The Giant Moles in the caverns of my current fort breed like crazy, even while regularly being decimated by other beasts entering them...

Hold your dwarven head low and proud aussie!

Testing out the checkers game now, first try they ran of through the pump stack. walled off and the two last game pieces are placing them self on the game board now :)

Any unnamed dwarfs doing slave work armoks will to make hell a cozy place?

First off; welcome to the thread.

Second; welcome to the Masonic Order of Cavern-Sealers.

Now, no sign of any migrants, sadly.  I'm gonna upload the current save,  If anyone could have a poke around and see if they can find a cause with DFHack or any other tool, I'd appreciate it.

Nope, Temperate.  Nothing freezes in Winter at Swordthunders.  My current plan is to finish flooring over Hell and building enough Hellvillas for everyone.  Then I'm going to split the save so I can flood the whole goddamn place with magma

I actually suggested that some time ago.

You all turned Swordthunders into a bastion of madness that seems to warp in on itself under its own hatred of sanity.  I'm so happy!

I just realized that something is terribly wrong here. Swordthunders is mostly women. They have conquered Hell. Shouldn't male migrants be bumrushing the place?

It's all fun and games until someone gets hurt. Then it's Fun and Dwarf Fortress.

My trade depot is set to flood with water at the pull of a lever.  It's deep in the tunnels with easy drainage.  I call it my "water for goods" trading policy.

I don't think I'd be bumrushing any woman that took part in the conquest of hell.
Now, Rumrushing may not end too badly, as long as the rum you bring is good compared to what they have.

I have no idea where anything is. I have no idea what anything does. This is not merely a madhouse designed by a madman, but a madhouse designed by many madmen, each with an intense hatred for the previous madman's unique flavour of madness.

So what's the verdict with the savegame?  Anyone managed to have a poke at it and see if anything's bugged?

I've been a bit too busy today to play any DF. I'll check on it as soon as I have time.

I haven't looked yet, but since ive got it downloaded I don't have much excuse not to. I'll check it out now.

Well, I dunno what could possibly be keeping migrants away other then possibly the OVER TWO THOUSAND CORPSES LITTERING THE HALLS AND THE SURFACE, plus the 2300 body parts. Or possibly the multitude of ghosts floating around.

Maybe it's all the cats. Or the rabbits. Or cavies... You know what breeds like rabbits? Cats, cavies and rabbits. No wonder my brand new CPU gets 13-17 FPS on this save!

And what's with the enormous 7 z-level cistern? I want to pull all the levers until I find out which one operates those floodgates :P
Wait... Think I found it. "The Final Resort?" No, that says it operates the two on the right... Oh god I just flooded the entire fortress and trapped Doren in that control room. I suppose it was obvious she'd be the one to kill them all, but she could have let Shem in! He was right outside the door! Well, he did make it to that little room at the very top of the staircase alive.
Wait... Now how will I find out what all those other levers do!?
Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Wow that's a nice waterfall... of stray animals falling and exploding!




I don't really see anything specific that could be preventing migrants. You can try exporting as much crap as the caravans can haul though. And clean up the clutter. Perhaps the game doesn't like having to deal with so much clutter...
There really aren't any direct diagnostic tools for these situations, sadly. DFhack, DFusion... They're really just meant to change the game, not give you information. And DFusion is mostly malfunctional anyway.

Someone found the Suicide Lever... What caused the stray animals to fall and explode though?
