So this is a two part question.
The first being, if I were to stop world generation at year 1 and then play fortress mode from there will history progress normally as I play (for instance civilization being wiped out or expanding, mega-beasts become worshiped, and all that jazz) or will everything be frozen how it is when it starts besides for the things that directly affect my fortress?
The second is, will this be changing in the upcoming release (I know there's a crap ton that's being changed, but didn't see anything pertaining to this)?
(Third question just because I felt the above were too easy. Does anyone know if there are plans to be able to 'retire' a fortress instead of abandonment. Meaning all the dwarves stay there and it continues to be run but it is run by the computer just like any other mountain home or town or what have you.)
