I can't seem to get a world to finish genning, gets stuck on synching folders??? Anyone know whats up? Or could host one of their maps and PM me a link to DL it?

[MarcAFK]

I was going to suggest that default worldgen time should be limited to 250 since things are rather allot slower now, but just before i posted i checked my worldgen and found it has stopped at 250.... lol
Thumbs up toady, you're awesome, also i'm very much looking forward to fighting off hordes of mosquitos/zombies.

Oh god.

Zombies have no limit on how many times they can be raised. Is there a way to stop these horrifying creatures?

Magma, rinse and repeat. With more magma, and perhaps water.

Even a tiny world with the shortest history sits at Syncing Folders for hours+

Can you just dump their corpses in a huge pit, or magma?

I'm in bed right now playing the new DF release, rather than with a hot Valentine's Day date.
Yes, I am completely fine with this situation.

It seems like zombies in Fort Mode are working slightly different than Adventure Mode--or maybe it's just the ones raised by mummies.  In Adventure Mode, after I kill a mummy-raised zombie a time or two, every time it tries to raise after that it immediately dies again with a "has bled to death" message.  Which is strange, but effectively keeps them from mobbing me infinitely.

Thanks for another great release, Toady!

Well, I got the largest-scale world to gen itself up.  (At the end, was taking about ten minutes for every four or five years...  On the not-brilliant 2GB RAM Vista laptop I mentioned earlier.  Haven't yet tried it on my more traditional XP machine.)

Interesting thing.  Vertically designated a long vertical stairwell to be dug and it Revealed some eerie glowing pit stuff at the base.  (None of the usual announcements, though.)  I'm tempted to let the mining dwarves break out of their "Priority Mining" burrow and have a go at that, but I've no doubt I'll encounter at least a couple of caverns and the magma sea before I get to that level, anyway...

Anyway, packing that up for now.  There's other things need doing.

(Also, made a copy of the worldgen dir so that I could also run around it in Adventure Mode, and really must make some time to do that as well.)

Any plans for Nursery zone? 'Cause it seems that catsplosion been replaced with babysplosion - I've seen 14 births in a month on a beginning of the third year with 70+ adults.

Most likely, without dwarf therapist, you've just got too many idle dwarves, hence more romance. Or you're getting more married couples migrating.

I am not seeing babysplosion, I'm seeing dogsplosion and the first caravan hasn't even arrived yet...

My main experimental fort is currently suffering from diggor mortis, though, after ... I really don't know. My miner dwarf went missing, wasn't seen for a week, and when I looked around I found him at the bottom of a waterfall, dead. How he got there: *no* idea. The area is totally inaccessible ... unless someone threw him down there... <paranoia>

Realized there was a new version out yesterday evening.. Played a little then, and some more this morning.. After embarking a 15 different locations, I figured out that there might be something wrong with custom world generation, checked the bug tracker on this and probably someone else had that problem, too: http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/mantisbt/view.php?id=4425

So now I created I world without maximal minerals and custom settings, seems to be working fine. Let's see if the clothes lying around bug is fixed in this version.

Check for bitemarks.

I'm having werespiral. After second attack INSIDE the fort I'm isolating everyone who got injured in those fights.
