Gone up isn't really an adequate description for 6 hours.

Yeah, world gen is slower.  I can still squeeze something out of it.  It's mostly the goods being shuffled around and processed as far as I can tell.

For now, just generate smaller worlds.  Also, you can stop world gen early by pressing a key (Enter or something, it tells you on the screen).

However sometimes you can't because the process is advancing so slowly windows in it's infinite wisdom declares the program to be "not responding" and so you cannot do anything, like hit enter.
So it just ignores any input you send. I was lucky to manage to get an enter in in the second window on my laptop (that had been genning all day). I loaded up the world to find that all the dwaven civs were dead. Or I assume they were since I couldn't make a dwarven adventurer.

Okay, two worlds in a row now. Can only embark as elf, human or goblin. No dwarf. Is this a bug, or are these worlds actually devoid of dwarves?

I havent heard of this issue... the dwarfs may of died out. Its kinda of uncommon for it too happen in past games, but it is not unheard of.

I was thinking more along the lines of this legendary champion, all clad in dented and dinged up steel plate, his blood-drenched axe slung over his back, a notch in the handle for every enemy that saw the swing of that blade as the last sight they ever saw, a battered shield strapped over his arm... and a fluffy, pink stuffed hippo hidden discretely in his breastplate.

It's happened in 5 worlds in a row now.
I'm deleting the game folder and trying again completely from scratch.

There in the middle of town, providing the entire village with water is a well entirely encased in pitchblende blocks.

@Footjob, you can microwave most grains I've tried pretty easily through the microwave, even if they aren't packaged for it.

How do I get less thirsty as a vampire? I've already drunk a lot of blood, but it's not working.

There's really no point in long worldgens other than to have cities all over the place. I just gen to year 10, it's enough time for some cities and such to have spread out, plus there's still megabeasts around to provide !!Fun!!, and on top of it there's not as many creatures and the like so that results in better FPS.

Centration. Similar to Spacestation 13, but in 3D and first-person. Sounds damn awesome.

Last I heard you need a certain amount of years to pass for a Dragon to be adult enough to be Megabeast worthy...
