Identification
I have all my dogs assigned to a pasture. Now I want to assign some to a chain but can't determine which one I have chosen and need to remove from the pasture. So far my attempts leads to a constant circle of put on chain<->put back to pasture.
How does one solve this? Or is there no point in using chains anymore and I should just use a one-tile pasture? --Old Ancient 18:38, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be any easy way to identify animals currently. From the list, all you can see is their species, gender, and training status. If you wanted to, you could mark the animal you want for adoption, which will eventually give it a name, but then you end up with owners' responsibilities too. Hopefully we can assign animals nicknames in the next version :) --Lethosor (talk) 20:14, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
- From Restraint: Animals assigned to a restraint are not automatically de-assigned from a pasture, leaving your dwarves to drag the animal back and forth repeatedly.Bug:4475
- To workaround this bug, you can try:
- manually removing the creature from the pasture (it will be shown with a restraint icon near the top of the pasture list menu)
- only assigning non-pastured creatures to restraints
- assigning your pastured creature to a cage first, then reassigning it to a restraint (cages of different colors can help assign the correct creature for a specific location)
- This bug is annoying; despite being familiar with it I still find my dwarves hauling animals back and forth on occasion.--Loci 19:38, 1 April 2013 (UTC)
