-Ability to zoom in the SDL version

So legacy is just DF without a few unimportant features, so sdl is the way to go? Thanks for the superfast response!

SDL implements all the 3D driver interface stuff.

Legacy is really only to be used if SDL fails to run, or if Toady wants to see if a bug is caused by SDL.

That was fixed in 0.31.18.

SDL is also much faster; at least it is for me.

Only in dwarven culture is alcohol poisoning a death worthed investigating, while being impaled through several toes, a eye, and a thumb from a spiraling water[3] is not.  Because everyone knows, the only way a dwarf could get alcohol poisoning is if someone put poison into the alcohol.
