| Summary | 0010762: "fortressintro" message always says Spring, even though it's no longer guaranteed | ||||
| Description | <blockquote> You have arrived. After a journey from the Mountainhomes into the forbidding wilderness beyond, your harsh trek has finally ended. Your party of seven is to make an outpost for the glory of all of [civilization]. There are almost no supplies left, but with stout labor comes sustenance. Whether by bolt, plow or hook, provide for your dwarves. You are expecting a supply caravan just before winter entombs you, but it is Spring now. Enough time to delve secure lodgings, ere the [predators] get hungry. A new chapter of dwarven history begins here at this place, [fortress name], "[translated name]". Strike the earth! </blockquote> Ever since Dwarf Fortress was first released, the "Fortress Intro" announcement has assumed that you always embark during Spring. Since version 0.40.01, however, this is no longer the case - your very first embark within a given world will certainly be in Spring, but your next one could easily be in Summer, Autumn, or even Winter. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Generate a new world 2. Advance time by several months 3. Create a new Fortress in the world 4. Observe that the intro text says it's Spring, even though it isn't | ||||
