I feel these two are the most important since combat can determine whether a fort dies:

bug #4552 - Siegers waiting by bodies of dead leaders  {Most Important}

bug #2712 - weapons, especially whips, cut through steel armor like butterbug   {2nd Most Important}



Is this where we vote or does another location exist?

[quintilius]

well, 535 could get you killed while your idiots run back and forth looking for armor - but so long as you're careful not to put miners or woodcutters into the military you can get them kitted out and they wont usually change much...
1582 is very annoying - though i've seen people post 'cage and release in hospital' solutions (innovative, but absurd) - it's cost me dwarves in the past (esp when the injured party is a diagnostician)
296 is bad, but only really hurts if we're talking 'beware his deadly blood' scenarios - and you can use dfhack to clean things if you're really annoyed
i thought 4230 was fixed - i havent had to declare soap making through the manager in a long time
for me though, 3708 is the killer. There's no workaround and it's a potential fort destroyer. I've lost a half dozen otherwise perfectly fine forts to rampaging dead caravan guard ghosts - now when i see a dead guard i just abandon.  Until toady fixes this one the game is just a frustration timebomb waiting to happen.  The only really truly challenging and fun fort i've had was one where my dwarven civ died - so there were no migrants, no caravans, and no slabs required.  It lasted 19 years.

If we're adding bugs...

New towns produce extremely limited quantities of wood, stone, and metal, resulting in almost all shops being clothing shops, and essentially no armor or weapons or even furniture shops, and those that do exist having no equipment.

Old shops and houses are never reclaimed - any worldgen with enough history has almost the entire city consist of "Abandoned Shop"s even though the population is in the thousands - populations live on the roof of the castle, instead.

Clothing not worn by characters is always made for SIZE 70,000 creatures, meaning that no goods in shops are sized for anything but humans, even when they are dwarves or goblins or any sort of modded creature, and even if you mod human-sized creatures entirely out of the game.

There's also one about popluation pool characters respawning - so if you clear out a dungeon, the bandit leader you killed will stay dead, but all the minions respawn each time you fast travel or sleep.  Likewise, if you murder an entire town, the peasants just respawn if you step away from town for a little while. 


Here we go, mantis is back up...
#5106 is the bug with cloning worldgen population pool characters.  It also results in infinite cloned recruitable companions if they are not historical, incidentally. 

I'd also like to put up an oldie of mine - the pain problems.  4590 - Elephant killed by three hoary marmots when elephant gives in to pain from nibbling, and then slowly bleeds to death over roughly 3 game years.

This is my pick for new bug of the year:
http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=5595

In a terrifying biome, a were-creature comes and starts a cycle of infecting undead with lycanthropy, and when they are killed and torn to pieces, the pieces resurrect and heal completely.  This creates clones of the were-zombies which eventually also get smashed in combat, creating more clones.

I am stopping adding new bugs, as now we have 4 more bugs than on previous list. Thanks for submissions!

Agreed... there's a difference between adding your biggest pain point bug and just spamming this thread with four or five random bugs.
