Ack.  Naturally, I've run world gen many times out quite a few years (~150-170) over the last several days without issue.  I suppose we can start collecting downloads and seeds.  Can you get a little pocket through?

Default parameters, SDL windows small, 64 bit, 180 years, crashes on selecting the option to play the world as is.

Pocket world worked.

Every time I see the 8th’s starting line, “Down to two now!”, I see it as “Download now!”  Cannot unsee.

Why do underground plants have seasonal limitations, and aboveground plants don't?

It is a valid question.  Patrik's answer gave some history in that the underground plants were there first.  I believe the last FotF thread had Toady's answer, specifically:

Quote from: Mephansteras

    On a related question about plants: Are there plans to go through and give the various aboveground plants more realistic seasons and growth durations, as well as reasonable harvest seasons for things like fruit?

    Right now they're all pretty much set for any season with short growth durations that allow you to get a crop every season (or more), while the underground plants all have seasons, which doesn't make much sense.

Yeah, I'd like to have the seasons be correct, where seasons even exist, and the biomes are also too non-specific in most cases.  Right now it's a combination of research/data-entry time combined with not having farming finalized and so worrying about wasting mine (or anybody's) time entering info.  I haven't gotten close enough to tackling farming think about how the plant issue is going to be handled.

PTW.

Did a river thaw?  Did you close a gate or lock a door?  Is a ramp or stair blocked?

Verify they have a path in.

I'll assist in rectifying that...

Use restricted traffic designations over the entire moat.  Then regular/high traffic designations over the area you want them to cross.

The iron bars and willow bed are both [ B ] uilt as components of the "bed" construction.
