Evil Canyon of Doom World Seed
« on: December 04, 2015, 08:35:37 am »

Anyway, on current WTF, DF's worldgen just created what may be a fun little challenging site to embark on:

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

It basically gave me this mostly evil canyon/vale thing with sheer, tall (+20 z levels) cliff walls and populated only by goblins. The climate is either cold or freezing, with no access to elves or humans, or any nearby dwarf fort, and very few trees overall. I haven't played DF in quite a while, but I never saw something quite like this before. Hopefuly there's decent metals around :v

I posted this on the lower forums, and then someone asked for the world seed, so here's the whole thing, for anyone who's interested:

I'm curious as to how a tank would evolve. Would it climb out of the primordial ooze wiggling it's track-nubs, feeding on smaller jeeps before crawling onto the shore having evolved proper treds?
My ship exploded midflight, but all the shrapnel totally landed on Alpha Centauri before anyone else did.  Bow before me world leaders!

I wanna try this, but I also don't want to play before the bugfix comes out. Decisions, decisions!

Is this biome reanimating? I really don't want to know what happens when "absurd numbers of megabeasts" is combined with "reanimating biomes".

I have tested this a bit, and it seems this world tends to cause crashes on post worldgen progression (the calendar bit). The first iteration crashed after I abandoned my first fort and tried to make another, and sometimes it'll crash after the first world generation on the calendar bit. If this happens to you, try to generate another world using the same seed untill it stops crashing.

I'm not sure if this is a bug related to this version or the worldgen itself.
