world gen stops at 250 years

[Grimmrog_SIG]

anyone else managed to go further?

[Eqqsquizitine Buble-Schwinslow]

Yes.

The furthest I've gotten was to something like year 600 or 700, but it always crashes around that point, or more commonly, even earlier.

The 250 year limit is the default limit.

You can change this at the world generation screen (pick year 500 instead) or by going into advanced worldgen.

The longer your history, the bigger your world, the bigger your embark, the more heavier and likely crash-prone your game. Just FYI.

go for it, travel to the future and mine the world out XD

I really wonder what makes the game stop

[Bralbaard]

There are some settings, under detailed worldgen at least, that make world gen stop if a certain percentage of megabeasts have died.

Megabeast death % will stop it, but all of those settings are adjustable in the custom world gen settings.

I did found my "problem" when I entered a number for the worlds age, I did not press Enter, and that does not enter the number into the value to be used. thats also.
