Learning the joys of DFHack. Surprised I haven't crashed the game yet

Caravans of both mice and hares showed up at the same time. They're all so cute! I love this mod.

So I left off my mouse fortress in the middle of what I'm calling The Great Harvest. The fruits have fallen from all the trees, winter is coming, so I designated the entire surface as a harvest zone. My little mice are working so hard to harvest everything that they've taken to just dropping their harvest on the floor before running back out to harvest more, which I found annoying. until I saw that one of our children is playing in the pantry and stopping to move things into barrels every time that happens. So this really is an event for the whole village. I love it. I need to have them build a tavern so they can properly celebrate the harvest.

To use Dwarf Therapist or nay?

Personally, I don't but I understand people who do use it. From what I can tell the gap with labour assignments that occured with the pre-50 versions has been narrowed by the UI improvement of v50.xx, which was the main thing people used therapist for.

(I'm assuming this is about Splintermind's fork of Dwarf Therapist. The original Dwarf Therapist was last updated in 2012)

Got sidetracked there. So advantages to Dwarf Therapist:

Skill use: the spreadsheet format allows to see which dwarves are mos qualified for which jobs. It does this by turning them into numbers making it quick and easy to do. Plus you can centrally con trol labor assignments without having to flip between tabs

Mood regulation: You also get a spreasheet for which needs are goihng unmet. If you want your fortress to be super happy then this is useful for finding where you can get the greatest gains.

Gaydar: It gives you a quick dwarven gaydar

There's a few other things as well. I've never usied it myself. To be fair I'm an on-off user of DFhack so maybe not the best person to go for advice on utilities.

Book 2:- Chapter 1 Meet Eletha Uthasanera the Saltwater crocodile man

We're back in Ramul Zurko and it's time to play the character you all voted on. Meet Eletha Uthasanera

We spawn in on the Elven isles of the East

Oh, nearly forgot my furry friends!

Now let's go talk to the elves.

There they are in the trees.

I have a useless conversation

In the mean time I'll wait under this tree.

note to self: do not bring mandrake ale as your only alcohol when embarking on a new fortress

(mandrakes, their poison and the ale apparently derived thereof are from the excellent mcnuggies mythical beasts, made by tumblr user chickenmcnuggies)
