0008723: Unknown Fortress Mode Crash
My fortress modes in the past two versions have suffered from the fate of an untimely, sudden, inevitable crash. I have no leads as to why this occurs, but I do have two crash reports. Would someone be kind enough to tell me how I should upload these?

Did you build anything near an underground tree?

@ptb_ptb I did not build near an underground tree, no. Or do you mean part of a tree which was underground, i.e. above roots? In which case, yes, but I believe construction was being finished/was finished already.

@Tzalizkan Actually building over tree branches above ground or underground will cause a crash. Building over roots shouldn't do anything, though.

Incidentally, while playing on DF 0.40.23 I had about two unexplained crashes in around 20 game years. Restoring from seasonal backups and playing from there again didn't cause the crashes to re-occur.

Link service: ptb_ptb is probably referencing 0008719, Building a floor over an underground tree ramp causes crash

@ptb_ptb Actually, that's probably what it was. Sadly.

Okay, we'll chalk it up to that one. Please reopen if contradictory information emerges.
