- Here is the job priorities release. It should work fine with old saves, though existing hauling jobs may need to work themselves out for a bit. Further job prioritization work can be done when we get through the framework for start scenarios, since we'll better understand how dwarves fit into the fortress at that time.
- —Toady One, December 18, 2014
New stuff[edit]
- New job selection process where dwarves choose important tasks with more regularity
- Very important jobs can remove dwarves from less important jobs
- Ability to prioritize a job so that it gets done immediately
- Mining, engraving and other designation jobs can now be prioritized numerically
- Designation jobs can be placed in a "marker only" mode, marker can be removed later to start work
- Mining jobs can be set to automatically follow veins and clusters
- Mining designation can be set to only select visible gems or useful stone
Major bug fixes[edit]
