Major bug fixes
   (*) Fixed item storage crash related to minecart being destroyed

   (*) Cleared old activities properly so they aren't considered by dwarves for too long

Other bug fixes/tweaks
   (*) Decreased frequency of conversation-skill-building dwarf chats
   (*) Reworked grazing formula, used fractional exponent to scale properly according to size
   (*) Made grazing tile selection less top-left biased and made it prefer non-creature'd tiles with denser grass

   (*) Handled some issues with subterranean areas being removed through trees

   (*) Stopped animals with kills from getting trinkets from corpses
   (*) Stopped animals from growing attached to and bestowing names on items in their possession
   (*) Stopped embark screen from setting neighbors with regular sites that happen to have zombies (due to another bug)
   (*) Made "place item in tomb" job governed by burial instead of item hauling labor

   (*) Stopped inside above ground corpses/corpse pieces from being destroyed periodically
   (*) Stopped evaporation of inside above ground water from depending on the weather

Hmmm, now we'll have to figure out how much space each grazer requires all over again.

Ahh, and I see the return of projectile vomiting cave adapted dwarves. Good times!

Does [GRAZE_COEFFICIENT:100] set in d_init.txt mean you can't set [GRAZER:60]+ in the creature_.txts? or would you just replace [STANDARD_GRAZER] with [GRAZER:#] in the creature_.txts if you wanted to revert to the old way for some animals but still allow those with [STANDARD_GRAZER] to use the set value from the d_init.

Thanks, Toady. Your continued work is much appreciated.

Yeah, just use [GRAZER:#] in an animal to revert it to what it was before.  GRAZE_COEFFICIENT only affects the STANDARD_GRAZER formula.

Yeah Toady! Thanks for the update. Finally, my dwarves can charge off into battle, supported by a wall of elephants and rhinos again! (Small suggestion: the ability to forge armour for war animals the size of grizzlies and up)

Uhh could we get this as an init option like adventurer traps for this being on? then again wonder if it's possible to get adventurer pets like train an animal to be either war/hunting, we already have the ability to vainly talk to the animals just we need is some way to get them to answer back.

Also will this have an effect on modded creatures like playable cats or dogs now unable to get trinkets like other races dwarves unless the modder figures out what triggers the no trophies option?

Thank You ToadyOne for focusing on bug fixes. I am far more excited and happy about these bugs fixes vs new content being added to a buggy game. Thank you so much. You have my praise.

[FallenAngel]

I find the fact that dwarves could clean body parts they no longer have or internal organs hilarious.

[jthill]

   (*) Stopped dwarves from trying to clean their own missing or internal body parts

I have a persistent memory of one of the Sims 2 loading-activity taglines being "destabilizing orbital payloads" long ago.


Who'd ever have thought a bugfix could eclipse that?

[Robsoie]

Thank for that new wave of bugfixes, very appreciated.

[Zarathustra30]

Thank you, oh great one! My megaproject causeway fort went from 10 FPS to 18 FPS!

Sweet, Fortress season is now open for me, the massive list of bugs fixed with each release is amazing.  Really excited to finally be embarking for a long fort in the new version.     Thanks, Toady!  Will donate when I'm not so poor again.   

Took me ages to find a medium island with all large landmasses connected (always feels like a waste if they aren't).  Anyone know if diagonally-adjacent land tiles on the world-view are counted as connected?  If so I could have narrowed my search down earlier.

Thank you, oh great one! My megaproject causeway fort went from 10 FPS to 18 FPS!

And mine jumped from 13 FPS to a fluctuating 18.  Many thanks!
