180 giant mosquitoes
« on: February 17, 2012, 01:11:50 pm »
I'm playing my first 34.01 fortress and until recently everything's been going fine. A few days ago, though, 187 giant mosquitos entered the map and are taking the average FPS down from 100 to 50. Is this bug-like behaviour or business as usual?

Bug-like behavior...heh.

Anyways, yes, this is a known issue, it will be fixed in the next release.  It's caused from giant mosquitoes having the same swarm amounts as their tiny cousins.

I've hit 152 as the highest number of giant mosquitoes on my map.

I'm afraid to do anything when they show up, because I keep thinking they'll massacre me.

they will... the likely-hood that you have a named "Unique" Mosquito(wo)man becomes quite high with this many.  Prepare to learn about hospitals... this issue finally made me learn military/hospital.
