Summary0002644: Reaction jobs created via manager keep getting re-issued after completion
DescriptionSome kinds of smelter jobs don't decrement when queued via the manager. So far I have found that "Make brass bars (use ore)", and both Make coke orders will never decrement, that is to say, never finish. The smelter will continue to be populated with new jobs forever. Jobs in the smelter finish individually normally, but since the job still exists in the manager the work order is never resolved.
Steps To Reproducej, m, q, make coke from bituminous coal (or lignite) (or make brass)
wait for job to finish at smelter
check manager to see that job did not decrement
Additional InformationEven a single job queued via manager is enough to create the forever cycle of smelter work. I don't know the extent of the problem.

This is on a new install of 31.10, to which I applied Phoebus' tileset.

Addendum: Tried with a totally vanilla install of 31.10 and the behavior is the same.

Is it happening to magma smelters or normal smelters or both?

I have been seeing this with normal smelters, first with coal, then with pig iron. Frustrating.

seems to affect the creation of potash as well

When I made the report I only had regular smelters to work with. I haven't tried with magma smelters yet.

Confirm this for normal Smelter, had 9 Lignite in Manager Menu and ended up with 30 Bars and still 9/9 jobs left.

What about magma smelters? We should narrow it down and see if its specific to normal smelters or magma smelters, or both.

well it affects the kiln too... so might be all furnaces...

Is it other workshops as well, such as a forge or mason workshop? Or only furnaces?

@Liebenow: Maybe, but there are two kiln types, normal and magma. So we need to narrow them down.

Also affects pearlash in a normal kiln.

It does not however affect charcoal made in a wood furnace.

I've seen this with soap (in the Soap Maker's Workshop) and with smelting bars of metal (in the [non-magma] Smelter).

It seems like it only affects certain quantities--I think I ordered 30 steel and it repeated indefinitely, but an order of 10 steel completed as normal.
On a side note, I now have a massive amount of coke.

I think I've seen this problem too.

I have the same problem; my 'smelt bituminous coal (30)' jobs drain my fortress of bituminous coal, leaving hundreds of bars of coke, and continuing to generate 'cannot smelt bituminous coal: needs bituminous coal' (or something to that effect). Clearing the manager job and the workshop jobs seems to work. Haven't tried just clearing the manager job and seeing if the jobs drain properly, since they usually get cancelled instead at that point.

Stock .10 install, fueled (not magma) smelters...

Yeah, I have an 0.31.10 fort where some orders of 30x"Make coke from bituminous coal", 20x"Make pig iron bars" and 20x"Make steel bars" manager orders are never being decremented by job completions at my magma smelters, and are re-queuing jobs indefinitely.
Re: Urist McFrob's wondering whether the jobs drain properly when the manager is cleared, the jobs themselves seem to behave perfectly normally, the problem is that the manager keeps adding more of them.
Orders I've been running recently in this fort that DID get completed as normal: 30x"Construct wooden Bin", 30x"Smelt garnierite" at magma smelters, and 20x"Forge steel x" for x in (battle axe, shield, leggings, mail shirt, gauntlets, high boots, helm) at magma forges.

I don't have that bug on Magma forges.
I use the manager all the time, without problem.

This should be fixed up for 0.31.11.
