I really like how you got all these mods updated and working together. This sounds like a lot of work. Good job!

That said, while I am interested in using this...

That's a deal-breaker for me. But I'll keep an eye out for when this gets fixed.

Also, if you would, please update it! This script is exactly what I need.

Please consider mentioning somewhere in the description that the Forum Thread for this is: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=163602.0

Some of us browse DFFD for new mods and utilities, rather than finding a mod or utility on the forums and following the download link here. And if a mod on DFFD fails to mention a forum thread or list the URL, then we're going to assume that a forum thread does not exist. I'd consider the forum thread URL more important, even, than the URL to GitHub script repository.

This sounds interesting to me. I'll have to give it a try. But... And I realize what "Multiple" means and that this serves to point out that this is supposed to work with multiple versions of DF... It sure would be nice if it was mentioned somewhere which version of DF this was last updated to or tested with. I could not find a mention of this on the forum topic, either.

Since the last update (as of writing) was on May 8, 2018, it seems safe to assume this was updated for 0.44.xx. Technically, the mod update date places it between the releases of 0.44.10 and 0.44.11.

You really should have provided a link to your forum topic, especially since you don't even have a description of what this mod contains. And your 32-bit and 64-bit versions say, "make sure to check the thread" and "Check the thread for more info." But that's really difficult to do when you don't share the link. Some of use do not discover new mods from the forum. Some of us regularly check DFFD for new and interesting mods, discovering them here and attempt to follow the forum link provided...

Thanks for this! It should come in handy.

BTW: Using 7zip, I was able to compress this all the way down to 277 KB. That's between 6 and 7% of the 4.21 MB with WinRAR. Though, to be fair, that 4.21 is still a better result than using .ZIP (which comes out nearly 5 MB).

This looks like a really cool mod and concept! I hope you continue development.

Suggestion: Please include a link to your forum thread, either in the Description or in the "Home Page" field. Some of us browse DFFD looking for interesting new mods and, as such, we would have no idea where to find the mod's forum thread.

An FYI for those who might be confused:

Despite the "_BLACK" in the File Listing title, this download has _BLACK, _BROWN, _GREEN, and _VARIABLEMODE versions.

I wish the Description was more... descriptive. It's hard to tell what this actually does without a list of changes or something.

There is a link to the Forum Thread. However, the description text was made the link, so it's very easy to overlook. (Tip: The "Homepage" area is the place to put a link to the mod's home / forum thread.)

Your description says nothing about what this mod does or what it's for. I'm sure I'm not the only person to browse DFFD, searching for mods, to come across this and scratch their heads.

Why not mention the fact that this is just a bugfix for the Hive mod? And why not provide a link to your post in the Hive thread that explains your bugfix? comment last edited by Thundercraft on Dec 27, 2014, 12:32:59 pm
