v0.34 Talk:Hive
The hive limits may be based on biome or some other factor. My current fortress has 52 hives with no restriction messages, however, if I add a 53rd hive, I get the "too many hives, output limited" message. --Telarin 17:45, 27 March 2012 (UTC)
Frozen dwarfs
I've noticed that if you get too many hives created but not populated, a dwarf will head off on a task to install a new colony but will freeze in place, eventually starving/dying of thirst. If you change the hive status on all unoccupied hives to "do not install colony", the dwarf will unfreeze. I have found that the best way to do initial hive population is one hive at a time. Once you've got established hives and are just populating by split, I haven't seen any problems. Anyone else notice this?
