I'm not putting this on the bug tracker because I'm not sure if I should put a bug on there when I dont know how it even happened :/
So I was piercing an aquifier by having it frozen by exposing it to air. Idiot miners froze themselves two times, so this is my third attempt at embarking here.
I placed floors over the open spaces over the ice walls, then had them removed. I then had my miners dig out down-stairs over the ice and then the game paused for no reason with two too dangerous terrain messages. And this happened:



The embark reverted to point where it was as if I had never mined(or done very much at all) but more... broken. There are also items that only "Kinda" exist(They don't show up using K, however one thing rotted and produced miasma that went through something I mined out before this happened). Also the river went to 7/7 water again.
What.

This is... strange. No, like... horribily strange. But stranger still.

Upload save and report it on Mantis. Optimistically, Toady will get around to it in, oh, say 10 years.

I'm 12 and what is this.

Weird stuff you got going on there though.

I uploaded the save:

Saving and then re-opening the save seems to have fixed the phantom items thing.

It's 0.31.14, not 32

I had this happen to me, not in .14, but in .13. It seems to happen if you embark upon a place you have abandoned, not reclaiming it. I am not sure about what happens if you properly reclaim a site, but just embarking on a site you abandoned, then removing a construction, seems to replicate this bug. Of course, you can exploit it by mining out all the useful material, then abandon then embark on it again. One more thing, any enemies who are on the ground when you abandon seem to become your allies once you embark on the same spot again.

If you only just abandoned the site, then the items haven't been entirely removed from the game's memory cache.
then unuseable but still there items.
