I've done about 50 or so embarks now on 'Terrifying' and 'Haunted' areas, looking for a particular type of surrounding. Particularly, I want a 'dead' area - dead trees, dead shrubs/grass, mostly or only skeletal creatures.

In .31, I have a map where it's pretty easy to find such. Most 'Terrifying' areas are desolate, with dead trees and dead shrubs and only undead creatures surrounding me.

Now, in .34, I've generated 3 maps, including one where I tripled all the evil generation settings. Following this I've tried about 50 or so embarks - and have yet to find a *single* 'dead' zone. Even in areas that are Terrifying/Haunted I can't anything but lush green forests or beautiful tundras, etc.

Has anyone else experienced the same? Or tried to specifically find dead zones? Any tips on finding them?

Well, I'm not sure if dead creatures exist by themselves anymore, but whether evil biome has evil plants or not is sort of random.

I'm pretty sure evil non-grass flora are bugged. As for undead, I've noticed that some evil biomes are purple/magenta on the map, while others are gray/red. The gray/red areas have always had undead in my experience.

I landed in both grey and red areas too on my most recent map. Again, lush forests or meadows with living creatures.

Nah, eyeball and worm grass isn't bugged, it just doesn't always appear. The evil trees and berries are though.
