I do not know exactly how to successfully add a changelog.txt so I'm going to add it here in the description of what I believe needs to bee added in this changelog.txt. exterminate: now accepts a "-c" argument which targets only children. Case sensitive. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
I would prefer that if you're going to add "children-only" you should also add "adult-only" just for parallelism
also, this won't kill babies. is this intended? should it kill babies? if not, should it offer a "baby-only" option?

Please update exterminate to add a -c flag that targets only child units. I plan to build a timer-based script to run this so poults don’t wander off and put dwarven children at risk.
Argument parsing: adds -c alongside existing flags.
-c purpose: target children only.
Example:
exterminate -f -c bird_turkey -m knockout
