Dwarf Fortress is a constant work-in-progress, and is thus full of bugs. An official compilation of all bugs, and their development status, can be found on the Mantis Bug Tracker. The search results in the bug tracker sometimes have an unintuitive sort order, so make sure to scroll to the bottom of the first page of results when searching for bugs. To comment on any bug, you can "Login anonymously" and add a note.

Reporting new bugs

Please do not report new bugs here; to report a new bug, follow the How to Report Bugs in Dwarf Fortress instructions. For any other discussion of new or existing bugs, visit the #bug-discussion channel on the Official Kitfox Discord.

When reporting a bug:

  • Make a note of any mods you're using. If you made the mod yourself, include the raws for any relevant objects.
  • If the game is crashing or refusing to open, include any error message that appears, along with your computer specifications and operating system.
  • If you have a save that reliably reproduces the bug, it may be helpful to upload the save to the DF File Depot - Bugged Saves or another file hosting site.
