Forts ending shouldnt reset active zones in other pairings

Its no small truth that when forts are active the rest of the game grinds to a halt and for those of us not fortunate enough to get in there is not much else to do.
However it is even more frustrating when during that time you go into a lake, manage rank up the zone to get a seige going only for a fort flip to wipe all your progress
Today destro manged to push into stonetroll lord room and just as we were about to attack the lord the fell landing flip reset the zone and turned it back into a destro keep making it feel like you did nothing at all while fort was going on
Just my 2 cents

This indirectly also make fight us all the time in elf and dwarf pairing...since game give precedence to unlcok those bad zones...

To get this right:
When Elf fortress locked Empire T2 did reset?

This is not a new issue that was introduced with forts and something that we are investigating.
Obviously it's not intended and should be on bugtracker and not here

Well I am aware of the issue but if you have any information to add that might shed light on why it happens on rare occasions (there is code thats supposed to prevent this) then by all means Id love for a report on it.
My previous response was merely that its an obvious bug and those belong on the bugtracker
