Ants tiles camouflage on dungeon floor
Numerous times I've had my autoexplore stop, and spending 15 seconds trying to find that Working ant that came into view.
Am I the only one?
If you are interested in helping with tiles, vaults, patches or documentation, this is the place for that.

Lava fish are very hard to see. I guess this could be on purpose but then, ice beasts aren't hard to see on an ice level.
Actually if a lava area with lots of fish I just save and go to console mode till its over.
