.13 - embarked on an evil saltwater marsh to avoid the sprawl

I have only had buggy migrants on the first wave - I got a thief and a war peasant (130 dwarf fortress at the moment).  I made my thief the broker, and it virtually guarantees he won't be doing some other task other than trading.  Unfortunately, the other times he's hanging out in the meeting room, and now he's got so many friends the thief has become the mayor.

I have gotten about 3 legendary warriors, too.

Seriously, though - the FPS increase in .13 more than makes up for any buggy migrants.  Time is flying by so fast caravans are leaving before I remember that they had arrived.

I was thinking of going back to 0.23, but it isn't supported on Linux That or my WINE ain't working

That or my WINE ain't working

The upgrade patch from white to red fixes a few issues.

Currently, I'm using .12, but if the FPS increase is as great as some of you guys are saying, I'm going to have to check that out. How noticeable is the difference?

Well in .13 i found a nice limestone mountian with a forest and river.  It is faster and pack more food then you usually would because in my current fort i packed food to last 9months to a year and ran out within 5 months and my planter was on break.  Oh and not even 2 years in and 60 somewhat dwarves.

I use 31.12. Mostly because of the bad things I've heard (read) about .13.

[Zaerosz]

31.12, waiting for .14 here.

31.12.  I don't mind the sprawl of .13 , but since I like to go back and forth between fort and adventure mode, empty sites aren't very appealing.  That said, a new player might want to learn on 40dx since the military/combat/recovery would be easier to figure out. 

[JAFANZ]

back to .12 due to the sprawl, adamantine bug, useless non-Noble migrants, & lack of a Lazy Newb Pack.

31.12 - I was int eh middle of a fort when .13 came out, and now that there's a working version of Dwarf Therapist for the Mac I'm pretty probably going to hang out there for a while longer at least.

Most of the problems with .13 can be avoided completely by importing a .12 world.  No sprawl.

Anyway, I haven't seen any increase in speed on my computer--which is admittedly slow so that doesn't mean much--and actually the first time I tried playing it had a massive decrease in speed.  But that seems to have gone away; I may have inadvertantly embarked on the hfs building or some such.

.12. Waiting for .14. Or .15... orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr .16. ugh.

[darkflagrance]

Technically I'm on 31.12, but my only still-active fort is on 40d.

[geoduck]

I'm still on 40d; I'll give the next update a try if it gets good reports from folks.

[dogstile]

I'm still on 40d.

Its (nearly) bug free and I enjoy it, what can i say?

[Burnt Pies]

Still on 40d, I can't be bothered to learn the new military.
