Random Cave-Ins
« on: May 11, 2010, 07:06:27 pm »
Everytime I load my game, I get a message "A section of the cavern has collapsed!" It then zooms several layers below anywhere I have mined out. What is causing this? Is this a bug?

Underground lake falling into a magma pool?

Or by "load" do you mean embark? Because I get those too sometimes. I dunno what causes them.

usually water flowing into magma
it produces a block of obsidian that caves in if it isn't attached to anything.  you could fix this by turning cave ins off in the .init

I hadn't thought of magma... By load i mean when I open up my saved game. However it appears to happen at other random times during gameplay so it is probably magma. I will have to send my miners to investigate...
