| Summary | 0013509: Crash to desktop shortly after loading existing fort | ||||
| Description | Has happened twice so far - Loaded my save, assigned a messenger and sent them off to offer peace to the human civ nearby. After a few in-game days, the game crashes to desktop without warning. I suspect this is messenger related; the site the messenger was sent to was less than a day away, and the timing of the crash feels like approximately the time they'd return to the fort. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | -Loaded up an existing fort -Assigned a messenger, and sent them off to try and make peace with a human civ -Set a few dig orders -ordered a few animals to be butchered -Unpaused, waited a couple of in-game days -Crash to desktop | ||||
| Additional Information | As a control, I've loaded the save a third time, and NOT assigned anyone to the role of messenger, and the game is currently well past the time it in-game it crashed, and seems to be having no issue | ||||

Update: The game running without a messenger also crashes before the end of the month, so I'm really not sure what it's related to now |

You should probably upload that save (the corresponding "region#" folder (or the one with the name you gave it) within your installation's "save" folder) to dffd.bay12games.com. |
