<SPOLIERS> Circus open to the surface?!
« on: October 12, 2010, 10:44:30 am »

Title says it all really.

Gen'd a world with 31.16, embarked on temperate forest/mountainside. Game crashed as soon as it loaded.
Fortunately I have autosave on for embark, so I loaded the game and looked around while paused and to the north of my dorfs is a massive chasm, reminiscent of the beginning of the chasms of 40d, which spans all the way to the bottom of Hell. I try unpausing and game crashes again.

Totally unmodded, vanilla 31.16.

Anyone want the save or screenshots?


EDIT: Ok, so above this chasm to Hell is floating muddy floors?! Wtf?

it's been happening a lot, think it started in .13 or .14 and has snowballed.

Something about corrupt data or somesuch screws with the world and you end up with and you end up with a 2000 zlevel SMR/slade mountain with adamantine sticking out the top and demons flying out

Theres no tall mountain though, just massive gaping holes in the floor leading into Hell.
And now there's ice in Hell.  :o

That's what cages and minecart shotguns are for!  We don't need to control them.  We just need to aim them.

Now that would be a fun little feature, if it could be moderated. You know, little incidents of freakish geology like adamantine spires or upside down mountains or a !!floating hell fortress!!.
