Dwarf Fortress 0.44.04 Released
« on: January 10, 2018, 09:28:51 pm »

This is another bug fix release to start the new year.  A few of the bad five-second freeze/lag problems caused by the new release have been fixed, and large beasts should move off the edge of the map again.  Over in adventure mode, inappropriate creatures shouldn't yell 'identify yourself' and companions should participate in conflicts as they used to, and some other issues of reputation should be solved, especially among citizens of the starting town.

Major bug fixes
   (*) Stopped displayed artifacts from duplicating on retirement/offloading of site
   (*) Made attacking giant monsters path to targets properly again
   (*) Stopped extraneous dwarf mode conversation text generation (freezes)
   (*) Stopped negative artifact location rumors from passing around so much (freezes)
   (*) Made removing first stop of hauling route w/ assigned vehicle not cause issues/crashes
   (*) Stopped crash caused by yielding to muggers
   (*) Stopped creatures from asking for identity when they shouldn't be able to speak
   (*) Fixed problem with companions and other close people not always recognizing your relationship to them

Other bug fixes/tweaks
   (*) Made returning mercenaries stop petitioning for sanctuary (existing petitions will still be there)
   (*) Prevented unirrigated etc. top-left corners etc. from stopping planting in farms
   (*) Stopped inaccessible pile tiles from stopping bin/barrel placement throughout pile
   (*) Allowed stairs to be carved in ice that is one tile above stone properly
   (*) Added building item TSK indicator to ground items as well
   (*) Stopped designations for removal of ramps/constructions from working on hidden tiles
   (*) Removed incorrect back instruction from burrow naming
   (*) Properly saved freeing hf in relevant historical event (Quietust)
   (*) Fixed a few cases of historical event for identities reporting wrong historical figure
   (*) Fixed kitchen job hotkeys

Huh, honestly thought that was me doing weird stuff. I should probably check standard behavior before writing problems off as caused by me.

Thanks! The stutter fix works like a charm, my fort went from stuttery 40-50fps to smooth 110fps!

Oh ho, looks like people are responding to tales of feats better now!

Tavern Keeper knew I was a legendary hero from killing a roc, told him about a bandit just now after updating and he included the right fame type:

It's actually pretty terrifying to think about having all of your fat melt off into grease because you started sweating too much.

Great start of the new year.

ad "Stopped inaccessible pile tiles from stopping bin/barrel placement throughout pile":
This stopping of stopping confused me a bit so for other ones struggling, see 795, "If part of a stockpile is inaccessible, barrels/bins don't get placed in succeeding tiles".

You fixed my 8 year old stockpile bug!

Will have a go at the new release tomorrow, looks awesome

In a fat-fingered moment while setting up another military squad I accidentally created a captain of the guard rather than a militia captain.  His squad of near-legendary hammerdwarves equipped with high quality silver hammers then took it upon themselves to dispense justice to all the mandate breakers in the fortress.  It was quite messy.
