Summary0001150: Dwarf tame same animal over and over if "Tame large animal" put on repeat, food accumulates in cage
DescriptionIf you select the tame large animal order on kennels and put this order on repeat, the dwarf will constanly tame the same animal. So assuming you have two wild Elephants the dwarf will constantly tame the same Elephant without moving onto the second Elephant.

This results in a cage full of food, and possible tameing skill gain exploit.
Steps To ReproduceCatch wild animal in cage trap
Select Tame Large Animal from Kennel workshop menu
Select an animal from the list
Put Tame Large Animal order on Repeat
Additional InformationIf you transfer the tame animal, in this example an Elephant, the trainer is working on to another cage, then this announcement is spamed. "Trainer Cancles Tame Stray Elephant (Tame):Animal not Restrained"

This is apparently a really old bug: http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=6826.0

Good to have confirmation that it's still around though.

I'd say it's a bug that you can even put a "Tame [specific animal]" task on repeat, since it never really makes any sense to do so (the same applies to connecting a lever or pressure plate to something).

This one is irrelevant with the new taming system.

True. As the new system makes this bug obsolete, it gets a won't fix.
