Engraving problems.

I've had this happen once or twice, this time on a clean install of d12. That mess in the middle is my dining room after engraving.

Engraved floors are ugly.  Is that ugly in some unusual way?  There's a "hide engravings" designation that might help.

That'll teach you not to spam images on your floor.

If you have a temperate map with water features, you can train your engraving skill by ordering a mass-smoothing of the ice surface in the winter.

You can toggle the engravings to show images or just a decorated surface you know? Just do d > v to toggle them. You can also set it as a default in the init/
