Summary0006791: No path for wagons, dwarves getting stuck
DescriptionI have reclaimed an existing fortress. It was built with a walled gate, a trade depot, and a hole to the underground, as well as a road leading toward the edge of the map.
(1)The depot had no wagon access, even though there were 3 clear tiles for the wagon to pass through. (Also, neither the depot nor the edge had any type of access, in general).

(2)For some strange reason, one of my cats managed to fall (I think? he went missing) and die in the actual underground part of the fort. Later, a couple of dwarves climbed down there (I have no idea why), and got stuck there. Trying to get them up via military and such didn't work, apparently they have no path backup, although there is supposed to be slopes leading all the way up.
They starting starving, so they tried hunting for vermin, failed to find a path for them, and in the end started to tantrum.

For (1), the depot access screen doesn't show anything as accessible if your depot is forbidden. All buildings are forbidden when you reclaim a fortress. If you unforbid the depot, the access screen will start working again.

For (2)... can you provide a save?

This should really be two separate bug reports, I feel...

Technically, it should be two reports, but since there is no save to get to the particulars and there have been save compat breaks, I'm going to assume no. 2 was taken care of by the general nature of climbing being toned down in successive releases since 40.01, and no. 1 was as thewonderidiot described.

If either of these turn out not to be the case, we can reopen the report. Please PM a manager on the forums for this.
