Advanced Burrows
— ATTENTION —
This mod needs DFHack to be installed. You can simply get it here (https://store.steampowered.com/app/2346660/DFHack__Dwarf_Fortress_Modding_Engine/)
This mod adds a few more options to interact with burrows:
- Add the possibility to ‘hide’ all other burrows when you’re editing one. No more hurting your eyes with trying to look through another burrow below!
- Simple button to turn on/off the burrow plugin from the DFHack with a little description on how it works.
- Possibility to assign all new dwarves to a particular burrow automatically. Once a day, a little script will be run to assign everyone to your favourite and safe burrow. It applied to all the citizens and residents of your fort.
Just to let you know how this magic is implemented and to warn you in advance. There’s no simple way to ‘hide’ burrows in the game, so I just remove them from the memory and cache them in another place. Because of this, it’s totally not recommended to unpause the game somehow when you’re editing Burrow. It could lead to bad consequences when some game/mod logic is trying to find a burrow, but can’t. To prevent it from happening, not intentionally, I added a pause window when you turn hiding on. But still, keep that in mind.
Q: Can I enable this mod in the existing save?
A: Sure thing, it will be automatically activated when you install/subscribe.
Q: Somehow, all my burrows removed except only one!
A: Read ‘How hiding burrow works’. It shouldn’t happen normally, but let me know if it is.
