0000520: Wagon ended up in cave on embarkation
When I embarked on a cave, the wagon ended up inside the cave, rather than on the surface. 5x5 map size with cave directly in the center square.

It's a really minor thing, but I don't think that was the intended outcome.
Have not tried to reproduce, but it should be easy enough to try embarking on multiple caves.

I had something similar happen... I embarked on an extreme cliffs map, and upon embark I get the discovered a cave message. So I think "Oh cool, I wonder where..." Turns out, it was not so much a cave, as it was a hill full of Ettins that were not friendly, about 10 tiles away from my wagon. It was fun watching my embark party just freak out as their wagon got destroyed and they were promptly all dashed into the nice cliffs though. I had one guy go unconscious way on the edge of the map, and ended up having to abandon, as he would not die, or wake up.
