− | '''Animal caretaking''' | + | '''Animal caretaking''' is the [[skill]] used by [[dwarves]] to treat any [[wound|injured]] [[pet]] assigned to them, as long as they have the [[labor]] enabled. It is entirely non-functional, but dwarves can inexplicably gain experience in it during worldgen, leading to animal caretakers appearing in [[migrant]] waves. |
− | + | Veterinary medicine is an expected feature that has not yet been implemented into the game, so animal caretaking does not actually serve a purpose as of yet.{{bug|349}} Wounded animals will instead heal on their own - or not at all. This makes even your greatest animal caretakers equivalent to [[peasant]]s. Animal caretaking is [http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?msg=7312290 not planned to be implemented in the near future], and as such, animal caretakers who arrive in migrant waves should be immediately repurposed into other, actually functional professions. | |
− | + | While non-functional in the vanilla game, the utility [[Utility:DFHack|DFHack]] can be used to make animal caretaking work through the {{DFtext|dwarfvet enable|white}} command; when the plugin is active, injured pets will rest in any [[activity zone]] marked as '''both''' a hospital and a training zone, where dwarves will then provide them with the necessary care. The command {{DFtext|dwarfvet disable|white}} can be used to disable the plugin if necessary. | |
