New string format

Offset Size Type Description
0x00 16 Character buffer Holds the string data if capacity < 16
0x00 4 Character pointer Points to the string data if capacity >= 16
0x10 4 Length Current length of the string
0x14 4 Capacity Current capacity of the string buffer (also indicates which mode the string is in)

Yes, the first two items overlap. This is correct. This is the MSVC Express string format - Toady appears to be using standard C++ structures pretty much everywhere.

Creature Structure

The creature vector is at 0x01415A00, so: List start: 0x01415A04 List end: 0x01415A08

Structure Offsets:

Offset Size Type Description
0x00 4 Vptr Virtual function table pointer
0x04 24 First name See above string format
0x32 4 Surname word 1 No part of speech, like in the old structure
0x36 4 Surname word 2
0x70 24 Custom profession name See above string format
0x88 2 Type ID #1 These two are wild guesses - I believe they are dwarf types. They appear to be duplicated (I'm told Toady stores the original dwarf type for legends) and I don't know which is the "old" and which is the "new". I've entered the values I've found in the Type ID table below. #2 is the current type.
0x8a 2 Type ID #2
0x8C 4 Creature Race A6 is the dwarf default (this may be different if the user has a mod installed)
0xe4 4 Flags (1 << 1) if creature is dead (redundant?)
0xe8 4 Flags (1 << 7) if creature is dead (redundant?)

(1 << 17) if creature is ready for slaughter

0x458 104 Labor preferences 104 1 byte bools, corresponding to the profession list.
