DFHack tools
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
DFHack has **a lot** of tools. This page attempts to make it clearer what they
|
|
are, how they work, and how to find the ones you want.

What tools are and how they work
|
|
--------------------------------
|
|
|
|
DFHack is a Dwarf Fortress memory access and modification framework, so DFHack
|
|
tools normally access Dwarf Fortress internals and make some specific changes.
|
|
|
|
Some tools just make a targeted change when you run them, like `unforbid`, which
|
|
scans through all your items and removes the ``forbidden`` flag from each of
|
|
them.
|
|
|
|
Some tools need to be enabled, and then they run in the background and make
|
|
changes to the game on your behalf, like `autobutcher`, which monitors your
|
|
livestock population and automatically marks excess animals for butchering.
|
|
|
|
And some tools just exist to give you information that is otherwise hard to
|
|
come by, like `gui/petitions`, which shows you the active petitions for
|
|
guildhalls and temples that you have agreed to.
|
|
|
|
Finding the tool you need
|
|
-------------------------
|
|
|
|
DFHack tools are tagged with categories to make them easier to find. These
|
|
categories are listed in the next few sections. Note that a tool can belong to
|
|
more than one category. If you already know what you're looking for, try the
|
|
`search` or Ctrl-F on this page. If you'd like to see the full list of tools in
|
|
one flat list, please refer to the `alphabetized index <genindex>`.
