| Summary | 0013081: Dwarves channeling large amounts of tiles on the same Z level sometimes fall, cling to walls, or cancel jobs | ||||
| Description | I was carving skyscrapers out of a mountain, one Z level at a time. I noticed that, often, there would be one unchanneled tile somewhere in the designation area. I also noticed that my dwarves would often end up falling one Z level, or cling to the walls adjacent to the Z level they were channeling. Recently, one of my dwarves died because they fell a single Z level and landed on their throat, pulping it. I don't think most of this is intended behavior. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Designate several large areas to be channeled out on a single Z level. 2. Watch as dwarves fall, single tiles remain unchanneled, and other generally odd behavior occurs. | ||||
| Additional Information | This was found in version 51.04, but it isn't on the version list yet. | ||||

There's an ancient article on the wiki on how to prevent this behavior, but I don't see a bug report for it, and it says this behavior was fixed. This doesn't seem like intended behavior, and I didn't find another open ticket for this issue, so I'm creating a new report. https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/40d:How_do_I_stop_miners_from_falling_in_channels_as_they_dig_them |
