Embark Neighbors Extended

Description
Embark Neighbors Extended adds a display during embark site selection of nearest sites for ALL races and sorts them by travel time, excluding the player's race. This is particularly useful for players who have added additional civilizations through mods.

REQUIRES DFHACK. Run it from DFHack Launcher during embark site selection screen.

embark_neighbors_extended


Caveats:
1) Does not display player's race.
2) Does not display sites greater than 3 days' travel time away.
3) Directions may be slightly off when sites are further away due to how directions were calculated. By slightly, I mean displaying SE/SW instead of south for example.
4) It's possible that some added civilizations might mess this mod up depending on what and how they have been modded. I've tested the popular ones and have had no problems so far.
5) This is my first mod. This was also made to satisfy my own wants. There may be problems, and you may have complaints. I'll consider complaints and try to fix problems.


Updates:
- Window position no longer overlaps "Find embark location" window

clay, if you have it installed inside dwarf fortress then
steamapps/common/dwarf fortress/data/installed_mods/embark_neighbors_extended\scripts_modactive

if not, then
steamapps/workshop/content/975370/3334773931/scripts_modactive

975370 is Dwarf Fortress's steamID and
333477391 is the mod's ID

Easiest way to get there (IMO), right-click on Dwarf Fortress in your steam library and select the option (might be under Manage) to go to local files. This will take you to:

steamapps/common/dwarf fortress

Alyfox, where is the LUA file to copy?
Alyfox 16 Aug @ 9:43am 
OK!

If you copy the lua file into /dwarf fortress/dfhack-config/scripts

then it will work as intended! success!

Thirded. I came by to see if I was maybe doing something wrong. The command doesnt show up at all. if I knew anything about lua Id peek inside to see whats up

Seconded, the command seems to no longer be recognised.

Exactly what I needed for my new world. Default just feels limited

This only displays additional information which already exists in the game data. It does not modify anything and does not affect who will mess with your civilization.

does this increase how many of them will mess with you?
