Pseudo-Freezing.
« on: November 09, 2007, 12:37:00 am »
Greetings.

Several years into my fortress, I have encountered a particularly nasty spat of freezing that occurs periodically from an unknown source. I am unable to locate said source despite disabling many features in the game.

The freezing itself is sometimes not permanent - the best example I can give is a stroke. Something is obstructing the CPU cycles and the blockage (sometimes) clears. The end result is uneven crashes.

I have included the save file and I can answer any questions required.

Buggy file here.

This happens very commonly from miserable/tantrumming dwarves. Are any of your dwarves very unhappy, or have they been in the recent past?

As Strom said, any dwarves that are unhappy or lower will freeze up the game for a long period of time when they switch mood levels.
