I have a z-level display that will change depending on my x-y position, when I haven't changed the z-level itself.  It seems to depend on structures that are being displayed (0 for outside, -1 for having hidden mountain tiles, -3,-8, etc for caverns).

Also, I'm not sure if this is a bug or not, but a giant bat entered my fortress, however none of my soldiers would fight it unless it started the fight with that individual soldier, leaving me to fight it one soldier at a time.  At one point I had the leader of a squad stationed 3 tiles from the bat, who was attacking either a soldier or civilian, but the leader did not join the fight, and instead watched and became miserable as their friend died.  I haven't fought giant bats before so it might just be how you need to fight giant flying creatures, but it seemed buggy to me.

I genned the world from 39a.

You need to got into the squad menu and tell the squad to attack hostile animals.

The -1, -2 basically shows you how many z levels you are above or below ground level. Not a bug. ;]

Yup, and if you go into the sky it'll display positives!

Yeah, the number at the bottom is the absolute z level (I think that 0 is the absolute lowest bottom of the ocean floor, but maybe it is sea level?). The one at the top is relative to ground level.

99 or 100 are sea level. Not sure which.
