Just manually checked all visible locations of the embark. Cannot locate babies.

Babies siege? :D

Actually maybe you embarked on top of underground tunnel or some underground site and the babies live there?
(0024945)
Gentlefood   
2014-07-07 23:24   
Unlikely. This embark has been around for almost two years and the babies only appeared recently. Oddly enough after retiring and unretiring the babies 'disappeared' only to slowly return to the other tab.

I can confirm, 15~ babies of various civs all on my site, not even midwinter of the first year.

Got the exact same issue here, but the babies appeared right after I was sieged by 2 (yes, only two) undead goblin swordsmen. Then a wave of 11+ babies appeared on my units screen, but nowhere to be found.

An interesting thing about that save is that there is one baby visible under the "citizens" tab. It can't be zoomed to either, but its relationships can be viewed, and neither of its parents exist in the fortress (that is, they're not listed at all). One suggested explanation is that these babies are born in the outside world (see http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=140075.0 [^]), although it doesn't explain why not all of them are listed under the "other" tab.

They appear to seemingly randomly disappear off and then reappear onto the other units page. On occasion I'll see them in the citizens tab as well. The save was actually taken after I had retired and then unretired the fort to attempt to investigate the legends page. So they're all unloaded from the screen. If you run the fort for a season or perhaps shorter they'll begin to reappear.

I am getting this as well. At times I have close to 100, and it's giving me a serious FPS hit.

Seeing the same thing here. The number is steadily climbing at a couple new ones every minute, and after about 45-50 of them, my FPS has dropped significantly and continues to go down with each new baby.

I've noticed the babies are of all races, and also begin to appear exactly 9 months after embark. Guessing these are babies born in the outside world getting incorrectly linked to the fort?

Does anyone checked legend mode?

Gentlefood   
2014-07-12 13:57   
I checked the legends page on my save, could not locate them as historical figures.

Maybe they dont even exist and are only "virtual babies"

I suspect they come from the births that happen around the world, and they've already caused the tab crash (fixed for next time). I'm hoping to also stop the babies entirely for next time, but first I have to see if my suspicion is borne out.

Yeah, the mystery babies were the historical births of the world. All of them. They didn't get their location set, but they were "put into play", so they got on the unit list.
