Dwarf Fortress from Bay 12 Games and Kitfox Games has a fresh update available on Steam today, and this brings with it their official Native Linux support.
I can’t relate because my forts never got to that point even with a really big number of cats. I know that with DFHack you can set up an auto butcher thingy that controls the population though!
Omg, auto-butcher plus so many other niceties… everyone should be using DFHack. It’s installable through Steam as well so everything automagically works.
That sounds incredible! The game used to be so barebones and unoptimized that it was essentially a balancing act between efficiency in the game and efficiency in processing it.
You don’t need to restart a fortress, you can just kill the cats
At .05 fps, it’s faster to restart entirely.
In current versions of the game you have to try to get low frame rates like that.

I still don’t know how a lot of the tools in DFHack aren’t just baseline in the game at this point they are that good.
