Summary0001601: Site finder region map lies
DescriptionThe region (middle) map on the site finder can show incorrect information, indicating a biome not present on the corresponding local (left) map.
Steps To ReproduceUse the Medium Island world generation parameters, modified to use the following fixed seeds.

SEED: 631736448
HISTORY_SEED:656968774
NAME_SEED:1936735574
CREATURE_SEED:2273313248

Go into the site finder, and find the NPC dwarven fort Alekmosus. It's on the fifth grid from left, and seventh grid from the bottom on the global map. Close to the left is a ruin, Zomuslosm.

Several of the worldmap grids above these two sites, are light green tau, quote, n, and intersection symbols. These suggest the presence of hill and shrubland biomes.

However, most of these squares are all forest, on the Local map.
Additional InformationNote: I tried generating a new world copying just the main seed, and while that world had a broadly similar map, this area did not exist (was just forest). Perhaps with this particular history-seed, the NPC dwarves deforested the area, and the region map knows this but the local map does not...

(In Fortress mode itself, the area does seem to be actually still forested.)
