Summary0011164: NPCs at reclaimed site don't know who they are
DescriptionHere some odd behavior in Adventurer.
In the save below, my adventurer started in this site, a cave recently reclaimed (during initial worldgen) by my civ.

If you ask any of the NPCs around about their professions, they all say "I am a peasant" even though they are farmers, woodcutters, doctors, etc. If you ask them about the surrounding area they reply "ask me when I've returned home".

So it seems that NPCs at reclaimed sites aren't being properly connected to those sites.
Steps To ReproduceOpen save, talk to nearest dorf.

Save:

Additional InformationMay be unrelated, but this save also demonstrates the adventurer retire-unretire crash bug 0010364
TagsNo tags attached.

Tried a similar starting spot (reclaimed cave) in a new world (same raw tweaks) and this time npcs are all acting fine. They know who and where they are.

The new world I tried doesn't crash on retire-unretire either, so whatever was going on with the npcs previously might be a related side effect of the save corruption which caused the crash.

And in the same world mentioned in my last comment, I tried a new adventurer in a different cave (I think this one was reclaimed while I was playing, rather than a product of initial worldgen). This time, all the NPCs were confused again. Non-military dwarves all say "I am a peasant" and everyone says "Ask me when I've returned to my home".

In addition, on retire, my Adventurer is not listed in Legends. This also happens in the save above (mentioned in my comment on Adventurer crash bug 0010364)

However, unlike the initial reported save, unretire actually works without crashing. The only difference between this and my other reported confused NPC/Adventurer crash is that I'm not using save compression this time.

Also possibly relevant, the working cave embark was a proper ex-kobold site, the non-working one was an ex-ettin lair.

Save (demonstrates confused NPCs, missing Legends mode adventurer on retire, no crash):
