This tool was inspired by, and will become a part of the
Lazy Newb pack. It's purpose is to create an easy to change settings screen for DF to change various options in init files, a few hacks/mods, and swap tilesets.

Use:
Unzip and place the files and folders in the folder with the Dwarf Fortress .exe
Features:
- Easy tileset swapping! (including ability to easily add other tilesets)
- Change Invaders/CaveIns/Economy/Temperature/Weather easily
- Alter Population/Child caps
- Turn on/off visible liquid depths.
- Turn on/off Aquifers in newly generated worlds. (See Note2)
- Remove [PET_EXOTIC] and [MOUNT_EXOTIC] tags, so that a Dungeon Master isn't required for training many animals.
- Option to use default or Laptop keybinds.
- Moving the DFConfig.exe and DFConfig.txt files to a new DF version and running DFConfig.exe will automatically set your saved settings.
Notice::
- This doesn't read your settings. On first load it'll set your settings to the default (all on), all changes you make will be saved. (Planned to be fixed)
- If you've applied the LazyNewbPack (V2.0) no aquifers patch, use their process to remove it or this tool won't work for editing aquifers
- The settings which are not universal (mods, tilesets) won't apply to savegames. New worldgens are required for them to take effect. (Planned to be fixed)
- Changing tilesets will blank your settings (for now), so apply tileset first, or apply tileset then cycle through the settings. This will be fixed in a release soon. (Planned to be fixed)
Planned Features:
- Read your settings on first run
- Add additional easy-change options
