Holdings lists what rooms the dwarf currently owns, if there is something listed but in red then it is something the dwarf needs but does not currently own. Make sure you have your manager selected and press enter to view their bio page and see what is amiss. REQUIRE is highlighted in red to signify that your noble requires something that they don’t currently have. Pressing enter takes you back to the nobles screen and you will notice a warning to the right of your newly appointed manager Eral is also a fisherdwarf which isn’t critical to my fortress at the moment so I am happy to use him as my manager. Is a simple choice for me, I will select Eral as my manager, don’t panic if none of your dwarves have no organizer skills, just pick a dwarf with little else important to do and they will pick it up over time or you can replace them with a more experienced dwarf if one arrives in a future migration wave. In my case the first dwarf is a novice organizer, if I move down again I find that Ast has no relevant skills. The first option is to leave the position vacant if you decide against assigning it, the dwarves below this are ordered in terms of how many relevant skills they have so if you move down with any luck you have a dwarf with some sort of organisational skill.

This lists all the potential noble positions available within your fortress, I will explain each of these nobles as we encounter them, for now use the arrow keys to move down to the vacant manager position and press enter to take you to a list of your dwarves. Make sure you pause the game to set this up, means you don’t have to worry about keeping an eye on things in the meantime. Nobles – ManagerĪt this point in dwarf fortress I like to setup a manager, this noble will become an important part of your game by effectively working as your assistant to help you dish out queue commands that you submit to them.

Scroll through each of the seasons and make sure that you have one of them highlighted for each season or your dwarves simply won’t plant anything and you will have to go without! Press ESC to accept the changes and as soon as you are un-paused and a dwarf with a farming skill is free they will set to work. Hopefully you have at least strawberries and prickle berries available, using the usual scroll keys (Shift + + and the – key) move down to either and press enter to select. At the top of the building frame you will see a list of different things you can plant here, using the a, b, c and d keys you can switch between the different seasons.

Press q and move the cross over the farm (assuming it has now been successfully built). Remember that farm plot you placed a little while ago? Its not doing anything, lets get it setup. Time to go back and start working on our fairly pathetic fortress some more. Hopefully you also understand the skill system after the previous post.
DWARF FORTRESS DORMITORY HOW TO
By now you should have a resonable grasp on how to place buildings in dwarf fortress, even if you don’t really understand what they all do, how to designate areas and also how to create stockpiles.
