Well, I generated the world again, from the same seeds/parameters/raws. Since I couldn't remember exactly what year I actually let the history go to, I ran it about another century and a half

You should probably report this on bugtracker with said seeds/parameters/raws, as 400 mil of humans in single tower is definitely a bug.

[huhwhozat]

Not necessarily.  As evidenced by quantum garbage dumping, pocket dimensions are obviously a feature.

@Aachen: Please do attempt that tower in Adv. mode.  We must have screenies.

Imagine a Siege from THAT army.

Germany experienced it in WWII.

[dreadmullet]

I think the humans found that 2212 Z-level adamantine spire and decided to colonize it.

[Keldane]

You said tower, right? As in a necromancer's tower? Of course it's a necromancer's tower; there are animated creatures there.

Oh well, you'll never take the bloody place. Even if you can get there without your computer bursting into flames the moment it comes into sight I suspect one of two things will happen:

1) You'll discover that every one of those humans is a necromancer.

or

2) The undead will realize they're hanging out with the living and go berserk.

Either way, any adventurer heading there seems likely to live a very, very short life, in my opinion.

Well, my update is sadly brief and (as mostly expected) disappointing.

The game crashes. Attempting to approach the tower either directly or through fast travel sends the game into a non-responsive state. Within fifteen seconds the game window closes. I suppose it's not terribly shocking, either.

Necromancers must have used all those bodies to create a black hole or somesuch.

The atmosphere of the surrounding countryside, though .... every settlement I could reach within two or so days seems to be ruined and desolate. Deserted markets are definitely a little creepy. No teeming undead hordes to be found, though.

[Reudh]

That would just be one great huge congealed mass of humanity.

And for your computer to compute that tower if it were to try would be like Atlas and the world.

[Flying Dice]

Germany experienced it in WWII.

Not quite. Maybe if the entire population of the SSSR had attacked a small, rural town.

[helf]

Can we have a save?

[Urk]

If you go to war agains them and consume one second to kill one, it would take more than 14 years to kill them all 

(if i did math correctly)

[Untelligent]

Why would you waste 14 years killing one necromancer per second when you could just flood the tower with magma?

[Loud Whispers]

Save. 5 billion humans...

[Oliolli]

Why would you waste 14 years killing one necromancer per second when you could just flood the tower with magma?

Or drop the tower in it's entirety into the magma sea.

But... can you EMBARK there?

The desolate towns make sense; they've all been claimed by the tower.
