So I'm pretty sure dfhack is giving me some sort of stability issues. After a while of playing, DF would just randomly crash and bring up the window error recovery stuff. Nothing funny in the game log, and it seems to have gone away after swapping the SDL to deactivate dfhack.

Can you elaborate on that a bit? Which parts of DFhack are you actively using? Also, can you post the crash information?

I'm using a lot of workflow and digcircle.  It doesn't seem to be crashing when I use a command, it's just crashing randomly, usually right after I hit a key in the game.  The only reason I suspect dfhack is because I haven't had any problems without it.

As for crash information, do you mean the error log that windows spits out after you let it churn for a while?  I don't have one, but I can see if I can convince it to crash again.

Edit:  So the new version has some crash fixes in it, but I'm still reasonably confident that it's not that, since nothing were-creature related happened right before the crashes.

After an unfortunate bout of flooding, I feel it should be made clear in the readme that nopause not only disables pausing, but disable the job cancellations, too.

It doesn't disable job cancellations. Just tested it with digging tunnels under murky pools... So, you have some other problem there. For example, if those damp tiles are already revealed, you won't get any cancellations.

Huh.  Ok.  Sorry to blame, then.  All I know is that I was mining out the face of an aquifer and turned on nopause and suddenly everything was flooding.

So I'm trying to start using workflow, and I'm trying to maintain a stock of mechanisms.  I can't seem to figure out what the actual name that workflow expects.  I delved into the raws for the first time and couldn't even figure out where all of the furniture is.  Could anybody help with that?

Also, thanks a billion for the new version.
