| Summary | 0007157: Town population oddness in adventurer fast travel. | ||||
| Description | Save file link: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8919 Watching the '#' town Ponderedplunge to the east, move east in Fast Travel. Fairly shortly, the '#' should suddenly drop two population levels to '+'; reversing direction (or continuing on) may result in it switching back to '#', or else changing to '*'. (I've also observed the sun sometimes suddenly turning into a moon and back again (without changing position in the sky, likewise day changing to night and then back to day upon retracing the last step taken), but don't have a reproducible save of that for the moment.) For the population matter, this may have something to do with being unable to find any shops now (after killing a shopkeeper?). The '*' town Foughtstrap had become a + town without shops, but I thought that going to the different-civilisation # town Ponderedplunge would allow me to use shops again; however, it likewise suddenly became a + town as soon as I approached it, which seems abnormal. This save is taken right before it switches to a + display (and switching back temporarily is particularly strange, maybe something to do with the transition between the zoomed-in/-out modes of fast travel). I tried to get a save one fast travel step before the change, but upon saving and loading again I found the # town already displaying as +, thus this save which starts a few more fast travel steps to the west. | ||||

Hello again! I'm adding another uploaded file to this issue, observed when rebuilding the world in 0.40.02 in an attempt to circumvent the situation I found myself in last time. Ponderedplunge appears as # in the Legends mode map both before creating an adventurer and after retiring an adventurer, but as + in the Ctrl-Q map as the adventurer inbetween. There's only about a 320 population drop between before and after (though if that could also be stopped it would be pleasant), from a starting population of over 2500, and no clear reason why the icon should drop two levels to + upon adventurer-creation or why it should go back to # after adventurer-retirement. Thank you for your time! http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8929 |
