Restart in Ruins - start over same colony settlement
Wish that if you lost you could restart with your 4-8 beavers in your past ruins - you have to fix up and repair, some things you can only scavenge - but overall you get to keep your city and continue to grow on it. (Really hard to get motivated to start another game when you already spent hours upon hours building this one really amazing city)

David C BollingerDwarf Fortress has this as well, it's really great if you die horribly. All your items are scattered everywhere or lost, and stuff is a bit overgrown, but the buildings are still there, all paused. That would be super cool, you could gradually unpause buildings you needed until your settlement was back up and running, instead of starting over from square 1.

Cybogan MergedWhat do you all think about maybe if your map full of beavers dies out, there could possibly be a traveling group that wonders into your now ghost map. with this small number of beavers you can try to rebuild civilization with your previous constructions?

Shane S MergedCurrently, When starvation kills population it endlessly continues. This should automatically go into a fast forward of the decay and natural ruin of the town and surrounds until a new town centre appears and a new population begins. this Group will be able to recover resources from the ruins of old village and make use of the paths. thus renewing the cycle of life. - and endless game as it were. this natural ruin or wear and tear of buildings could also introduce a maintenance of buildings through a workshop building and employees to maintain it all aswell.

Wybe MergedSometimes I'm really happy with the settlement I've built but had the bad luck (or poor planning) that resulted in having my beavers die. I'd really like an option (something that could be disabled for hardcore players) to start on the map as it currently sits, with a new group of beavers. This could disable stuff like future achievements (if they're planned) etc so the "losing" would still have some value but it would allow us to continue on a map. Alternatively, saving the current state of the map so you can start again on it (with buildings present) could also work.
