labormanager
|
|
|
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
|
A more advanced alternative to `autolabor`.
|
|
|
|
|
Automatically manage dwarf labors to efficiently complete jobs.
|
|
|
|
|
Labormanager is derived from autolabor (above) but uses a completely
|
|
|
|
|
different approach to assigning jobs to dwarves. While autolabor tries
|
|
|
|
|
to keep as many dwarves busy as possible, labormanager instead strives
|
|
|
|
|
to get jobs done as quickly as possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Labormanager frequently scans the current job list, current list of
|
|
|
|
|
dwarfs, and the map to determine how many dwarves need to be assigned to
|
|
|
|
|
what labors in order to meet all current labor needs without starving
|
|
|
|
|
any particular type of job.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. warning::
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
*As with autolabor, labormanager will override any manual changes you
|
|
|
|
|
make to labors while it is enabled, including through other tools such
|
|
|
|
|
as Dwarf Therapist*
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Simple usage:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
:enable labormanager: Enables the plugin with default settings.
|
|
|
|
|
(Persistent per fortress) :disable labormanager: Disables the plugin.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anything beyond this is optional - autolabor works fairly well on the
|
|
|
|
|
default settings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default priorities for each labor vary (some labors are higher
|
|
|
|
|
priority by default than others). The way the plugin works is that, once
|
|
|
|
|
it determines how many of each labor is needed, it then sorts them by
|
|
|
|
|
adjusted priority. (Labors other than hauling have a bias added to them
|
|
|
|
|
based on how long it's been since they were last used, to prevent job
|
|
|
|
|
starvation.) The labor with the highest priority is selected, the "best
|
|
|
|
|
fit" dwarf for that labor is assigned to that labor, and then its
|
|
|
|
|
priority is *halved*. This process is repeated until either dwarfs or
|
|
|
|
|
labors run out.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because there is no easy way to detect how many haulers are actually
|
|
|
|
|
needed at any moment, the plugin always ensures that at least one dwarf
|
|
|
|
|
is assigned to each of the hauling labors, even if no hauling jobs are
|
|
|
|
|
detected. At least one dwarf is always assigned to construction removing
|
|
|
|
|
and cleaning because these jobs also cannot be easily detected. Lever
|
|
|
|
|
pulling is always assigned to everyone. Any dwarfs for which there are
|
|
|
|
|
no jobs will be assigned hauling, lever pulling, and cleaning labors. If
|
|
|
|
|
you use animal trainers, note that labormanager will misbehave if you
|
|
|
|
|
assign specific trainers to specific animals; results are only guaranteed
|
|
|
|
|
if you use "any trainer", and animal trainers will probably be
|
|
|
|
|
overallocated in any case.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Labormanager also sometimes assigns extra labors to currently busy
|
|
|
|
|
dwarfs so that when they finish their current job, they will go off and
|
|
|
|
|
do something useful instead of standing around waiting for a job.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is special handling to ensure that at least one dwarf is assigned
|
|
|
|
|
to haul food whenever food is detected left in a place where it will rot
|
|
|
|
|
if not stored. This will cause a dwarf to go idle if you have no
|
|
|
|
|
storepiles to haul food to.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dwarfs who are unable to work (child, in the military, wounded,
|
|
|
|
|
handless, asleep, in a meeting) are entirely excluded from labor
|
|
|
|
|
assignment. Any dwarf explicitly assigned to a burrow will also be
|
|
|
|
|
completely ignored by labormanager.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The fitness algorithm for assigning jobs to dwarfs generally attempts to
|
|
|
|
|
favor dwarfs who are more skilled over those who are less skilled. It
|
|
|
|
|
also tries to avoid assigning female dwarfs with children to jobs that
|
|
|
|
|
are "outside", favors assigning "outside" jobs to dwarfs who are
|
|
|
|
|
carrying a tool that could be used as a weapon, and tries to minimize
|
|
|
|
|
how often dwarfs have to reequip.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Labormanager automatically determines medical needs and reserves health
|
|
|
|
|
care providers as needed. Note that this may cause idling if you have
|
|
|
|
|
injured dwarfs but no or inadequate hospital facilities.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hunting is never assigned without a butchery, and fishing is never
|
|
|
|
|
assigned without a fishery, and neither of these labors is assigned
|
|
|
|
|
unless specifically enabled.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The method by which labormanager determines what labor is needed for a
|
|
|
|
|
particular job is complicated and, in places, incomplete. In some
|
|
|
|
|
situations, labormanager will detect that it cannot determine what labor
|
|
|
|
|
is required. It will, by default, pause and print an error message on
|
|
|
|
|
the dfhack console, followed by the message "LABORMANAGER: Game paused
|
|
|
|
|
so you can investigate the above message.". If this happens, please open
|
|
|
|
|
an issue on github, reporting the lines that immediately preceded this
|
|
|
|
|
message. You can tell labormanager to ignore this error and carry on by
|
|
|
|
|
typing "autolabor pause-on-error no", but be warned that some job may go
|
|
|
|
|
undone in this situation.
