[[Main:Toady|Tarn Adams]] assigns a '''version number''' for every [[Main:Dwarf Fortress|Dwarf Fortress]] release. Recent version numbers contain three number sections defining the release information. The older format contained four - see the older versions of this page for more information.
+
The '''version number''' identifies each [[Dwarf Fortress]] release. [[Toady|Tarn Adams]] assigns it when he publishes a release. Version numbers come in two forms, the newer short form and the older long form.

=Newer short form:=

Version numbers are composed of three numbers. Each component has its own meaning:
  
 
# The first number is how many hundreds of core components have been completed.
 
# The first number is how many hundreds of core components have been completed.
 
# The second number is the total number of [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/dev.html core] components completed.
 
# The second number is the total number of [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/dev.html core] components completed.
−
# The third number is increased by one for each "minor" release (one that does not advance the core components completed, usually a bug-fix release) of a version.
+
# The third number is increased by one for each bug-fix release of a version.

Version numbers were composed of four numbers and a letter, and possibly another number after the letter. Each component had its own meaning:
 +
 
 +
# The first number was how many hundreds of core components had been completed.
 +
# The second number was the total number of [http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves/dev.html core] components completed.
 +
# The third number was the total number of [[Powergoal#Reqs|required]]<sup>1</sup> components completed.
 +
# The fourth number was the total number of [[Powergoal#Bloats|bloat]]<sup>1</sup> components completed.
 +
# The adjacent letter was increased by one alphabetically for each bug-fix release of a version.
 +
# The number after the letter referred to openGL optimizations. These reflected no changes to the gameplay, only to top-level interface and improved performance on newer video cards.
 +

v0.28.181.40d19, the 19th optimisation release of the 4th bugfix release of the version of Dwarf Fortress with 28 core components, 181 required components and 40 bloat components complete.
