== Trees/Moss growing over sand ==
I was wonder if its possible to prevent trees and moss from growing on top of my sand collection area. I havent tested to see if this prevents collection, but I still dont want it there. [[User:Pfifo|Pfifo]] 19:41, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

'''Cheating''' is altering the game to make dwarf fortress easier. This is distinctly different from [[exploits]]. There are two main ways to alter the game: changing the game's raw source files (which are really just text files), and directly altering the game's memory (which requires special tools).

=Raw Editing=

For making modifications to a newly generated world, edit the raw files located in the '''dwarffortress/raw/objects''' folder ''before'' generating the game. For making modifications to an existing world, edit the raw files located in the '''raw/objects''' sub-folder of the [[saved game folder]] for that world.

The most common use of editing raw files is to get free items, such as {{L|gem}}s, {{L|adamantine}}, or {{L|flux}}.

When changing the raw files, you may or may not need to create a new world in order for your changes to be reflected.

Generally speaking, ''modifications'' to an existing entry in a raw file don't require a new world. Altering existing reactions or creatures is an example of this.

However, when adding or deleting entries, you need to create a new world for the changes to take place, and when deleting, it can and probably will render your old world unplayable as attempting to play worlds generated before the deletion will cause an error.

[[Shaostoul%27s Guide]] contains several cut & paste examples for editing raw files specifically for the purpose of cheating.

==Creature Token Modifications==
Modifying creature files does not require the creation of a new world. You can modify the physical attributes of a creature, make animals tamable and trainable, make your dwarves into short little bearded terminators, and much more.

===Instructions for use:===
# Open creature_standard.txt
# Find dwarven (or other creature) stats, which ought to resemble the sets below.
# Delete those stats and replace with the new set.
# Done.

*[http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ Notepad++] is recommended for altering raw files.

===Speedy Dwarves===
Getting bored with slow dwarves?

Go into the creature_standard file and add the [SPEED:1] in somewhere in the top section of the entry.(or SPEED:0 if you're up to some psychedelic light speed traveling)

This will make your dwarves do the majority of their actions '''''super''''' fast, including moving, digging and workshop actions.

This may, ironically, lower FPS when a high population is present, but no more than what doing many actions at once would.
To avoid this, add [SPEED:3] instead. Even [SPEED:100] is ridiculously fast.
(Warning, editing this in may cause the game to crash or freeze for a few seconds. {{Verify}})

===No Needs Dwarves===

Not wanting to care for your dwarves? simply add [NO_EAT], [NO_SLEEP], and [NO_DRINK] to your dwarves' raws and never care for them again. (Warning when editing [NO_SLEEP], because sometimes dwarves will rest and just never wake up{{Verify}})

As an added bonus, try adding [NOFEAR], [NOBREATHE], [NOSTUN], [NONAUSEA], [NOPAIN], [NO_DIZZINESS], [NO_FEVERS], and [NOEXERT] as well.

(Warning, editing this may cause the game to crash.{{Verify}})

Other potential problems include but are not limited to unhappiness due to never drinking any booze, and insane dwarves with no viable avenues for suicide; not that they can't be [[Unfortunate_accident|assisted in such endeavors]].

* Removing the [ALCOHOL_DEPENDENT] tag should alleviate the problem of unhappiness due to never drinking booze.

===Pets for everyone===
Ever want Cave dragons, Giant cave spiders, or even Helmet snakes for pets?<br />
Simply add [PET] and [COMMON_DOMESTIC] to the creature of your choice then generate a new world. Enjoy killing the local elephant population with your army of Giant cave spiders.
Also if you want them to not be caged, cut out their raw file and transfer it to the bottom part of the creature_domestic.txt file and change the [FANCIFUL] token into the [NATURAL] token

''Note: Pets may be '''expensive'''. '' Which is why you set [PETVALUE:1]

===Tinkering with the Dwarven Soul===
By messing with the soul of a dwarf, you can drastically increase attributes and learning rates. Below is notes and a copy-paste section of text that you can use in the creature_standard.txt file, in which you replace the existing dwarf attributes. You can also utilize this code with the Castes, if you want to specify what parts of your society get what. The most easily adjustable portion of the castes is with the Males and Females.

Please note that in v31.03 of Dwarf Fortress, most of the mental attributes and Skill_Rate's learning speed is broken. This should change after the Merge, since Toady will be able to correct bugs and fully implement the Soul system.

ATT_RANGE dictates the level of effectiveness a being receives in an ability. 5,000 is the max. Please note that the elves get "5,000" in the memory stat, for the entire range. Humans get a default of 1,000, and presumably the same goes for any other creature that doesn't have a specified range.

Below, the ATT_RATES tag basically determines how quickly you gain and lose an attribute. The first value indicates cost. The lower it is, the better. The other values are for dictating the rate of decay, so keeping them at "NONE" basically nullifies that aspect. Don't use "0" for the first value, it crashes the game. Default for the first value is 500. If there is no number, the default will be used. I believe that you can use negative numbers, which further increases the gain of attributes, since the ceiling to the next attribute level is lowered by the negative percentage you use.

ATT_RATES (Default is 500:2:3:2]
* ATTRIBUTE Token
* cost to improve
* unused counter rate
* rust counter rate
* demotion counter rate

[PHYS_ATT_RATES:STRENGTH:-5000:NONE:NONE:NONE]

The game comes pre-stocked with several sets of attribute ranges, some better than others. The signs that come after the numeral ranges indicate what level that range represents, but has no effect in of themselves.

0:0:0:0:0:0:0] unattainable

0:100:200:300:400:450:500] ---

0:400:600:750:800:900:1100] --

150:600:800:900:1000:1100:1500] -

5000:5000:5000:5000:5000:5000:5000] max

Skill rates is a tag that grants you a % of skill improvement. The first number is the percentage, while the last three slots indicate decay. Furthermore, I believe that it is capped at 5,000%. Default is 100, but creatures with Slow Learner tag will get half of that. The skill acceleration doesn't work currently, which is believed to be a bug. The information here is a placeholder until that is corrected.

SKILL_RATE (Default is 100:8:8:16]
* % of improvement points you get
* unused counter rate
* rust counter rate
* demotion counter rate

[SKILL_RATES:5000:NONE:NONE:NONE]

PHYS_ATT_CAP_PERC
MENT_ATT_CAP_PERC

The default value is 200% of a dwarf's median+starting stats. This tag caps the amount of improvement to be had in an attribute. Below, I have cranked it up to 5,000%, hoping that it would let all dwarves achieve maximum attributes.

===Enemy race dies in a pink cloud===
Causes all creatures of a type to go *poof* in a little pink cloud. Put this under the creature you want to never appear again. Goodbye invasions! [[DF2010:Utilities#Runesmith|Runesmith]] can also remove species easily.

[SELECT_MATERIAL:ALL]
[BOILING_POINT:0]
[STATE_COLOR:ALL:PINK]
[STATE_NAME_ADJ:GAS:poof!]

Warning: As with all cheats that involve the words "[BOILING_POINT:0]", the mist created when the creature boils will be very cold. In fact, 0 DF degrees is many thousands of real-world degrees below absolute zero. Such cold temperatures will rapidly degrade weak items like cloth and leather, and may pose a danger to dwarves caught in the cloud without adequate cold weather clothing. You might have to experiment to find a temperature that will guarantee boiling without posing a danger to your dwarves.

Note: You must add this text after all the material you want to boil is defined. To be safe, just place it at the very end.

==Reaction Additions==
There are now two reaction files: reaction_smelter and reaction_other. Additions to these lists will not take effect until you generate a new world. Note that if you edit an existing reaction entry (leaving the [REACTION:NAME] line unchanged) rather than add a new one, you will not need to generate a new world. Don't forget to add [PERMITTED_REACTION:(reaction)] under [ENTITY:MOUNTAIN] in entity_default raw.

===Skill Practice Workshops===
A useful application of the new workshop/reaction setup is the Practice Workshop: loaded with no-reagent no-product reactions tied to every quality-based skill, it's an excellent way to get the most out of scarce resources and to train workers who utilize said resources (Jewelers, Craftsdwarves, etc).

Create a new raw called building_practice_workshop in \raw\objects, and within it paste the following (ripped nigh-straight out of Lazureus' Crematorium package):

===Easy Flux, Sand, and Ore===
Add [REACTION_CLASS:FLUX] to any stone you have to turn it into a flux. This is in inorganic_stone_mineral, or inorganic_stone_layer Or, add [METAL_ORE:{metal name}:100] to turn it into an ore. It also bears noting that the metal can easily be an alloy, like steel or brass. Likewise, open inorganic_stone_soil and add [SOIL_SAND] to any soil to turn it into sand suitable for making glass with.

None of these cheats require creating a new world. Turn peat into glass, basalt into platinum, and combine iron, diorite, and coal to make steel.

===Easy Metal===
Open reaction_smelter and change any reactions you like. Remove the [FUEL] tag.
to make them require no fuel. Remove the line(s) headed with [REAGENT:whatever] to make them require no reagents. You can pick any metal that exists in the game, as long as you pick the right raw name. (For example: IRON, PEWTER_LAY, and NICKEL_SILVER makes iron, lay pewter, and nickel silver respectively.)

Memory Hacking is much harder than raw editing, and requires [[utilities|special tools]]. At present, tools that have been adapted to DF2010 include [[Utilities#Reveal|Reveal]], which allows you to see the whole map (though be warned- it also releases [[Hidden Fun Stuff]]) and [[Utilities#DFHack|DFhack]], a versatile tool which includes, among other things, a liquids hack that lets you place [[water]] or [[magma]] of a depth you choose into a square and "dfprospector," which tells you what minerals are available on the map.

''Two dozen'' consecutive edits? "Preview" just not a possibility?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 20:14, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

== cv ==
So, forgive my continuing ignorance, but once the changeover happens, "cv" will then become whatever version 2010 is, right? And if so, how do we then distinguish between redirects appropriate only to the 40d legacy articles (which are currently being "corrected" using CV) and those that should go to the then truly "current version" 2010 articles?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 21:45, 21 March 2010 (UTC)

== search terms and redirects ==

So a redirect chain like Gold bars -> 40d:Gold bars -> 40d:metal is correct, don't change it. Emi
Hi. I'm ''sure'' what you meant was to ask ''"Why did you delete that?"'', and not presume to lecture me about how redirects work. And my response would be - ''"Why did you create it?"'' Because I didn't "change" it, I ''deleted'' it - and there's a difference, and a difference in the reasoning behind each.

"Gold bars" is not really a term to link from, just not appropriate for a page title. It's not a term likely to be typed in to the search window, nor is it a wiki-article title in game terms. [[Gold]] is a perfectly valid (and existing) search term, and [[bars]] are as well, but not in the sense of "gold bars", unless you are [[construction|constructing]] horizontal or vertical bars from a single '''[[bar]]''' of [[gold]] ("bars" of gold being distinct from a "bar" of gold, for better or worse). And it's not usually a policy to create redirects, even Search redirects, based on erroneous understandings of the layout of the wiki. (If so, "silver bars", "copper bars", "bismuth bronze battle axe" and "narrow giant cave spider silk trousers" could all be included by some well meaning user based on one User's example - and that's more work than I want. Or any Admin.) More, "gold bars" is plural, which breaks yet another rule. So why, pray, do we need it in the first place? Lastly, if "gold bars" ''were'' a valid search or redirect term, I would think it should redirect to either "bar", the item (to clarify what a "bar" is, gold or not), or "gold" (the [[material]], to address that aspect), rather than [[metal]], which doesn't address the actual term, but is only a generally related umbrella article - but that confusion gets back to the reason I deleted it in the first place. I didn't even notice it was you that had created that page, but if I had I would have asked you this before deleting it. So... since we're here, why ''did'' you see a need to create it in the first place?

And while we're on the subject, you seem to be fairly enthusiastic about redirecting every game term to cv:game term - even if they are NOT version specific. You may want to slow down before hitting every last one, since things like [[acronym]]s and such will then have to be tracked down and returned to mainspace existence. Several in the long, long list on [[:Category:Obsolete]] seem more than a bit suspect, but I suppose now that it's done only the new version will prove them so or not. --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:47, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
I agree that it's maybe a silly redirect, however, right now I am making sure
these redirects all work properly
Use some discretion. I saw a page marked N(ew), and it didn't belong. If you recognize it as "silly", then don't go to the trouble to perpetuate it. And allow me to make something else clear that you should understand. Before you replace a page that Admin has deleted, you should ask them "why?" first. Thanks so much for your understanding on that last point.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:07, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
Discretion only slows down serializable tasks like the one I was doing. It's much easier to follow the
same pattern over and over and then go back and do all the stuff necessary to remove a silly redirect
So you are going to cover all those "silly" redirects that require it? Reassuring to hear - so long as someone has it covered, no problem then.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:18, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
Also, because there's no real reason not to have most of these redirects, it's silly to bother
checking each one before fixing them. If the admins at this wiki are of the "I'm an admin, so my
word is law" attitude, I'm not sure this is a place I want to be.
If that were the case, I would have simply acted high-handed and slapped you and not explained my reasoning - but we both know I didn't, so I'm left wondering why you even mention it. Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for ''your'' reason for replacing the page that an Admin deleted rather than asking them why they did it. Even if you ''were'' Admin, do you think that is a good approach to the situation?--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 03:24, 27 March 2010 (UTC)
I didn't notice that you had deleted it until after I had recreated it.
I see.
I ask again if you use either of those other communication methods...
it's much easier to work these things out in real time.
No, sorry. And as Admin of this wiki, I feel it's important to use this format to work these things out. Which (I hope) we've now done. Readya later.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 17:45, 28 March 2010 (UTC)

== EmiBot's Standing Orders ==
Will it do that daily/hourly? B/c new pages are flying up without it. I agree it's overly long, and I thought about that, but it'll only be long for these first few days, until the immediate flurry has calmed a bit, then we back off. Right now, it's amateur hour out there, so any help is a good thing in those directions. (No automatic fixes? Urgh -that's a LOT of manual...) :P --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 20:08, 2 April 2010 (UTC)<br />
Again, I find myself waiting on an answer to my question while you focus on your own agenda - still waiting, thanks.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 21:06, 2 April 2010 (UTC)

==Deletion Template==
I explained my reasoning on the talk page, but in short: (1)The mod is not at all notable. (I am not willing to claim a notable mod would not deserve a page on its own, but this is a mod that adds 4 creatures and no one talks about - hardly deserving of a page). (2) There is only one relevant piece of information about this mod - where it can be found. (3) The page doesn't even include that information, and is thus useless. (4) A link to the mod on DFFD or its forum thread, and a very short blurb ("adds 4 new mega beasts") should be added to a general mod page if the mod is going to have a presence on the wiki. --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 05:43, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:Ah, sure, i can do that. I honestly just took a stab in the dark that deletion was the right template, and didn't actually know there were options... la la la? --[[User:Squirrelloid|Squirrelloid]] 06:39, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

== [[Template:Alloy3]] ==

I wasn't sure who to mention this to, and I apologize if it has already been noted, but this template is in use on 40d pages while the link built into the template for [[construction]] links to the "2010" namespace. Not sure what the best way to fix it would be, as I assume that the template will continue to be used. --[[User:Soy|Soy]] 16:10, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
:Thanks for looking into that! However, it looks like this is going to be an issue with a lot of the existing templates that are used across both versions. I think I see what your fix does and if I get some free time this evening I would be happy to try to update what I can find unless you can think of any negative impact it would have. -- [[User:Soy|Soy]] 19:32, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

==nm==
Yeah, I spoke before I read his talk page. And I remembered it as CMD. And he's right in that that's how it "should" be - the fact that it's not how it is in-game just an awkward DF reality. Altho', I see it as a style issue, not a coding issue.--[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:36, 8 April 2010 (UTC)
I probably still would have argued for Cmd with a redirect from CMD.
That's not an issue to take up over one page - that's a global style issue, and would change the established, existing guidelines on [[Dwarf_Fortress_Wiki:Community_Portal]]. (Not that I wouldn't mind seeing some change, but (unsurprisingly) mine are style-based critiques.) --[[User:Albedo|Albedo]] 02:39, 8 April 2010 (UTC)

:Personally, i would've gone for a template that marks an ip, or user. Maybe like it being called UserReport, or Report, and then people could do the template thing to report a user. Not sure how that could be coded in, but it could allow administrators to be more warned and prepared to provide a look at the ip. To be honest, all these spambots are just strange.

I, err, don't play the ANSI version. Only tried it once for about five minutes. Ever since then, I've downloaded versions with the graphics pre-installed. So I'm not sure what a Dwarven Bathtub looks like if you use the default tiles? The image is only used on the {{L|cleaning}} page, so it's not like there's a lot to change, though. The only thing I'm sure about is that the ramps are the same in both. [[User:Uristocrat|Uristocrat]] 09:16, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

In the '''supplies tab''' - at least now in 31.03 - you can actually change these settings with the 4 upper right keys on the num pad - as is shown a little inconspicuously in the upper left pane of your screenshot too.

=== Part time Militia? ===
Inactive is a full schedule of empty orders, causing your dwarves to do nothing but sit around and
individually train if they are a certain military skill level
(otherwise they'll retain their civilian jobs).

Whoa, wait a minute! At what point do they go full military? If they're "retaining their civilian jobs" will they still train? Does this mean I could create an ROTC squad, set to Inactive, and have them learning new labor-skills while also occasionally training? Would it be wise for my early-game dwarves to all belong to at least one squad or another, training wrestling maneuvers, etc? [[User:Romeofalling|Romeofalling]] 07:47, 17 August 2010 (UTC)

== strip paving ==

Dwarves seem a bit inconsistent in how willing they are to move items around to finish the job. I got around this by laying strips of pavement out, and they proceeded with much fewer cancellations. This spreads the architecture training around, and since each strip is a separate object, they all have individual chances to impress dwarves walking over them.

:I was having lots of trouble too. The items are forbidden, and refuse isn't gathered from outside. Currently going to try building a line of kennels or another 5x5 building and stripping in blocks of 5x5.

Do building destroyers target roads? If so, this seems like a good way to delay them, and keep total damages under control.
[[User:Uzu Bash|Uzu Bash]] 22:14, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

== King? ==

What about the road-value requirement for the King's arrival? how does it work/shouldn't it be explained in the article?

== Roads are a floor covering? ==
You can construct them on constructed floors. They seem to be like stockpiles in this regard. Paved roads prevent the 'broken ammo' graphic from showing up, is the 'broken ammo' another kind of floor covering? I paved my archery ranges with roads, to make them look nice and use up some colored blocks I didn't want, and I noticed a nice bonus: no more broken bolts littering up the range. Adding this for paved roads, does it work for dirt roads too? [[User:GhostDwemer|GhostDwemer]]

== Ambush, Seige ==
Im loosing a lot of caravans due to ambushes, It says here that if I build a road to the edge of the map, then ... and this is where I get lost... That the caravans will ALWAYS use that road. Dose that mean if caravns are always entering in the SW corner and I build a road heading east all the way off the map. Then the caravan will show up on the North side from then on and follow my road safely into the fort while the ambushers Urinate on my electric fences. Any general pointers that do not require a military, and will work above ground is good enough in case any of you found a solution to a similiar problem.
