Invaded goblin civilization, now random crashes!
« on: April 10, 2017, 01:23:25 am »
OK. I took my bluejay girl in full steel plate to go beat down a goblin civ. Unfortunately, theres something going on inside the civ thats causing it to crash randomly if I don't get out of the civ before the event occurs.

I don't even know how to report or diagnose or report the problem to the tracker but I love my character and I don't want this to be the end of her. @.o

Any help would be appreciated.

Dark Fortresses are a notorious source of lag. There are so many creatures moving about in even one of these that the game cannot easily process them.

It could also be this thing. Just beware of the spoilers, if you have never explored a Dark Fortress before, DO NOT CLICK THAT LINK.

It's not so laggy, but it's crashing often?

Then I don't know. You using DFhack or any other utility?

If it crashes in the same place without fail every time, and you're definitely playing vanilla 43.05, 64 bit (not noob-pack DF, but actual vanilla) then definitely upload it to the bug tracker. Crash bugs are high priority.

There's a 'nemesis crash bug' in adventurer that seems to designate a certain part of the world for no apparent reason as a crash zone which this sounds similar to.

A save would be helpful as well.

Yeah, sorry, that's what I meant by 'upload'. Don't just report it. There's enough 'My game is broken' with no evidence reports on the tracker as it is.
