Fiery collapses?
« on: October 05, 2016, 09:24:52 pm »

This latest map seems to have a lot of forest fires ... but when they start, I get annoyingly spammed, over a considerable length of time, with "Something has collapsed on the surface!", and the view resets to what I believe is fiery branches.

Is that a normal thing?

Yes, that's vanilla behavior from multi-tile trees. It's why I always turn off pause/recenters for cave-ins in the init files.

Yes its normal. My current fortress has had its forest burned down twice already, first time when i was attaced by a dragon, second when i was attacked by a blob of fire.  I've also had past fortresses whose forests burned down. Every-time I've had a fire a few trees have collapsed and paused the game. I've modded the game a bit but i've never fiddled with trees.
