A new image should probably be uploaded to this page to reflect the changes to the screen (colour coding, squads etc.). Some parts of the article will have to be rewritten. --Kingzilla 16:42, 7 February 2008 (EST)
sewer brew? really?
One of my dwarves seriously has a preference for sewer brew and he arrived without it, too. Could it be that he nipped from that barrel the dead elf *snicker* dropped and liked it? Well, i guess thats what they call an acquired taste then.--Koltom 21:48, 28 March 2008 (EDT)
colors
I have seen a dwarf who preferred a color, instead of a material, for clothing. can someone else confirm this?
- Previous unsigned comment by Strangething
- I've definitely seen color preferences - is that for clothing? Often its a pretty random color that i've never seen in clothing though. --Squirrelloid 15:47, 25 April 2008 (EDT)
- Does a preference for, say, "the color yellow" apply to gypsum walls? Is it just dyes?--Dadamh 13:14, 29 May 2008 (EDT)
Doesn't really care about anything anymore
What exactly does this tag mean, and what triggers it?
- Having a lot of their friends killed and/or killing a lot of things. I'm pretty sure the latter is the actual trigger, but the former sounds more likely from a psychological standpoint. :p Anyways, I believe its effect is that the dorf is less likely to be cheered up or depressed by external stimuli. Which may be a plus, since it's usually the soldiers who get this (at least in my case) and they tend to go through crap that ruin their day on daily basis. --Sz 04:21, 24 December 2009 (UTC)
Quality
Preferences can have a huge effect on quality: My Dabbling bone crafter who likes amulets made a superior quality amulet.
Experience gain?
I think that preferences might somehow affect experience gain rates. For example, I chose a dwarf who likes picks to be a miner, and he quickly became legendary in it. I am not sure if it was because he liked picks, or if he just got it because he was my only miner at the time and I had him working constantly...
- Preferences do not affect experience gain rates. Mining is generally a quick to learn skill, especially if you have only one miner who does all the work.
