I have recently found what to me seems a near perfect site.
 There are 4 biomes, a ground level volcano, mountains to flatten, sand, flux, iron and everything else. Oh and a Kobold camp just a ways off.

 The only problem:  RAIN.     It never stops raining. And I mean never.   I wouldn't mind but for the FPS. So after 3 years of perpetual rainfall I decided to abandon and Reclaim in the hope of starting a new fortress there and turning off weather before the rain struck.   I did lure the kobolds in to try and finish off the Dwarves, but kobolds couldn't even manage that

 Anyway, I get a crash on Reclaim which is reproducable with other regions/maps and sites while using 31.10.  So my Reclaim idea is out of the window. Does anyone know of a way to force the rain to stop? I am not adversed to cheating or hacking to get this to work right

 Thanks.

That's the infinite rain glitch.
And I want it.

At the moment it certainly does look like a glitch.
 Its nothing special, the land won't flood as I don't think rain alone can do that so its just an annoyance. If there was flooding, then it could be quite fun FUN FUN! 

 Anyone know if a Giant glass roof, (or any roof) will stop the FPS drop from the rain?

 If you like I can host a copy of the world gen or the save. I can't just post the world gen here as it is over 40000 characters long hehe.  Or perhaps I could post it in 2 parts....

I love infinite rain! Also infinite snow.

Weather is interesting!

I had infinite snow on a Glacier level with a volcano. I thought it was cool too until i found out that it could melt  
 Chaos was soon to follow.  Dwarves boiling alive left right and center.  Obsidian all inside my carefully constructed magma moat.  Cats and dogs living together.

*distant sigh* Sounds like just home...

Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!

I heard that rant in his voice after that line.

Hehe, thats what I was going for

 Another year and its still raining... shit, I suppose I'll just have to live with it.

 By the way, has anyone else had problems Reclaiming a site or is it just me?  Thats 31.10.

nope, same here, unable to reclaim any site, and are you sure it's a bug and not just say, a really high rainfall count? i mean, defualt worlds have minimum rain at 0 and max at 100, once assumes now and again there would be a place with 100 rain.

Well I do know that I am in a high rainfall area since I created this map with PerfectWorld, but it hasn't let up once.  I'm hoping that it is just a high rainfall area and that eventually it may stop raining for a while, long enough to turn weather off
