    Is the steam game still a fight against the frame rate or can I let a hundred cats breed in my fortress without restarting?

          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.

              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.

            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.
