You've probably got some place where magma and water meet, I wouldn't worry about it. (Or, that's what I've been told.)

The magma tube is not the only place with magma.

Congrats, Psieye. This is the first time I've seen a derailed thread get put back on the rails.

It is also possible for the caverns to form in such a way that mud is floating in midair.  Saplings grow in the floating mud, mature into trees, and then promptly cave in.  I have a spot underneath my current fortress that routinely produces caveins this way.

I have some spots in my caverns that cave in always on loading the save. I think it's causing that part of the caverns to flood slightly/gradually.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

It happens. If it makes you nervous, you can load your save in an earlier version of DF and run Reveal to make sure you haven't already breached the HFS.

If something always cave in when loading save, regarless when save was done, you have bug. Report it on mantis and sent save.
