DF Crashes when human caravan comes, save inc.
« on: November 13, 2007, 06:51:00 am »

Here's a save about 15 seconds before the caravan comes, it crashes almost instantly. The gamelog shows the caravan arriving at the same time it crashes. This fortress is modified to use humans and I have used reveal, however I have several dwarf fortresses in the same situation if it's required. This seems to only happen a couple years in, the caravan has arrived fine each year before this. I have noted this on the other fortresses too. Seems like 3 or 4 years in when it starts to happen.

I have a save that seems to be crashing with the arrival of a human caravan, as well (game log shows arrival of caravan and merchant baroness).  No mods on mine.  I will get it out later tonight when I'm home from work.

I'm getting the same crash, too. Four crashes in a row immediately when the merchants and a baroness arrive. Only modifications to my game are turning Temperature, Weather, and Invasions off.
Here's my save file:

Edit: In case it helps, here's the errorlog:

I'm going to hold off looking at these until after the next release, since all of my caravan crashes have been caused by a seed pricing error, which I've fixed.  If any of these still act up with the one that's going up at the end of the week, let me know.

Awesome.  This has been my best fort so far with this version and want to keep expanding it.

Thanks again!

I've got one too, it consistently crashes some 2-3 minutes after loading. I did make several modifications, such as adding hatchets, broadswords, and similar items though, but there are no traders to cause the crash. The dwarven caravan has recently left, and I'm not doing anything outrageous at all. I'll see if preventing certain tasks' execution will stop it crashing...

I also have a crash related to an arriving human caravan in 1053.  I have a save about 40 seconds before if needed.

Interestingly, I managed to get the human caravan to successfully arrive... by raising my wide drawbridges.  With only the 1-wide sally port available, I get the "Wagons have bypassed your settlement" message, and the caravan arrives OK.

So it's the wagons, the goods ON the wagons, or the folks accompanying the wagons.

Same problem, crashes every time.  Save is about 5 seconds before the caravan arrives.  I'll try it in the new version and post the results here, once it's available; I already had it uploaded before reading this thread, so I figured I'd post the link anyway.

I should note that this is the third time the caravan has arrived.  The first time it came by itself, the second time they actually met with my leader to discuss what they'll bring next time like the dwarves do, and this third time supposedly they were bringing a merchant prince, according to the gamelog.

Will our current saves be compatible?

A dwarf's unfailing capacity to believe what he prefers to be true rather than what the evidence shows to be likely and possible has always astounded me. We long for a caring Fortress which will save us from our childish mistakes, and in the face of mountains of evidence to the contrary we will pin all our hopes on the slimmest of doubts. Gold has not been proven not to exist, therefore it must exist.

Aye, the new version fixed the crash.

Thanks much, Toady One!
