What is up with this? On one of my farmers general info. as usual it says my farmers name with translation and job classification name(ex. farmer) but then right next to my farmers gender says titan... and on one of my other farmers it says hydra.. what is up with this? And if this is bug can you leave it? Having a hydra farmer is kinda cool.

This is odd.  Sounds like the unit files in the save folder are busted.  Did you ever quit out of the game without saving properly, due to a lockup or anything like that?

no... i have seen this once beofre as well... it was from one of the bloodline games from on the wiki... the dwarf fortress called aldecamde or something. it had a dwarf miner who was the leader of the kobold as a kobold master thief. Found that very odd. The only time i did get an unsaved thing like that everything was still the same except i had to start over from just before the regular river..

This happens to me every so often.  I've been assuming that I messed up some index files by adding creatures.

The universe rebuilds the creatures in the same order regardless of how you flip them around.  There've been a few problems with that along the way, but I think it's fine now.  This bug is more like the thing that would be caused by duplicate unit id numbers, which happens if the saves aren't done properly.  There might be other ways for it to happen as well, but nothing frequent.
