AutoHotKey

Should autohotkey be added as a utility tool for dwarf fortress? I know a few forum users have used it to do repetitive tasks like room designations, maybe it could have its own page and a few dwarf fortress specific script?--Thehunterunseen 20:43, 31 October 2007 (EDT)

Ive been looking for a macro program that works within dwarf fortress and thats free. Havent found a good program thats the combination of both. What do you use? --Mizipzor 20:51, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
autohotkey [1] is a program like that --Thehunterunseen 21:13, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
That was the program I used. Wierd. For me, when I inputed "6" for moving one step right... it moved like 8 steps right or something. Couldnt figure out why. Any ideas? --Mizipzor 22:57, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
I know that shift + = 10×. Could that have something to do with it? --Savok 23:17, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
I use "Send {LeftArrow}{Enter}{Enter}", as a test to simply have the wall/floor im building to be placed one step to the right instead of where the cursor actually is. As previously said, however, it didnt work. --Mizipzor 07:05, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
So could some people who actually know some autohotkey scripts make an article and submit some? --Thehunterunseen 13:37, 6 November 2007 (EST)
I use it and more or less know how it works but as soon as I use it inside DF it bugs out completely and I have no idea why. --Mizipzor 17:56, 6 November 2007 (EST)

foreman.exe

Crap, can't finish this, or even format it properly because my connection is flaking out when I try to submit to the wiki.--Trukkle 20:28, 3 November 2007 (EDT)

Foreman is looking at the wrong address for the units... which is not a good sign, since I've seen it in the address it seems to be looking at. I've also seen it bounce around. Definitely not a good sign if the list location isn't static. Or we're just looking at the wrong one completely. --AzureLightning

Yourfilehost

Yourfilehost.com has kind of a lousy reputation, and I can confirm it's blocked on certain college networks. Could someone upload these utilities to a more reputable host? -- Mzbundifund 15:55, 04 November 2007 (EDT)

Such as? --Rick 18:03, 4 November 2007 (EST)

heal.exe

heal.exe does not regrow missing limbs. However, "heal -hurt" on the command line brings missing limbs to red status, and "heal" thereafter restores the being to full health.

I propose a -regrow parameter so we don't have to do this workaround, since if it's possible to bring missing limbs from dark grey to red status it's also possible to grow them back.

Also, when using the -hurt parameter, it still says "059E7210 had 31 body parts healed", when it should probably say "wounded". --JT 17:58, 10 November 2007 (EST)
