− | I | + | Since the major edits are now in, and the redirect is closed, I think it's probably safe to go ahead and clean this discussion page back up. I'll wait for now however. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 03:40, 6 April 2010 (UTC) |
− | : | + | :(agreed, and cleaned up as per suggested) --[[User:Retro|Retro]] 05:53, 6 April 2010 (UTC) |
− | + | :: I'm shifting my attention back towards the various pages on fluid mechanics (water, flow, rivers, brooks, etc...). I've looked through the {{l|river}} and {{l|brook}} pages and pulled them forward into 2010 with minor editing. | |
+ | ::Meanwhile I am always keeping a close eye on the bug tracker for current news. If any new bugs are discovered that are relevant here, or if anything gets patched, I'll be sure to drop by over here and do updates. As for the rest of the content here, I'll let someone else worry about that for a while. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 20:04, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ||

::Yeah, ditto. I'll investigate later I guess. I suspect Priority Assignments allows you to re-prioritize what your dwarves are doing judging by its name, but can't tell how it works yet. The latter just seems to be for food/flask/water orders and the like but still going to put aside some time later to look into it --[[User:Retro|Retro]] 18:07, 6 April 2010 (UTC) | ::Yeah, ditto.

:::As far as I can tell Supplies is just to set up how much food and what drinks your military dwarves carry, meaning, (0/1/2/3) rations of food and (alcoholic/non-alcoholic/no) drinks. I assume it works much like the food or water for military squads used to in 40d, except that you can tell your dwarves to carry drinks in their waterskins instead of just water, so it's nothing fancy --[[User:Ramperkash|Ramperkash]] | :::As far as I can tell Supplies is just to set up how much food and what drinks your military dwarves carry, meaning, (0/1/2/3) rations of food and (alcoholic/non-alcoholic/no) drinks.

− | Gave '''[[ | + | Gave '''[[DF2010:Equipment|Equipment]]''' its own page, to be used for info on equipping soldiers, making/applying uniform templates, and will also serve as a good spot to store related summaries on weapons/armour much like '''[[40d:Equipment_and_encumbrance|this]]''' 40d page. Nothing there yet but we can move the stuff here into there and replace the current stuff with a summary, then expand within that page from there. |
On a side note, I'm working on a Category thing for Military v0.31 that we can apply instead of this See Also nonsense every time. I'll go add it when I'm done; getting there. --[[User:Retro|Retro]] 22:02, 6 April 2010 (UTC) | On a side note, I'm working on a Category thing for Military v0.31 that we can apply instead of this See Also nonsense every time.

+ | ==Squad or Squads?== | ||
+ | It occurs to me that this maybe should be the squad page instead of the squads page. I notice that the backwards link to 40d is non-functional as things are right now although that may be because there was no need for a squad page before. Anyhow, if this needs to be changed, I'm sure someone will take care of it sooner or later. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 04:35, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ||
+ | :Just checked; 40d's Squad redirected to the military. So it's a new page and we can basically do what we want with it. Personally I feel the plural is more appropriate as I say things like "rally your squads," "open the squads menu," "do this when scheduling your squads" more often than I use the singular. --[[User:Retro|Retro]] 04:38, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ||
+ | :: well, it's not a big deal, I'm just wondering if there's a consistency issue. Most pages are in the single form, not the plural form. But I guess it's a question for the admins to decide on, I won't worry about it. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 14:56, 8 April 2010 (UTC) | ||

:Sorry, I suppose I should've emphasized - you need to select a squad before you can use it, even if there's only one. In the squads screen you can do this with a / b / c (it'll list which squad = which key) or hold shift to select multiple at once. Should fix your problem; lemme know if it doesn't. --[[User:Retro|Retro]] 20:01, 11 April 2010 (UTC) | :Sorry, I suppose I should've emphasized - you need to select a squad before you can use it, even if there's only one.

:: Read the section on selecting a squad, it's there. There's just a ton of information to swallow so it's a bit overwhelming still.
