Summary0000557: Stone types in embark area duplicated
DescriptionThe stone layers listed on the embark screen are duplicated sometimes, e.g.:
Sandy Loam
Granite
Granite
Diorite
Quartzite
Diorite
etc.

I think it is counting the layers in different biomes in the embark area. I have only seen it with stone, not soil.

This is normal - while you may see a given number of Z-levels of Diorite in the selected biome, you'll have to go through approximately twice as many Z-levels of Granite first.

This was also possible in the previous version; you could end up with two layers of granite, gabbro, etc. on the bottom. The new version lists in the same manner; each stone is a layer. So you have soil, then granite, then granite at the next layer, then diorite, then quartzite, then another layer of diorite... their thickness corresponds to the settings in the worldgen parameters.

Seems to not be a bug, recommend closing.
