A Dwarf Fortress bug was causing wildlife to go berserk if you fished

Fishing is normally a relatively tranquil pastime, but it hasn't been lately for many dwarves. A Dwarf Fortress bug that appeared after the launch of the Steam edition this week caused local wildlife to fly into a murderous rage if your dwarves went fishing in a nearby stream in the management game.

Many crashes fixed! Patch notes for 50.02 (December 8, 2022)

Tarn here!

This is a quick release mainly to handle a widescreen crash and some menu issues there. With that stabilized, we'll be able to start properly addressing the reports and feedback we've collected for a bulkier patch next. Thanks for a wonderful launch!

Major bug fixes
  • Fixed crash from compressed menu lists (e.g. workshop assignment) on widescreen default settings
  • Changed init option for interface pixel width to be a percentage (to fix many widescreen menu issues)
  • Stopped fishing from hugely amplifying creature agitation in the wilds (zeroed general agitation level in old saves)



    Graphics additions/changes
  • Improved images for planned walls, floors, and fortifications
  • Updated doors, hatches, chests, and other containers so that palettes will affect handles and other add-ons if the mods desire it, but made the default behavior consistently not palettize these add-ons
  • Missing occupied animal trap images included

P.S.
Editor's note from Kitfox: this will help MANY of the crashes ya'll are experiencing. Basically anytime it crashed in a menu, I suspect this version will fix it. There's still a few less common bugs of course, so we know we have lots of work left, but I suspect this will make it MUCH more stable for those of you who were having trouble and weren't using 1920x1080 resolutions. Thank you for your patience thus far.
