Some additional helpful Dwarf Fortress Console Commands and Cheats:

• control-shift-z :This command is to open enhanced stock screen.
• exterminate: This kills whatever is below your cursor.
• tweak cage-butcher : This command is to butcher critters from inside cages without having to let them out.
• remove-stress -all : This command is to reset stress levels.
• ban-cooking tallow : This command is to forbid any cooking of any tallow.
• cleanowned scattered X : This command will remove everything on the floor, including everything with X wear and everything on the dwarf bodies. It will also keep a steady FPS when in mature fort. All of that crap bloats up your bedroom cupboards, registers as “owned,” and is generally a hassle. Assure that the only permanent dump location is underneath a bridge. Don’t stress about selling it; it is hard to designate it for trade and isn’t worth much. Atom crush everything.
• source : This command to be used when you need magma/ source of water.
• dwarfvet enable Animal hospital : a simple hospital zone for training and doctoring animals in Dwarf Fortress.

Conclusion

These were some of the commands and cheats for the Dwarf Forest game. It might not work in the future (when the new update is pushed) because these are just backdoors due to current bugs and issues, but they may work for the time being. Anyway, it is advised to play the game without any cheats or commands. This will boost the experience of the gameplay and the player’s spirit.
