Revision as of 19:03, 31 October 2023

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Purpose

Both the Announcements section of the in game Settings and the announcements.txt file can be used to control the types of announcements are brought to the user's attention in Dwarf Fortress and how they will be displayed in various modes. This can be useful to add alerts for critical combat events, stopping the recentering upon birth events, or reducing the constant chatter of announcements like 'quota filled' or 'someone is visiting'.

The announcements.txt file reflects the in game Settings, Announcements tab. The table below has been updated with the Settings Announcement 'Name' which corresponds to its announcements.txt EVENT_LABEL (slightly less obvious than you may assume in some cases).

Community Awareness - Dwarf Fortress filesystem (/prefs/ vs /init/)

Dwarf Fortress supports editing DF/data/init/file to adjust the Default Announcements settings.
Editing the same file in DF/data/prefs/ will make changes to the Current settings.
This is the standard Dwarf Fortress file system organization.

In later versions (added in v50.10) a new in game Settings section, Announcements, was added which makes this process easier. Though the purpose of each announcement for each can still be a bit obtuse, this page offers some help.
The announcements.txt file still exists in both locations, be sure to modify the DF/data/prefs/ version to experience the change to the current settings if you're changing a formerly played install or current game.
This means that to confirm which announcement.txt EVENT_LABEL corresponds to an Announcement 'name' that you can,

  1. Open announcement.txt and identify the EVENT_LABEL you believe to be the right one
  2. Note it's :options
  3. Open Settings while in a game, and make a change to the Announcement 'name' you believe corresponds
  4. Clicking 'Done' and 'Return to game' will update DF/data/prefs/announcements.txt without exiting the game
  5. Reload announcement.txt and confirm the expected change to the :options of the EVENT_LABEL previously identified

Description Notes
Popup BOX or DO_MEGA Causes a box to appear in the middle of the screen, requiring a click on the Okay button to close it. If multiple boxes are displayed at the same time, the button says More and displays the next box. This is often used with game-changing announcements.
Pause P or PAUSE Pauses the game when the announcement occurs.
Recenter R or RECENTER Recenters the game to the location of the announcement when the announcement occurs. Commonly used for births, caravan arrivals, and ambushes. Use of this without the pause option is not recommended, since your screen will recenter without warning.
Adv A_D or A_DISPLAY Causes the announcement to be displayed at the bottom of the screen in adventure mode (and be viewable in the announcements list).
Fort D_D or D_DISPLAY Causes the announcement to appear under one of the categories at the left side of the screen in fortress mode. The default for minor announcements including profession changes, weather, job cancellations, and striking new minerals while mining.
While playing in Fortress mode, enabling/disabling Adv has no impact on your announcement experience.
Report UCR or UNIT_COMBAT_REPORT Causes the announcement to appear in all reports. A new report will be created if none are active. Commonly used for logging combat details.
Report (Active) UCR_A or UNIT_COMBAT_REPORT_ALL_ACTIVE Nearly identical to UNIT_COMBAT_REPORT, but does not create a new report if none are active. There is no difference between having 'Report (Active)/UCR_A' and 'Report/UCR' enabled verse having only 'Report/UCR' enabled. Use Report (Active)/UCR_A for things you want in the combat reports that would be too chatty to always generate a combat report for (Urist Falls down) but don't forget to disable 'Report/UCR' or you won't get the benefit.
Alert ALERT Causes the announcement to appear under the alert button at the left side of the screen in fortress mode.
