Dwarf Fortress 0.31.12 Released

Aside from the major bug fixes listed below, I made skill increases a little faster during training.  Part of the problem is with how classes work -- the teacher and student skills are important, and they can heavily amplify the effects, so the gains for people without those skills were small.  Now it'll be even more extreme that the base rate has increased, so we'll have to see how that plays out in forts that get good teachers.

If your old fort has a dead liaison, your replacement liaison will be named after one of the standard professions most likely, but they should still perform their job.  New worlds should have dead liaisons kicked out completely and get new liaisons.

Crash fixes
   (*)fixed military training crash
   (*)fixed a crash during dwarf creation in arena mode after dwarf mode game had been played
   (*)fullscreen/windowed mode switch crash fixed (Baughn)

Major bug fixes
   (*)fixed new liaison coming when previous liaison is unavailable for any reason
   (*)fixed problem which stopped the liaison from talking about making a barony

Other bug fixes/tweaks
   (*)adjusted skill rates up a bit on indiv training and demonstrations
   (*)made att/skill rate loader treat 0s like NONE instead of the fastest rate

Ahaha, so true. Thanks Toady, now I can let my military train without having to save every 5 minutes out of paranoia.

I accidentally abandoned my main fort last night, heh.

Looks like I get to make a new one with an actual military this time.

We'll see.  It could be time for the odd-even-odd parity switch which is bound to happen sometime.

ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD!

I suggest we name the next release 0.31.14 so even-numbered crash fixes won't be needed this time. ;)

What do you mean by that?

Thanks! :D

Just wait you guys, if Toady skips a number and makes an even-number normal release... then we suddenly need two hotfix patches :P

Whee!  Since my dwarf civ's liaison arrived dead last autumn (I have no idea why -- I saw a dwarf carrying his body to the graveyard, and there were no combat messages at all), this update is promising.
