every time there's a new release, I'm like "I should get back playing now" but then I forget about it for a week or so and there already are new fixes in the next release which I consider worth waiting for :v:
From 25 dwarfs working cheerfully to 8 survivors being chased around by a couple of bone golems.

So i dont know what button i pressed by accident but my entire interface is gone. I only see the z-level im on map. I can still do everything fine and the menus pop up for that specific botton but how do i get the 3 windows back with the map, possible actions, and world map back?
Tab.

So i arrived at my quest location and it shows 3 stars on my compass, yet the creature is nowhere to be found im just standing by a river. What do?
Look around for a cave.

This just got posted on Reddit:

The context for this image is, that I found one of my dwarven children appear nauseous, and proceeded to check his status. I had a fair amount of booze and a well inside my fortress, and a brook outside. I was not prepared enough.

My Ghoul just died.
To a reanimated human bone.
I told him to go kill it, the Black Monolith was fucking ressurecting bones within my Fortress that I didn't want (And needed) so I told the ghoul to kill the fucking human bone.
It was just a bone.
But instead the bone somehow fucking propelled itself into his brain within 10 combat logs.
Fucking Dwarf Fortress.
UPDATE:
I've decided not to fuck with the human remains, coincidentally I was being besieged by Humans when a huge Thunderbird came, divebombed the Humans and promptly died while taking some with them.
Man this game never lets up with it's hilarity.
I'm thinking of returning to DF, i haven't played in a year. How stable is the newest version in Fortress Mode? Are there any noticable bugs? I wanted to return when DF 2014 came out, but it was full of bugs so i decided to wait. Also, im planning to use Masterwork so how frequent are the updates to the game now?
Masterwork is still on 2012. He's planning on moving it forward to 2014, but it's going to take a total rewrite so it'll be a while.

I hope he keeps the 2012 Versions, because I thoroughly enjoy them and i'll dislike having to make moats around the entirety of everything.
They won't be updated anymore I assume, but I don't see why he'd take them down.

Also I'm not really sure why the moat situation would change.

I believe enemies cannot climb out of water, so if they can scale walls you simply make a moat around your Fortress and they're unable to climb. If not then i'll just build fortifications on each so they can't climb.
Can't you just build over the tile on the outside to stop climbers? Like in Minecraft how you stop spiders from getting on your roof? Could also fully enclose the area, stops flyers too.

I know I can do that. I'd just rather not to. I'm a horrible aesthetics person.
Extend the top level farther forward and upward by one tile, make the overhang a carved fortification. Instant murder holes.

Might have to push it up another z-level to make sure the enemy can't fire back.
Top tip: if you send your night untouchable master dodger dwarf spearlord to fight a forgotten beast, try to make sure they meet somewhere with open space for dodging, rather than, say, a 2x1 stairway.
