DFHack 53.02-r2
[h2]Highlights[/h2][h3]Building planner[/h3][p]The building planner has been updated to properly construct reinforced walls with the correct number and types of components, to support the new facings on catapults and ballistas, and to support the new bolt thrower. As a side benefit, the reinforced wall planner also provides a means to bypass the crash/corruption bug in DF's vanilla material selector for reinforced walls, so if you want to build reinforced walls without the risk of crashing or corrupting your game, you can now use DFHack's building planner to do it.[/p][h3]Cleanconst[/h3][p]The `cleanconst` tool has been updated to skip reinforced walls, since it's our expectation that the mechanic it uses won't properly refund the original build materials on deconstruction.[/p][h2]Announcements[/h2][h3]PSAs[/h3][p]As always, remember that, just like the vanilla DF game, DFHack tools can also have bugs. It is a good idea to save often and keep backups of the forts that you care about. Some DFHack tools that worked in previous (pre-Steam) versions of DF have not been updated yet and are marked with the "unavailable" tag in their docs. If you try to run them, they will show a warning and exit immediately. You can run the command again to override the warning (though of course the tools may not work). We make no guarantees of reliability for the tools that are marked as "unavailable". The in-game interface for running DFHack commands ( gui/launcher ) will not show "unavailable" tools by default. You can still run them if you know their names, or you can turn on dev mode by hitting Ctrl-D while in gui/launcher and they will be added to the autocomplete list. Some tools listed as "unavailable" in the docs do not compile yet and are not accessible at all, even when in dev mode. If you see a tool complaining about the lack of a cursor, know that it's referring to the keyboard cursor (which used to be the only real option in Dwarf Fortress). You can enable the keyboard cursor by entering mining mode or selecting the dump/forbid tool and hitting Alt-K (the DFHack keybinding for toggle-kbd-cursor ). We're working on making DFHack tools more mouse-aware and accessible so this step isn't necessary in the future.[/p][h2]Changelog[/h2][h3]Fixes[/h3]
