Command: once-per-save

Run commands only if they haven’t been run before in this world.

If you are looking for a way to run commands once when you start a new fortress, you probably want on-new-fortress.

This tool is better for commands that you want to run once per world.

You can specify multiple commands to run, separated with ;, similar to multicmd. However, if the command has been run (successfully) before with once-per-save in the context of the current savegame, the commands will not actually run.

Usage

once-per-save [--rerun] <command>[; <command> ...]

Run the specified commands if they haven’t been run before. If --rerun is specified, run the commands regardless of whether they have been run before.

once-per-save --reset

Forget which commands have been run before.
