0008093: Spontaneous loyalty cascade (or civil war?) when I entered a marketplace
Well, this is more of a case of no clue what the heck is going on. At this save point, it's been going on for a bit and I did go to fast travel and back into the marketplace to reset all of the units positions.

What happened was that a bit before the marketplace, I sheathed my weapon and shield, then when I walked into the marketplace, saw people running around, a night creature talking somewhere and everybody talking about revenge, then bam, the butchers started going at it. All I did was walk into the area and things happened.

I'm just walking around with yield activated and observing, my current conversation options are 'ask to stop hostilities', 'ask people to yield' and 'brag about violent acts'. However, nobody seems to be hostile to me.
Random. No clue honestly.

Mayday graphics pack.

Also wish there was a DFhack tool to find out what the hell is going on.......

Edit: It seems to be mostly confined to the marketplace and nearby areas atm, saw some corpses in buildings in the area and a local peasant and chieftian seemed to join in, briefly.

Also, the green combat movement arrows keep showing up everywhere for some reason and people are freaking out. This one will be a real puzzle for Toady One to figure out.

Edit2: Shop signs have disappeared, but nobody has said anything about an insurrection...

Edit3: This is wierd, I slept the night and the shop indicators are still there in fast travel, went to a nearby site and back, still normal, apart from missing signs in normal travel. The shops haven't turned into taverns either....

If anybody downloaded it, redownload because I accidentially put up the wrong save.

I visited the same town again about a week later and the loyalty cascade is still active.

People did start freaking out initially, but I thought it was due to the corpses or something else. I saved it right as the combat started again, this time there are various guards involved. Looked at the rumors and it seems to have been started by someone named Tuco Donkeypoet.

Theres multiple x/bowmen shooting it out atm.
