Summary0011673: [EXPERIMENT_ONLY] genned demons cause dark fortresses to be unplayable
DescriptionGenerated demons of [UNIQUE_DEMON] variety that stock fortresses and conduct experiments obstruct players from utilizing the dark_fortress site-type because of [EXPERIMENT_ONLY] native to them even when the advanced generation option is disabled.

Attempting to subvert this restriction by setting [ALLOW_DEMONIC_EXPERIMENTS:0] in advanced world generation simply causes dark_fortresses to not appear, and does not use player defined [UNIQUE_DEMON] or have the capacity to extend to another creature as a alternative installed as the monarch/master.
Steps To ReproduceEnable dark fortresses as [SITE_CONTROLLABLE], and establish a advanced worldgen definition of [ALLOW_DEMONIC_EXPERIMENTS:1]. Goblin civs will be skipped from civ placement similarly to removing all demons outright.
Additional InformationConfirmed indirectly by Toady [EXPERIMENT_ONLY] specifically stops use in play.

This in theory extends to possibility that a necromancer with [EXPERIMENT_ONLY] taking control of a last remaining dwarf civ might crash/corrupt or prematurely retire the game also when backed out of active fortress play in vanilla.

Necromancers also have worldgen tokens as [ALLOW_NECROMANCER_EXPERIMENTS:1] on by default, but i couldnt confirm at this time whether removing their ability to conduct experiments actually removes them outright similarly.

Changed circumstances for 47.05, demons remain but since the relevant update of [CHAT_WORTHY] it no longer CTD when made playable with the relevant positions so this can be closed outside of concerns for other experimentors.
