Summary0012411: Center surface of the map pathing black-hole
DescriptionDF version: v50.07 (steam)
OS: Windows 11
Explanation: I've attached a screen shot of the location of the problem.
Dwarves can path to this place but become stuck. I moved two different
squads here, and when the command is canceled they do not leave this spot.
The screen shot shows a military dwarf that wants to go to combat training
and I cannot see any reason that he can't path there, but he does not move
at all. Two non-military dwarves seemed to be stuck here originally, the
others became stuck as I instructed them to move there.

I double checked that pathing worked from the fortress to this location, so
the return path is not blocked.

I've attached the save file here:

Save loaded, issue confirmed. The stuck dwarves are on the surface northwest of a large excavated hole in the ground. The dwarves are starving, do not have military orders, are not restricted by burrows or terrain, and completely stationary. This is abnormal behavior for a dwarf.

The map has four hostile agitated ravens flying above the stuck dwarves which were not mentioned in the report. Issuing a DFHack command "exterminate BIRD_RAVEN" killed the ravens, causing dwarves to return to normal pathfinding.

I think I am also seeing a tile/area-dependant pathfinding bug, I have several Dwarves stacked on top of each other in a 'problem tile' in the hospital and I have tiles that dwarves just will not dig or smooth etc.
