Nothing can be done if it's not reproducible.  Does it happen consistently with a particular worldgen seed?

On that point I'm not entirely sure, but it seems that the longer worldgen goes on for the more chance it has of occuring. I was able to gen a few pocket worlds, but nothing bigger than medium or so, and a few of those had problems. I'll try a few test runs with specific seeds first.

By the way, are you using any mods?  Custom worldgen parameters?

Your copy of the program might be corrupted. Don't delete the original, but try downloading a new version of the file and test that.

Fixed it - just a typo in worldgen files  :-[

Out of curiosity... what typo causes this error to occur?

Indeed this is interesting and should probably be documented for robustness if nothing else.

I'm not quite sure how, probably by accidentally doing something wrong with the world-painter, but there was an extra 600-or-so lines of gibberish in the world-gen txt file.

Yeah.

It may have just been the txt file being too big due to all of this stuff. I already had 10 custom worldgen setting in there, so it seems likely.

If everything's okay now, you can retitle the thread accordingly (by editing the original post) so that Toady won't have to read it.
