Summary0012655: Crash on Limestone 17
DescriptionCrash occurs at the end of Limestone 17 with the error:
One of the compressed files on disk has errors in it. Restore from backup if you are able.
This is not during a save of the game, just during normal play.
No errors in errorlog.txt

Environment:
Steam version
DFHack from Steam
SoundSense (with manually modified annc-monitor.lua file)
No other modifications

Troubleshooting steps:
Uninstalled/reinstalled, copy over the save - Crash at limestone 17
Deletion of Dwarf Fortress folder, clean install, copy over the save - Crash at limestone 17
Disable DFHack, clean install, copy over the save - Crash at limestone 17
Disable soundsense, clean install, copy over the save - Crash at limestone 17
Install Classic version of 50.11 and copy over the save - Crash at limestone 17
Steps To ReproduceRepeatable from the save starting at Limestone 1.
Repeatable from the save starting at Limestone 17

play the save to Limestone 17 and it crashes.
Additional InformationUnique occurrences:
1st Baron has died since last dwarven caravan
1st dwarven liason died in a river at first visit
2nd dwarven liason appeared properly next two visits

Theft of an artifact happens around Limestone 8 in the Limestone 17 save, but I don't believe this is related to the crash because it is preventable in the Limestone 1 save and the crash still happens on Limestone 17.

Potential duplicate of 0008398

Potentially related to 0012018
Work-around for that one, a deletion of all .dat files in the save folder, does allow the caravan to arrive on Limestone 17.
I'll do more testing and try to narrow down which dat file causes the problem.

After spending some time sorting through the .dat files in the save folder, I was able to narrow down the corrupt file to:
unit-8814.dat
https://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=16949

Deleting this file from the save allows the game to progress past the caravan/liason arrival.

The problematic save is from limestone in 503.
I found a save from Late summer 502 with the same unit-8814.dat file. I transferred this unit-8814 file to the new save and loaded. The caravan/liason did arrive properly.
