World generation will now feature sites which instantly died due to spawning in water while it was already frozen.

Does anybody know how to become an elephant man in adventure mode? I literally did all advanced world settings possible to increase chances.

Very, very randomly. This will result in elven sites being established in hell, dwarven fortresses in the sky, and human cities buried in rock under a mountain. As well as other, totally logical and sensible site placements.

The everything should be randomized, maybe one world has air replaced with magma or pure dwarves, maybe alcohol is replaced with cats or liver, no matter what it will never be the same game twice!

If you put a actually playable check in, this sounds awesome. I think Terraria had a mod similar to that.

I mean as I understand it, the mythgen weirdness sliders will be kind of like that. Toady's described some pretty bizarre worlds as hypotheticals on the extreme end of the scale (like a world-sized creature with "dwarves" as insectoid parasites mining around in its insides).

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

Insectoid? why does it always have to be insectoid parasites? why can't it ever be 53-dimensional abstract mathematical construct parasites?

Because even if Toady does implement that, we won't be able to understand it

Also because we tell stories based on what we know...and the vast majority of parasitic organisms in our world are invertebrates.

Since dwarves already come with a parasite in the forum of their beard, it'd make more since for the world sized creature should be the dwarf and we should play as the beard hairs controlling it from the inside.

When a megabeast attacks a settlement, it should make a bee-line for the farms and dig them up to wear as protection.

Some megabeasts are highly allergic to bees and if they are stung by one at a fort they may very well suffocate. This should happen during world generation too.

dwarves beards already come with a parasite in the forum of their beard dwarf

FTFY

Rename DF "Beard Fortress". The dwarven parasite's fascination with socks is the most common cause of beard fort collapse.

Anytime bloated forgotten beast is attacked it has a high chance to explode and kill all creatures nearby.
