Firstly, it moves the last used material for a given construction type to the top of
the list, if there are any left. So if you build a wall with chalk blocks, the next
time you place a wall the chalk blocks will be at the top of the list, regardless of
distance (it only does this in "grouped" mode, as individual item lists could be huge).
This should mean you can place most constructions without having to search for your
preferred material type.
.. image:: images/automaterial-mat.png
Pressing 'a' while highlighting any material will enable that material for "auto select"
for this construction type. You can enable multiple materials as autoselect. Now the next
time you place this type of construction, the plugin will automatically choose materials
for you from the kinds you enabled. If there is enough to satisfy the whole placement,
you won't be prompted with the material screen - the construction will be placed and you
will be back in the construction menu as if you did it manually.
When choosing the construction placement, you will see a couple of options:
.. image:: images/automaterial-pos.png
Use 'a' here to temporarily disable the material autoselection, e.g. if you need
to go to the material selection screen so you can toggle some materials on or off.
The other option (auto type selection, off by default) can be toggled on with 't'. If you
toggle this option on, instead of returning you to the main construction menu after selecting
materials, it returns you back to this screen. If you use this along with several autoselect
enabled materials, you should be able to place complex constructions more conveniently.

gui/assign-rack
===============
Bind to a key (the example config uses P), and activate when viewing a weapon
rack in the 'q' mode.
.. image:: images/assign-rack.png
This script is part of a group of related fixes to make the armory storage
work again. The existing issues are:
* Weapon racks have to each be assigned to a specific squad, like with
beds/boxes/armor stands and individual squad members, but nothing in
the game does this. This issue is what this script addresses.
* Even if assigned by the script, **the game will unassign the racks again without a binary patch**.
This patch is called ``weaponrack-unassign``, and can be applied via
the binpatch program, or the matching script. See this for more info
about the bug:
http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=1445
* Haulers still take equpment stored in the armory away to the stockpiles,
unless the ``fix-armory`` plugin above is used.
The script interface simply lets you designate one of the squads that
are assigned to the barracks/armory containing the selected stand as
the intended user. In order to aid in the choice, it shows the number
of currently assigned racks for every valid squad.
gui/choose-weapons
==================
Bind to a key (the example config uses Ctrl-W), and activate in the Equip->View/Customize
page of the military screen.
Depending on the cursor location, it rewrites all 'individual choice weapon' entries
in the selected squad or position to use a specific weapon type matching the assigned
unit's top skill. If the cursor is in the rightmost list over a weapon entry, it rewrites
only that entry, and does it even if it is not 'individual choice'.
Rationale: individual choice seems to be unreliable when there is a weapon shortage,
and may lead to inappropriate weapons being selected.
gui/clone-uniform

Bind to a key (the example config uses Ctrl-C), and activate in the Uniforms
page of the military screen with the cursor in the leftmost list.

the list, if there are any left. So if you build a wall with chalk blocks, the next case. Must be in look or talk mode to issue command on tile.
time you place a wall the chalk blocks will be at the top of the list, regardless of
distance (it only does this in "grouped" mode, as individual item lists could be huge).
This should mean you can place most constructions without having to search for your
preferred material type.

will be back in the construction menu as if you did it manually. * wait - temporarily remove from party
* follow - rejoin the party after "wait"
* leave - remove from party (can be rejoined by talking)
When choosing the construction placement, you will see a couple of options: gui/gm-editor

Bind to a key (the example config uses Alt-A), and activate with a job selected in

.. image:: images/workshop-job.png
The script shows a list of the input reagents of the selected job, and allows changing
them like the ``job item-type`` and ``job item-material`` commands.
Specifically, pressing the 'i' key pops up a dialog that lets you select an item
type from a list.
.. image:: images/workshop-job-item.png
Pressing 'm', unless the item type does not allow a material,
lets you choose a material.
.. image:: images/workshop-job-material.png
Since there are a lot more materials than item types, this dialog is more complex
and uses a hierarchy of sub-menus. List choices that open a sub-menu are marked
with an arrow on the left.
.. warning::
Due to the way input reagent matching works in DF, you must select an item type
if you select a material, or the material will be matched incorrectly in some cases.
If you press 'm' without choosing an item type, the script will auto-choose it
if there is only one valid choice, or pop up an error message box instead of the
material selection dialog.
Note that both materials and item types presented in the dialogs are filtered
by the job input flags, and even the selected item type for material selection,
or material for item type selection. Many jobs would let you select only one
input item type.
For example, if you choose a *plant* input item type for your prepare meal job,
it will only let you select cookable materials.
If you choose a *barrel* item instead (meaning things stored in barrels, like
drink or milk), it will let you select any material, since in this case the
material is matched against the barrel itself. Then, if you select, say, iron,
and then try to change the input item type, now it won't let you select *plant*;
you have to unset the material first.

This script is part of a group of related fixes to make the armory storage
work again. The existing issues are:
* Weapon racks have to each be assigned to a specific squad, like with
beds/boxes/armor stands and individual squad members, but nothing in
the game does this. This issue is what this script addresses.
* Even if assigned by the script, **the game will unassign the racks again without a binary patch**.
This patch is called ``weaponrack-unassign``, and can be applied via
the binpatch program, or the matching script. See this for more info
about the bug:
http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=1445
* Haulers still take equpment stored in the armory away to the stockpiles,
unless the ``fix-armory`` plugin above is used.
The script interface simply lets you designate one of the squads that
are assigned to the barracks/armory containing the selected stand as
the intended user. In order to aid in the choice, it shows the number
of currently assigned racks for every valid squad.
gui/advfort
===========
This script allows to perform jobs in adventure mode. For more complete help
press '?' while script is running. It's most confortable to use this as a
keybinding. (e.g. keybinding set Ctrl-T gui/advfort). Possible arguments:
* -a or --nodfassign - uses different method to assign items.
* -i or --inventory - checks inventory for possible items to use in the job.
* -c or --cheat - relaxes item requirements for buildings (e.g. walls from bones).
implies -a
* job - selects that job (e.g. Dig or FellTree)
An example of player digging in adventure mode:

advfort changes only persist in non procedural sites. Namely: player forts, caves, camps.
gui/companion-order
===================
A script to issue orders for companions. Select companions with lower case chars, issue orders with upper
case. Must be in look or talk mode to issue command on tile.
.. image:: images/companion-order.png .. image:: images/workshop-job.png
* move - orders selected companions to move to location. If companions are following they will move no more than 3 tiles from you. The script shows a list of the input reagents of the selected job, and allows changing
* equip - try to equip items on the ground. them like the ``job item-type`` and ``job item-material`` commands.
* pick-up - try to take items into hand (also wield)
* unequip - remove and drop equipment
* unwield - drop held items
* wait - temporarily remove from party
* follow - rejoin the party after "wait"
* leave - remove from party (can be rejoined by talking)
gui/gm-editor Specifically, pressing the 'i' key pops up a dialog that lets you select an item
============= type from a list.
There are three ways to open this editor: .. image:: images/workshop-job-item.png
* using gui/gm-editor command/keybinding - opens editor on what is selected Pressing 'm', unless the item type does not allow a material,
or viewed (e.g. unit/item description screen) lets you choose a material.
* using gui/gm-editor <lua command> - executes lua command and opens editor on .. image:: images/workshop-job-material.png
its results (e.g. gui/gm-editor "df.global.world.items.all" shows all items)
* using gui/gm-editor dialog - shows an in game dialog to input lua command. Works
the same as version above.
.. image:: images/gm-editor.png
This editor allows to change and modify almost anything in df. Press '?' for an Since there are a lot more materials than item types, this dialog is more complex
in-game help. and uses a hierarchy of sub-menus. List choices that open a sub-menu are marked
with an arrow on the left.
gui/mod-manager .. warning::
===============
A way to simply install and remove small mods. It looks for specially formatted mods in Due to the way input reagent matching works in DF, you must select an item type
df subfolder 'mods'. Mods are not included, for example mods see: `github mini mod repository <https://github.com/warmist/df-mini-mods>`_ if you select a material, or the material will be matched incorrectly in some cases.
If you press 'm' without choosing an item type, the script will auto-choose it
if there is only one valid choice, or pop up an error message box instead of the
material selection dialog.
.. image:: images/mod-manager.png Note that both materials and item types presented in the dialogs are filtered
by the job input flags, and even the selected item type for material selection,
or material for item type selection. Many jobs would let you select only one
input item type.
For example, if you choose a *plant* input item type for your prepare meal job,
it will only let you select cookable materials.
If you choose a *barrel* item instead (meaning things stored in barrels, like
drink or milk), it will let you select any material, since in this case the
material is matched against the barrel itself. Then, if you select, say, iron,
and then try to change the input item type, now it won't let you select *plant*;
you have to unset the material first.
