0004490: Game crashes when scrolling bedroom assignments - TrueType crash due to dwarf name
When i try to assign a bedroom, the game crash if i try to display a given page, i assume it is because it is supposed to display a dwarf wich is buggy. Scrolling down OR up to it changes nothing.

1) Download my savegame, or manage to get a dwarf in a cage in a buggy way (he was unconsicous so he was trapped normally, but he sort of died after that and it is now in the twilight zone). Link to my savegame on dffd here : http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=4180 [^]
2) Try to assign a bedroom and scroll down the list
I think it is related to the dwarf on the first floor which is not dead and not alive (can't see him in my alive list, neither on the deceased list).

I tried to smash the cage and the dwarf in it (by collapsing the n+1 floor), but it didn't solved my crash issue.
No tags attached.

After i managed to release the caged dwarf and putted him to rest, i can say it is not his fault if the game crashes, because the bug is still here.

Do you have TrueType font on?

Does turning it off negate the crash?

Actually, YES IT SOLVED MY PROBLEM !!!

Btw, i had the same issue with burrows, game was crashing when i scrolled down this list, tool.

Thank you a lot, i can go on with my game :)

There is a bug somewhere with true type fonts, but i guess you can mark it as resolved :)

Correction: this might be the first time truetype in a dwarf name is reported as crahsing the game.
