spectate¶
Usage¶
enable spectate
spectate
spectate set <setting> <value>
spectate enable|disable <feature>
When enabled, the plugin will lock the camera to following the dwarves scurrying around your fort. Every once in a while, it will automatically switch to following a different dwarf, preferring dwarves on z-levels with the highest job activity.
If you have the auto-disengage
feature disabled, you can switch to a new
dwarf immediately by hitting one of the map movement keys (wasd
by
default). To stop following dwarves, bring up gui/launcher and run
disable spectate
.
Changes to settings will be saved with your fort, but if spectate is enabled
when you save the fort, it will disenable itself when you load so you can get
your bearings before re-enabling follow mode with enable spectate
again.
