Suggestions
Use <br> on the lines with multiple fields, such as the color settings, if you want it to look like the actual text file does.
A good practice is simply to put that break tag on the end of every line of the formatted text. --Edward 20:01, 27 December 2007 (EST)
Ok did that. Thanks. Jikor
Mouse Setting
I'm one who prefers not to have the mouse involved in gameplay, yet I find that using NO or FALSE for the mouse setting still allows mouse use for designating tiles.
While this is useful for allowing mouse-based macros for room designs (as opposed to keyboard-based of course) it is still a thorn in my side.
I'm looking for confirmation/refutation of this, and any discovered fix to make it truly [MOUSE:NO].

- I've experienced this as well in v0.27.176.38c. I did not notice any change after using YES, NO, and FALSE. Elvang 23:21, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
Article for Deletion?
Do we need this page? What is the purpose of it? --Savok 00:11, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
- I suppose its more of a reference for those who screw up or need to revert their init.txt file without redownloading the game. Elvang 01:32, 4 June 2008 (EDT)
Re-organize?
This may just be me, but I find that having the preference before the text explaining it helps to make this page more understandable. For instance,
[SOUND:ON]
Change this to turn sound off.
is much more readable than
Change this to turn sound off.
[SOUND:ON]

Pop cap minimum?
Is it just me, or is the minimum population count ten? I set it for seven (wanting an isolationist settlement), and I wound up with ten dwarves, but no more come despite me now having plenty of cash to attract them, and only one death (three years ago). --Erathoniel 22:00, 10 November 2008 (EST)
- Quite possibly. It is known that popcap settings go wonky if you set them too low. --Savok 10:23, 27 November 2008 (EST)
Show magma on embark screen?
I've seen several mentions of, but no description of how to, use the init file to show where magma is on the embark screen. Anyone? --Azaram 02:02, 28 November 2008 (EST)
- I've updated the page. It now reflects the exact contents of the default init.txt for 40d. I'm also going to add a couple of anchors throughout the text so that we can jump directly to certain key things within the transcript.
For your question, try searching your init.txt for "FINDER". You'll get there. --GreyMaria 02:29, 28 November 2008 (EST)
Anchors
So was it a good idea to do this? Any other things to link to? :V --GreyMaria 21:54, 28 November 2008 (EST)
TEXTURE_PARAM
So what does it do? Will making this NEAREST help FPS?--Ar-Pharazon 09:58, 10 August 2009 (UTC)
