| Summary | 0013295: Dwarves won't path into "farmed" obsidian | ||||
| Description | Flooded a chamber with Magma. Flooded with water, to create obsidian. Entered the chamber with Channel orders. Once the dwarves wind up on the lower Z-level, they will not climb back up. Not to Channel, not to exit. Further, even if I mine in from the save Z-level with Mine command, they won't mine more than 1 block deep from the doors. I get an error that they can't find path, dig order canceled. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | The block description went away, I believe this was "Steps to Reproduce:" Flood a chamber with Magma, with an available entry via magma-safe door Flood level above with water, and allow to drain away, leaving obsidian Assign a Dig/Mine order for the newly created Magma. It will not mine more than one block into the room. Alternately, channel from above, similar issue with pathing. Have replicated now on 3 different worldgens. | ||||
| Additional Information | Running on Win11 Pro ARM, in Parallels on a MacBook Pro. Previously had no issue "obsidian farming" via this same method. | ||||
