I love how as the series goes on, the regular chaos of Dwarf Fortress is still happening in the background and your fort is actively falling apart as the videos go on
Thanks, this video was very helpful and informative. Half of my citizens were ripped to shreds by a forgotten beast and the other half were seriously injured. Thanks to this video, everyone was able to die peacefully in a hospital together, not from their wounds, but from dehydration. Cheers!
I was pre-emptive! I knew that most of my sick dwarves died from thirst so I made sure to run a river through my fortress for a constant supply of drinking water. They all drowned! Dehydration defeated!
I didn't think I would need this so soon as we JUST embarked, but uh, a tree fell on my woodcutter, so I am suddenly in need of a makeshift hospital lol Thanks a lot for these videos, very helpful.
Usually Miasma (foul odour) builds up in the hospital due to rotting flesh etc. I always make sure to ventilate my hospital, by digging a chimney / tunnel out to open air, and slapping a wall/floor grate over it. Not sure if it really helps tho, but it "feels" effective :D
Anything in a tile that has been directly exposed to the sky won't generate miasma, even when later covered over - or at least that's how it worked pre-Steam release. If you don't feel like digging that much space out, you can also put the hospital beds in separate nooks/rooms with doors. Doors stop miasma.
Hey mate, first of all i wanted to thank you for your very helpful short tutorials. I´ve gotten into DF just 2 days ago and I seem to have a problem with my hospital or my dwarfs in general. I have multiple incapacitated dwarfs in need of crutches, but they´re all just left at the spots where they were wounded. I´ve got all the medical personal assigned, a chief medical dwarf and every table and tool in a chest. So far my main cook has gone stark raving mad by sitting onefooted infront of the kitchen for a whole year.
Thanks for the guide! One of the issues with the game I found was that in the description I see "you need an X item, which you must first to craft in a workshop", but the game doesn't tell you in which one the item is crafted. So, when I tried to order a traction bench, I searched for it in carpenter's and in stoneworker's. Didn't know I had to build a mechanics workshop, now I know at last. )
Buckets of water are also important for washing syndrome-causing residue from the dwarves' bodies. If that syndrome-causing residue is not washed off, then the pertinent syndrome will just keep coming back. This is all-too-common after encounters with Titans, Forgotten Beasts, and Demons.
They still wont help conscious dwarves who are so injured that can't move anymore. Minotaur brutalized one of my dwarf, who basically took the blow for the others, but they dropped them on the door of the hospital. It looked so sad I tried to expel them, and then they suddenly were able to walk.
When i didnt knew how to built them i would just make the sick dwarves go in far away rooms and locked them up until the rest would forget about them. Oh how the fuck didnt i knew this. Legendary Tutorial.
spiderfarming is easy when you can see or trade for a caged spider. since they come tamed, you release them in a zoned pasture/room and they make em over time
I got an issue where the dorfs don't transport hospital material (thread, cloth...) Into the hospital despite having a chest and having stocks of those items. On another note they also are leaving artifacts and other goods in their respective workshop despite having stockpiles
Hey thanks for the explanation! A question: I had a hurt dwarf that couldnt move, and nobody came to save him or bring him to the hospital. I thought I had crutches, but not in the hospital. So ... how do I get my healthy dwarfes to carry injured dwarfes?
It's a task they need to do but it's considered low priority I believe. So if there's a lot of other stuff that needs doing they might have to wait a little while. You can assign some people to only carry wounded (perhaps that's something "orderlies" will do, I haven't looked into that, otherwise just do a custom work detail).
My wood cutter dwarf just got injured by my horse just because he did wood cut in the zone of pet. So my horse just kicked my dwarf out. Damn it. Now I only have 6 dwarves to start the game. I thought it is safe in a warm forest and no worry about food and drink, but obviously, I was wrong. Just keep you dwarves in your fortress as could as posible. Now my wood cutter would not like to go to bed now just like a self-closed in his mind. then the doctor in the hospital cancelled the diag due to the patient is not in the rest... what should I do ?? I provided beds/ bench/ chests already.
Because it's a meeting hall, it's a common problem; I see two solution : You don't do like the tutorial and instead of a meeting zone you use "Bedroom" or "dormitory" zone and then assigned them as a hospital or make pastures and select the animals to it. Hope it helps.
Is medical labor handled different from other tasks? Even when suturing is restricted to only my chief medical dwarf, I find other random dwarfs doing it.
Request/suggestion for quick tutorial topic: Butcher shop and associated stockpiles. I can't figure the butcher shop out for the life of me. Thanks for these videos!
My miners don't know how to get rid of a roof without causing a major cave in killing one of them and injuring the other as well as a stoneworker, a blacksmith, and a child. So now I can treat them with this nifty tutorial!
Thanks for the video! I've tried to play on this new version and I can't get some things right, maybe someone there can help: 1. Can I assign mutiple dwarfs to a burrow or do I have to do it one at a time? Also, I liked the old alert system a lot, and can't find it right now. Is it in the game? 2. Can I change the picture for a labor group or does it stay "as is"?
My fav dwarf is starving to death in the hospital. I've done everything from switching all surgeons, moving the hospital, creating a ton of buckets, placing water inside the hospital and putting food a foot away from the dwarf in need. Nothing has worked. The dwarf's jaw is "torn apart" is that what's causing him to be unable to eat? :( Zulban doesn't deserve to die, he just had a child, and became a legendary miner D:. Any idea whats going on ?
I thought I had every thing set up properly but my dwarfs have layed two children on top of the chest and have not helped or touched them them for months. :/
this game is so weird, like why are barracks a seperate category in the zone menu but hospital is an option under meeting area?! like I've done it before but I had to look up how to make a hospital because this game can be so damn un-intuitive XD
Underground tombs seem to work. If you want you can even assign a tomb zone and that entire section will be dedicated to a single dwarf, if you wanted to fill it with family heirlooms or statues or something.

dwarf: dying
Doctor Fish: "Quick! Submerge him in water!"
That'll show em!
Thank you! This short and to-the-point video really helped me figure this out, great video!
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I had made my hospital an Office, and nothing was working. I guess I still need to figure out how offices vs meeting areas work.
No needles? Those poor dwarves! Lol
Dwarves are a simple folk. No need for needles when you have teeth and rocks.
daggers and knifes make holes to thread the rope through
Hey man that was a nice short and informative video, keep it up!
Great video! My dwarfs were hopeless until you arrived
When i didnt knew how to built them i would just make the sick dwarves go in far away rooms and locked them up until the rest would forget about them. Oh how the fuck didnt i knew this. Legendary Tutorial.
My dwarf decided to let a tree fall on him. I am now here, looking up how to fix him. Poor memedrift :(
I had a miner who mined the rock he was standing on... I should just drown him.
the catchphrase for these videos should be , oh look, there's fighting going on in the basement
I believe that plasters and splits serve the same function? Or maybe plaster is somewhat better? Maybe that was an older version.
Plaster is /slightly/ better.
when i make a traction bench order he brings over the table (shale) but then the order disapears, i have pig tail rope i think thats ok?
I feel like you glossed over the spider web thing and I don't think that should just be ignored.
spiderfarming is easy when you can see or trade for a caged spider. since they come tamed, you release them in a zoned pasture/room and they make em over time
Or make it from plant fibres form a few plants that give them
@@any1alive And we're just going to talk about this without screaming in horror and running away? IT'S A SPIDER FOR GOD'S SAKE

I got an issue where the dorfs don't transport hospital material (thread, cloth...) Into the hospital despite having a chest and having stocks of those items. On another note they also are leaving artifacts and other goods in their respective workshop despite having stockpiles
I think that it's a chief medical dwarfs' job to haul items to the hospital, if you assign one, but I'm not entirely sure.
You just need more dorfs.
Your dudes are just busy.
Hey thanks for the explanation!
A question: I had a hurt dwarf that couldnt move, and nobody came to save him or bring him to the hospital. I thought I had crutches, but not in the hospital. So ... how do I get my healthy dwarfes to carry injured dwarfes?
Yeeeeah, same problem. Kinda defeats the purpose of making a hospital.

You can assign some people to only carry wounded (perhaps that's something "orderlies" will do, I haven't looked into that, otherwise just do a custom work detail).
I have a problem where one of my dwarfs won’t go to the hospital and none of the doctors will help him. Even when they’re idle

I have a strange bug with hospital, when I created zone - many of my animals went there and stay there. Dunno why
Because it's a meeting hall, it's a common problem; I see two solution :
You don't do like the tutorial and instead of a meeting zone you use "Bedroom" or "dormitory" zone and then assigned them as a hospital

This might require also small part that shows about work detail for it, or are they doing diagnosing automatically without custom work details?
Its all automatic when you have the rolls assigned.
@@BlindiRL ok good to know!
Thank you!

I imagine him not having a functioning jaw is what's causing him to starve, yes.
Very concise and useful. *support comment*
Do we have an equivalent to the Health screen that was in old DF? The doesn't seem to be one in the game at the moment.
Its there, its in the dwarfs mind, under health.
@@BlindiRL Yes, but there is no centralized place to see the health of all your dwarves (and animals) at a glance, like in the 40d as far as I know.
Thanks my doefs got mauled by crows
Blind's first fort was brutalized by giant chinchillas and giant thrips
I got agitated ravens, so almost the same.
i need to know how to make casts and soap
hey Blind. You have to manually assign Doctors to the hospital zones now!
Thank you blind
Very usefull, thanks.
Cant find the constructed table in the carpenter or the stoneworkr
Because it is in another workshop, mechanical naming like that. Most of time, I also need to goto DF wiki to search these kind of questions.
I thought I had every thing set up properly but my dwarfs have layed two children on top of the chest and have not helped or touched them them for months. :/
Blind video, can thimbs up before even watching, thanks for the time.
I would need help with jobs like in old df i knew but now I see only basic ones
How do you zoom in so close???
You've probably worked it out already, but for anyone who finds this question: hold control and use the mousewheel to zoom in or out.
congrats fish cleaner LMAO
You always smooth stone, but why don't you ever engrave it?
Damn bro how's that Basement war going?

Could you please do a quick tutorial on burials? Have no idea how to deal with my poor dead dwarfs
Just make some stone coffins, place them and make a burial zone. They will automatically retrieve remains and use an empty coffin.
Underground tombs seem to work. If you want you can even assign a tomb zone and that entire section will be dedicated to a single dwarf, if you wanted to fill it with family heirlooms or statues or something.
I made the mistake of putting lots of coffins in one tomb zone. Only one of them got used. Each coffin needs its own zone.
@@Arganoid You could make the burial zones one square big and place them on each coffin.

"Short"
8 minutes. Welcome to DF.
Ignorant question, why are buckets of critical importance?
Hurt dwarfs can't drink booze or leave hospital to get drinks so the other dwarfs must bring water to them in buckets.
