| Summary | 0002247: Climate change in 0.31.06 | ||||
| Description | My game from 0.31.04 did not freeze in winter. I migrated it directly to 0.31.06, and now it freezes in winter. This is very annoying because my entire fort depends on not freezing in winter (it's above-ground). Here is the save file: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=2478 | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Load the above save in either 0.31.04 or 0.31.06 and wait until winter. 2. Observe that it only freezes in 0.31.06. | ||||

I think I'd say this is expected - seasonal temperature changes were part of how Toady fixed the Melting Rain bug. See bug 0000190, Toady's last comment. Does this explain your behaviour? |

Um..."I found a seasonal variation that was screwing it up. It's fixed now in the save there (a dwarf that was dying still dies). I can't rule additional causes out, but from what I can see it should be fine." doesn't explain anything, except that something was fixed. |

I noticed the same thing - I think it was a bug that is now fixed. You can check by waiting until summer and then turning off weather. I accidentally turned off weather in the init (to speed things up) and when I embarked I was surprised to see snow/ice over everything. Oh well, I thought, it will melt away. Well, no, actually, it will not unless you turn on weather. I turned it on and immediately it all melted away. Good luck. |

In other words, the fact that your game didn't previously freeze in winter might have been a side effect of the bug. |

Closing this on the assumption that it was caused by intentional temperature tweaks. |
