Is anybody getting a download thing when you click the index stuff at the top above the posts? Its damn annoying....

-Constant "A section of Cavern has collapsed!" spam from -16 z-level at the start of embark. I'll use reveal and see what's down there if it persists.

EDIT: Or at least I will when a compatible version of reveal is released.

Dead vermin seem to never rot away.

Bronze Collosi can only be melted, so far I have observed.

I could localize some hidden fun stuff by checking the Room list. It showed me an upright Adamantine Scimitar. I could zoom to it and I kinda knew there was something worth to look for. Might've been the dwarven bling senses tingling, tho.

When I use shift+numpad to navigate the embark screen it starts shaking around. Leaving the scope of DF and coming back seems to fix it.

Bugs:
Once got a cave-in underground right after embarking
Hunters that I embark with don't hunt, can't speak of immigrant hunters
Channeling creates ramps
Refuse seems to stick around a lot longer, not sure that's a bug or not, on the subject of refuse:
I can't seem to be able to create a bone, shell or skull stockpile; They're gone from the refuse stockpile item list
Space no longer exits menus (this one is probably the biggest annoyance)

Still extremely fun, mind! I managed to get myself killed by a sudden goblin ambush in the first spring.

It's enough to choke one Hydra head to make it suffocate.

lol, you'd think it would be able to breathe through its other heads.

Im getting a crash once I select "Create a New World Now!" or "Design a New World With Parameters"

The error report says that runtime had to end the process in an unusual way (whatever that means).

EDIT: I also can't do arena mode and I just realized that there was a "Microsoft Visualizer C++" at the top of the error report.

You can buy insect brains at embark. What.
Also, they cost 2 points which isn't much, but considering you're buying something that's smaller than a finger nail...


Do they serve as one unit of food, so that one ant brain is as nourishing as a plump helmet? If yes, it wouldn't make sense, but I can't imagine the game distinguishing between those things. On the other hand, Toady has surprised me greatly with this release.

My game wont go farther when I create a world, it is stuck on synchronizing.

- batmen have "eye tooth" (probably a problem with animal men)!

Eye teeth are real things, unless you're saying that bats specifically don't have them (I don't know, but I assume they do).

Prepared horse brain that I've got on Embark is displayed in "Meat" section of Z-Stocks menu, not Prepared Meals (but it might be desired)

Prepared organs are basically bits that have been scraped clean, made ready to eat - like prepared fish in the last version.
However, as people have pointed out, you can bring along certain vermin brains that you probably shouldn't be able to.

One of them is made out of Saguaro Rib.

The saguaro cactus does have ridges which might be called 'ribs'; I'm not sure if this is deliberate or not.

Clothier cancelled construct silk Bag: Needs 10000 silk cloth.

Not a bug. Cloth is measured in units now.

- There seems to be a problem with making prepared food out of booze.  They drag barrels of booze into the kitchen and then just stand there until they get too hungry/thirsty/tired and then leave.

I've been boozecooking all over the place, and didn't get anything like this. Maybe there's a burrow conflict or something?

More bugs:
- Animalmen become friendly after helping you to fight off deep-HFS (on a reclaim fortress).
- I note that under 'creature extracts' on embark, you can bring along barrels of all manner of blood. Some that are clearly bugs, such as gremlin blood and dragonfly ichor, and some (like cow blood) that maybe make sense.
- There is the wrong sort of apostrophe in some of the raws, so you get a little boxes/chests-symbol instead in creature descriptions.
- Dwarves can sustain three pages of injuries, including "broken heart", and survive indefinitely without bleeding out.

everyone begins to level up to legendary wrestling

- Dwarves seem to be able to level up both wrestling and striking almost instantly, as long as they started out with no military skills at all.

I'm having my dwarves that are constantly busy (woodcutters in a large area, miners with a large designation) be too dedicated to the job, I.E. they are starvng themselves in order to keep working.

This, and becoming exhausted/weary but not giving up.

Also I noticed that for the most part Volcanos seem to have a rather consistant shape to them. Donno if that's a plus or not, but it seem strange.

Yes, surface - magma pipe - volcano things seem to have the exact same cross-section shape all the way down until they hit the

magma ocean.

It's just an aesthetic thing, but it looks artificial.

- My carpenter has gone into a fey mood, and is requesting body parts.

O/T, I'd just like to say that this is totally awesome. Was the mood successful?

Sleeping people don't wake up when hit. I just beat an entire family to death with my axe. if it stuck in someone I twisted it.

They never woke up.

I have a novice armorer immigrant.  I set a metalsmith's forge to build.  Requirement: "any metalsmithing".  Armorer lounges around in the dining room doing nothing.  Forge doesn't get built.

Edit - same thing with an immigrant stonecrafter.  I set up a craftshop to do stonecrafts and mugs.  One of the original 7 does it fine.  If I give him a pick and get him mining, the immigrant stonecrafter just sits there doing nothing.
