Humans don't show up
« on: October 09, 2006, 11:43:00 pm »

For whatever reason, coming into my third winter I've never seen hide nor hair of any human, or even heard of a human civilization.  I have a three-squares-wide rough stone road with the natural rocks detailed, stretching all the way to the end of the map (and automatically beyond, which the game confirms), and yet no beardless flabby beer-sipping (as opposed to beer-quaffing) human has shown his too-high head.  Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

It depends...  if it hasn't posted a message or anything, it might be your position on the world map.  Did you export your world map and know where you are on it?  If you can't get to humans from your site, they can't get to you, but this would be very rare, so I'm not sure that's it.  If you backup your save folder, you could abandon and then export the map from the legends screen to check.
