CaptainLambcake,

There is no reason to bump this as this forum is no longer in use.  Bug reports are handled on Mantis, and this particular one is #1371.  While the report started out in adventure mode, it eventually encompassed fort mode as well.  You can read through the entries to see if you have anything extra to add, but other than that, we simply have to wait for a fix.

Well bumping is still useful as the workaround, the utosave, is essential for keeping the nemesis error from killing our fort - and worse, your world.

It is my belief that the broken historical figure files which are the root cause of this error not only harm the fort, but the entire generated world - which stands to reason, as the entire world draws from teh same base pool of historical figures.

this can be especially frustrating for players who, like myself, like to continue to play in a certain generated world fortress after fortress, for continuity. I will forever mourn my line of dwarven monarchs that I managed to track and preserve across four generations and six fortresses..

Thanks for this topic. Wish I had not deleted all my old backups yesterday... 26 years of playing in this world and Nemesis errors are getting way too bad. I actually managed to ignore and get around the crashing with my backups for a while (The Nemesis unit was an immigrant) but its just gotten too bad. I had a lot of plans to continue playing in this world with other forts :(. I wonder if younger or older worlds are better for avoiding this problem.

Had this issue today for the first time, made me rage, turning on Seasonal backups now then going to check to see if that save still works.
