DFHack - Dwarf Fortress Modding Engine

DFHack is an add-on for that enables mods and tools to significantly extend the game. The default DFHack distribution contains a wide variety of these tools, including bugfixes, interface improvements, automation agents, design blueprints, modding building blocks, and more. Third-party tools (e.g. mods downloaded from Steam Workshop or the forums) can also seamlessly integrate with the DFHack framework and extend the game far beyond what can be done by just modding the raws.

DFHack’s mission is to provide tools and interfaces for players and modders to:

• expand the bounds of what is possible in Dwarf Fortress
  
• reduce the impact of game bugs
  
• give the player more agency and control over the game
  
• provide alternatives to toilsome or frustrating aspects of gameplay
  
• make the game more fun
