0001465: Magma pipe pierces underground caverns and aquifier causing issues.
I have a magma pipe that has pierced several underground caverns and an aquifier above the top of the pipe, causing the aquifier to fill and 'cap' the top of the pipe and flood the entire underground cavern.

I guess that the problem is the extra z levels above the pipe that don't have the usual border to protect the magma from aquifier layers.

Does this reproduce if you regenerate the world and embark at the same location? If so, it would be helpful if you:

a) export the world gen parameters from Legends and post them on http://pastebin.com/ [^] and

b) post a screenshot of the embark location on http://tinypic.com/ [^] (you can do this by abandoning the fortress, starting a new game in the same world, and hiting "Reclaim" to display the site of your fortress).

Gen was default Medium Island afaik.. pastebin link didn't work for me so I'll just host them myself.

I did it twice just to be sure, and yes. It happened both times.

Awesome, thanks for investigating. (and yeah, pastebin seems to be down, weird)
