Diary of Dumat Adilsezuk, Expedition Leader

12th of Slate

I'm alright. We've punched all the way through the aquifer and although the bottom floor of our fortress has water up to waist height we are making good progress.

Meet the fortress's cats.

15th of Granite

We embark.

Situated at the intersection of a desert and two rainforests, the embark site is diverse and rich in resources. Sibrek and Nomal begin digging lodgings.

20th of Granite

We have hit an aquifer.

Mining slows and Moldath and Meng chop wood to secure the walls.

"Surround yourself with friends you trust and you will be unstoppable."

We break through the aquifer. Fortunately, it is only 3 layers deep. Though the work itself is boring knowing I am making a new home with my friends makes it worth it. We've come far. A full-8-days trek around the Ocean of Swords from the Fortress of Brightmetals.

Personally, I don't but I understand people who do use it. From what I can tell the gap with labour assignments that occured with the pre-50 versions has been narrowed by the UI improvement of v50.xx, which was the main thing people used therapist for.

(I'm assuming this is about Splintermind's fork of Dwarf Therapist. The original Dwarf Therapist was last updated in 2012)

Got sidetracked there. So advantages to Dwarf Therapist:

Skill use: the spreadsheet format allows to see which dwarves are mos qualified for which jobs. It does this by turning them into numbers making it quick and easy to do. Plus you can centrally con trol labor assignments without having to flip between tabs

Mood regulation: You also get a spreasheet for which needs are goihng unmet. If you want your fortress to be super happy then this is useful for finding where you can get the greatest gains.

Gaydar: It gives you a quick dwarven gaydar
