Editing Unit list

The '''unit list''' is [[menu]] screen which lists [[creature]]s on the map. It is accessible with {{k|u}}, and is subdivided into four separate screens, whose individual counts are visible at the top of the screen. All have four options: {{k|v}}iewing the creature, zooming to the {{k|c}}reature location, opening the {{k|m}}[[manager|anager]], and {{k|r}}emoving a job order (although this is currently only usable for actual citizens).

The first and primary screen is the Citizens screen, which lists your dwarves according to their [[profession]]. Dwarves are ordered by category: [[mining]], [[carpentry]], [[stoneworker|stoneworking]], [[ranger]]s, [[metalsmith]]s, [[jeweler]]s, [[craftsdwarf|craftsdwarves]], [[fishery worker]]s, [[farmer]]s, [[peasant]]s, active-duty [[soldier]]s, [[children]], and finally [[children#Babies|babies]]. It shows the current [[job]] of each dwarf, highlighted in light blue; repeating tasks are additionally reported with a "/R" at the end, and joblessness is reported with {{DFtext|No Job|6:1}}. Any [[administrator]]s will appear in purple where they would appear normally according to their profession. Position in the sublists is determined by the order at which the dwarves arrived. If the unit's name is flashing in this list, it means that they have attained [[legendary]] skill level.

The second screen lists livestock. This is useful for quickly zooming to particular animals; most animal management actually happens in the animal [[status]] screen.

The third lists "Other". Any creatures that are neither dwarves nor dwarven livestock are listed under Other; this means that the list is populated by ''visible'' local [[biome|wildlife]] (there may be unseen creatures underground), [[caravan]] traders and guards (as well as their pack animals and for-sale animals), exposed [[thief|thieves]] and [[ambush]]es, the contents of [[siege]]s, and anything [[megabeast|really]] [[titan|scary]]. This list is most useful for zooming on their location, and lists a few statuses:
*{{DFtext|Wild animal|2:0}}: Wildlife.
*{{DFtext|Merchant|7:0}}: [[Merchant]]s, as well as their pack animals and wagons.
*{{DFtext|Diplomat|7:1}}: [[Diplomat]]s and [[outpost liaison]]s.
*{{DFtext|Guest|2:1}}: Foreign [[visitor]]s.
*{{DFtext|Friendly|2:1}}: All non-hostile creatures that do not fit into any of the categories above.
*{{DFtext|Invader|4:0}}: [[Siege]]s and [[ambush]]es.
*{{DFtext|Uninvited Guest|4:0}}: [[Megabeast]]s, [[semi-megabeast]]s, [[forgotten beast]]s and [[titan]]s.
*{{DFtext|Berserk|4:1}}: [[Werebeast]]s, [[Insanity|berserk]] dwarves and creatures with the [[Creature token|[CRAZED]]] token.
*{{DFtext|Undead|0:1}}: Undead, such as [[zombie]]s and [[ghost]]s.
*{{DFtext|Opposed to life|0:1}}: Creatures with the [[Creature token|[OPPOSED_TO_LIFE]]] token, hostile to all living creatures.
*{{DFtext|Hostile|4:0}}: All other hostile creatures.
This menu is important for keeping track of the local wildlife; regular looks may very well save you from a deadly [[giant lion]] attack.

The final list is the Dead/Missing list, which keeps tabs on everything that entered the map and didn't leave. This is the best record of your [[hunting]] returns, siege rebuffs, [[unfortunate accident|accident]] victims, and battle casualties. As a dead or missing list, it reports either {{DFtext|Deceased|5:1}} or {{DFtext|Missing|7:0}}; the missing status will be tacked on the moment a dwarf goes missing, not a week later as with the [[announcement]], making it extremely useful for checking for [[vampire]]s. For fortresses with long histories, this list may very well be hundreds or even thousands of units long. Note: cluttered unit lists can interfere with things like [[immigration]]; you can prune less interesting dead units with [[DFHack]]'s "fix/dead-units" command.

BUGS
sometimes, for no reason your dwarf's wagon will be labeled as "missing"

-[[File:unit_list_v50_preview.png|thumb|270px|right|Preview of the unit list.]]This menu tab, labelled '''Creatures''' in game, is separated into four tabs: [[Citizenship|Citizens]], [[Pet]]s/[[Livestock]], [[Invader|Others]], and Dead/Missing. It can be opened with {{k|u}} or by clicking on the first icon on the bottom left of the main [[interface]].

-Lists all residents of your fortress, including [[Visitor#Long-term residency|long-term residents]], but not [[visitor]]s.
-Each entry includes the following columns (from left to right):
+The second screen lists livestock. This is useful for quickly zooming to particular animals; most animal management actually happens in the animal [[status]] screen.
-* An image of the resident.
-* The [[name]]* and [[profession]]* of the resident, color-coded by profession.
-* Buttons to go to the resident's location or view their sheet.
-* The task* they are currently performing, along with (where applicable) buttons to go to its location, view a detailed description, remove the current worker from the task, [[suspend]] the task, and cancel the task.
-* The resident's current [[stress]] level*.
-* The resident's assigned [[work detail]]s preceded by a button to toggle whether they are allowed to do unassigned [[labor]]s.

+The third lists "Other". Any creatures that are neither dwarves nor dwarven livestock are listed under Other; this means that the list is populated by ''visible'' local [[biome|wildlife]] (there may be unseen creatures underground), [[caravan]] traders and guards (as well as their pack animals and for-sale animals), exposed [[thief|thieves]] and [[ambush]]es, the contents of [[siege]]s, and anything [[megabeast|really]] [[titan|scary]]. This list is most useful for zooming on their location, and lists a few statuses:
+*{{DFtext|Wild animal|2:0}}: Wildlife.
-When sorting by profession, they are not by alphabetical order, instead being sorted by [[Labor#List of labors|labor category]], then specific profession within the category, again not necessarily in alphabetical order. Children and babies are listed last. All sorting may be reversed, meaning for example, sorting by [[name]] may go A-Z or can be reversed to be Z-A.
+*{{DFtext|Merchant|7:0}}: [[Merchant]]s, as well as their pack animals and wagons.
+*{{DFtext|Diplomat|7:1}}: [[Diplomat]]s and [[outpost liaison]]s.

+*{{DFtext|Berserk|4:1}}: [[Werebeast]]s, [[Insanity|berserk]] dwarves and creatures with the [[Creature token|[CRAZED]]] token.
-* The [[Name#Animal and megabeast names|name]]* of the creature. The word "[[stray]]" indicates that the animal is not any dwarf's [[pet]]. In the case of [[War animal|war]] or [[Hunting animal|hunting animals]], it means the animal has not been assigned to a dwarf. Named animals are usually a pet, often of an [[Immigration|immigrant]], named before joining your fortress, although animals that have made a significant kill by also get a name.
+*{{DFtext|Undead|0:1}}: Undead, such as [[zombie]]s and [[ghost]]s.
-* Buttons to go to the creature's location or view the creature's sheet.
+*{{DFtext|Opposed to life|0:1}}: Creatures with the [[Creature token|[OPPOSED_TO_LIFE]]] token, hostile to all living creatures.

+*{{DFtext|Hostile|4:0}}: All other hostile creatures.
-* Buttons to assign a [[Animal trainer|trainer]], and to toggle if the creature should receive [[War animal|war training]] and/or [[Hunting animal|hunting training]].
+This menu is important for keeping track of the local wildlife; regular looks may very well save you from a deadly [[giant lion]] attack.
-* The creature's ownership status (see [[#Animal Ownership Status|below]] for options).

-''* The list is sortable by this column. Defaults to sorting by [[profession]], which is likely a bug, as this appears not to do anything but apply a semi-random order for animals.''
