40d:Macros and keymaps
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Playing Dwarf Fortress means lots of typing. Although the game (as of version v0.27.176.38c) has no internal macro/keymap system, using an external program can save you a great deal of time when dumping, rewalling, designating, and so forth.
- Go to Utilities#AutoHotKey and download AutoHotKey. Installation is simple and the program uses few system resources.
- Write macro scripts (file type .ahk), which may contain any number of commands. You activate scripts by double-clicking .ahk files and deactivate them by right-clicking the AutoHotKey icon on the task bar. Both of these can be done at any time - even right in the middle of a game. AutoHotKey also allows for automated activation of scripts.
AutoHotKey Examples
Dumping
Stock Screen Dump
Taken from an old version of Jackard's user page.
To use, first have your bookeeper do enough desk work so you can view individual items in the stocks listing. Then bring it up and press del to quickly mark stuff. To adjust the key repeat rate, edit the KEY_HOLD_MS value in \data\init\init.txt.
del::
IfWinActive Dwarf Fortress
{
send d{down}
return
}
else
{
send {del}
return
}
Designation Dump
A dumping script by Dukederek:
This script uses a system similar the commands in the designations menu to mark most of the contents of a large area for dumping. My talk page has more detailed instruction.
Essentially you need to create two text files with the following titles and content. When playing DF it is safe to have blockdumpinit running constantly as long as you dont plan on using the ctrl-d combination for something else.

Rewalling
Taken from Valdemar's user page.
This is a macro to aid with rewalling. To use, copy-paste the script into a new .ahk file and run the script with AutoHotkey. Then, in Dwarf Fortress, press b-C-w, move the cursor to where you want to start the wall, and hold Ctrl-Shift-Arrowkey, using the direction you want to rewall in. To build floors, press b-C-f instead, and use Ctrl-Alt-Arrowkey. To stop, just release the keys.
The script will use the first material in the list. I suggest you create a stockpile near the construction site that only accepts the item you wish to build with and temporarily forbid any nearby materials you don't want to build with.

Embark Settings macros
These macros are used to ease the setup of skills and supplies before you embark.
Food-buying macro
This macro buys all the 2 cost meat items available at the start screen. Simply go to the item screen, erase the random food items the game starts you with, and press F2. By Napsterbater.

Useless, becuse the types of meat you can take with you varies with each world/civ. It will work with the civ you wrote it for, but not for the overwhelming majority of others--Dorten 05:08, 2 April 2008 (EDT)
Just realized this. Whoops - Napsterbater
I'll go ahead and delete this soon.
Improved Food/Alcohol buying macro
This macro buys all the cost-2 food (that I have seen), as well as the four types of alcohol. Just press ctrl+f on the Items screen. It can deal with meat or drink that you already have, or is not currently featured. By Redfenix.

Room-designation macros
Valdemar's Designator Macro
This macro can read a spreadsheet and designate rooms according to it. Forum Thread/Download
Fedor's chambered circle
A circular room with eight equal-sized chambers, suitable for everything from housing to workshops to a mausoleum.
See this macro in action
Macro text
Valdemar's bedroom complex
A large fractal bedroom/dining complex, with 56 bedrooms and room for 24 tables.
You can press Alt-B to create a bedroom block, or Alt-C to create a full complex with 4 bedroom blocks and a dining block in the center.
Note - the macro is much faster than the demo movie shows, it is done in under a minute.
Tulip's room macros
Based on the bedroom designs.
^g means alt+g, !g means ctrl+g, and so on. Open up the designations window before using these:
; This will make a basic 'x' pattern workshop/room layout
; and will 'land' back on the same tile it starts on each time,
; which happens to be the center.
; It is modified so that you will have 3 staircases, and an extra tile
; because many workshops do not have corner access.

The MOUSE control
For unrivaled mouse control in DF try this DF Mouse script
4-Pour Water Creation script
For Automating creation of water using Gibbeds Tweak.
;
; 4-pour.ahk
; Dwarf fortress water creation script.
;
;Use this script in conjunction with Gibbeds Dwarf Fortress Tweak to create endless amounts of water.;
;
;Directions
;
;1. Have DF running and position the screen such that when you press "K" the X will appear where you
;want the water to appear.
;2. Have Gbbed's Dwarf Fortress tweak running in the background (with the proper process selected)
;3. run the 4-pour script
;4. press alt-p to get Pouring
;
;The script will then begin a cycle that moves the cursor around in a little 2x2 square editing each
;tile to have 7/7 of water, it then pauses for a half a seond to let the water flow a bit, and repeats.
;It does this until you..
;
;5. press and hold <shift> to stop
;
;As always, save before you experiment with this
;I hold no responsibility for what this script ends up doing to your dwarves/fortress/computer/carpet
;Feel free to clean it up, make it more usable, whatever
;
;
#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory.
