0006565: Crash for unknown reason while game simply running in the background unattended
I embarked, did almost nothing except for make a couple of farm plots and a workshop or two, cut down a few trees. Then retired. Reclaimed without issue, then I got distracted, and the game ran with dwarves running around on its own for about 10 minutes before a hard crash.

Reloading the same game led to a crash again at the same point, with the dwarves standing in the same locations. There are no suspicious announcements or events or error logs. I'm guessing it has to do with some announcement, migrants, the caravan, etc. Or dwarves running out of supplies and getting hungry or thirsty.

I have the bugged savegame at:
http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=8740 [^]
1) Reclaim the fort "athelkol."
2) Let the game run on its own without doing anything for ~ 2 minutes.
3) Game should crash.
Nothing seems to show up in the errorlogs around the moment of crash.


No tags attached.

(it's 1 or 2 minutes now, not 10, because i saves a new version closer to the crash for convenience. Still always reproduces)

Also, just CONTINUE the fort athelkol now, not reclaim. Can't seem to edit the issue to specify.
