Tags	No tags attached.

~~user6~~ 2010-04-30 11:41 ~0005755	Are the traps forbidden? 't' over them to view their components -- if any of the components are forbidden, the trap is forbidden, and they won't reload it.

matakuka 2010-04-30 12:18 reporter ~0005760	Also, the new stone used is not always the one used in the previous loading, so stone fall traps may accumulate, err, "fall-out"

The lighter one means it's been reloaded with another stone. Arguably the stone that was just dropped should be the closest one, and thus the one used for the reload. Might want to check into that even if the traps are being reloaded correctly. My traps get reloaded correctly on 0.31.03, so if they're not getting loaded it's some kind of environmental problem.

Its possible for heavily used stonefall traps to have huge piles of stones. Each time its loaded, fires, and then a new stone is hauled to reload it rather than the new stone. It depends on where your meeting zone is compared to where stones are and where your traps are. Press T and view the trap. There should be a stone and a mechanism in the trap. Is there one?

~~user6~~ 2010-05-01 12:11 ~0005834	sombrenote, without answers to the questions above, this report will go in the "unable to reproduce" pile.

sombrenote 2010-05-01 12:41 reporter ~0005845	Not Forbidden or Dumped. The Traps are white, which I means that they have been loaded. The confusing part is the dwarves did not use the rock that was setting on the trap at first. So I must have been confused because I would expect them to use the closest stone. Thank you for your help guys.

~~user6~~ 2010-05-01 13:27 ~0005850	Ah, okay, glad there's nothing too weird going on. It's probable that the dwarves that got assigned the reloading job just picked up a rock that was close to themselves at the time.
