Additions/Removals

Other Changes

DFHack 0.43.05-alpha4

Fixes

  • Fixed an issue with uninitialized bitfields that was causing several issues (disappearing buildings in buildingplan‘s planning mode, strange behavior in the extended stocks screen, and likely other problems). This issue was introduced in 0.43.05-alpha3.
  • stockflow: Fixed an “integer expected” error

Structures

  • Located several globals on 64-bit Linux: flows, timed_events, ui_advmode, ui_building_assign_type, ui_building_assign_is_marked, ui_building_assign_units, ui_building_assign_items, and ui_look_list. This fixes search, zone, and force, among others.
  • ui_sidebar_menus: Fixed some x64 alignment issues

Additions/Removals

  • Added fix/tile-occupancy: Clears bad occupancy flags on the selected tile. Useful for fixing blocked tiles introduced by the above buildingplan issue.
  • Added a Lua tile-material module

Other Changes

  • labormanager: Add support for shell crafts
  • manipulator: Custom professions are now sorted alphabetically more reliably

DFHack 0.43.05-alpha3

Fixes

  • add-thought: fixed support for emotion names

  • autofarm: Made surface farms detect local biome

  • devel/export-dt-ini: fixed squad_schedule_entry size

  • labormanager:

    • Now accounts for unit attributes
    • Made instrument-building jobs work (constructed instruments)
    • Fixed deconstructing constructed instruments
    • Fixed jobs in bowyer’s shops
    • Fixed trap component jobs
    • Fixed multi-material construction jobs
    • Fixed deconstruction of buildings containing items
    • Fixed interference caused by “store item in vehicle” jobs

  • manipulator: Fixed crash when selecting a profession from an empty list

  • ruby:

    • Fixed crash on Win64 due to truncated global addresses
    • Fixed compilation on Win64
    • Use correct raw string length with encodings

Structures

  • Changed many comment XML attributes with version numbers to use new since attribute instead

  • activity_event_conflictst.sides: named many fields

  • building_def.build_key: fixed size on 64-bit Linux and OS X

  • historical_kills:

    • unk_30 -> killed_underground_region
    • unk_40 -> killed_region

  • historical_kills.killed_undead: removed skeletal flag

  • ui_advmode: aligned enough so that it doesn’t crash (64-bit OS X/Linux)

  • ui_advmode.show_menu: changed from bool to enum

  • unit_personality.emotions.flags: now a bitfield

API Changes

  • Added DFHack::Job::removeJob() function
  • C++: Removed bitfield constructors that take an initial value. These kept bitfields from being used in unions. Set bitfield.whole directly instead.
  • Lua: bitfield.whole now returns an integer, not a decimal

Additions/Removals

Other changes

  • Changed minimum GCC version to 4.8 on OS X and Linux (earlier versions wouldn’t have worked on Linux anyway)
  • Updated TinyXML from 2.5.3 to 2.6.2
