A phenomena of bad wall-shadow memory seems to be affecting this save as well, wherein the visibility-demarcating wall lighting of three-wall intersection (ie T) does not revert to a norm after the adventurer has moved away... it is stateful, and varies depending on the viewpoint's path near the wall. If this behaviour has not already been documented I can make a separate report with a similar save-file and image clips.

Maybe connected to 0006955, "Abandoned fortresses reconfigure when slept in / strange lighting"?

Definitely the layout is not being regenerated, although there seem to be clear signs of error in the layout (obviously). The second phenomena I have mentioned just involves the representation of wall intersections.

I can confirm this bug. The books are placed in the rock in room-shaped groups in the general vicinity of actual rooms (as if they were placed in one configuration and then the configuration shifted) which makes me think Detros is on the right track.

Were any of you not using DFHack? There's a possibility that this is related to open-legends issues in DFHack, e.g. https://github.com/DFHack/dfhack/issues/805 [^]
