we know, but after a certain amount of years it just doesnt react to esc anymore. (due to lag)

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

Yep, thatīs why I put a thread into the suggestion forum,
to force an 1-2 second wait on keyboard commands once every 5 years:
http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=101454.0

This would (probably) enable us to get our ESC through even in later years of Worldgen
and would prolong the time that world generation takes even in 1050 year old world by just a few minutes
(which is a laughable amount of time, considering the fact that the generation of such a large world would take several days with the current version ;) )
