Summary	0007912: designation cancellations
Description	First, miners digging the same pit out causes the message 'UNIT_NAME cancells dig channel: dangerous terrain' -or something similar. At any rate, the channel is still designated so it wouldn't be an issue if it weren't spammed in the chat- and if the miner in question didn't stop moving until either hunger or thirst drags him/her away from the job. Second, having children causes jobs to be cancelled or suspended while the dwarf seeks out the child. It would be more prudent for the dwarf to stop doing the job but to leave it as is so jobs don't need to be re-created over and over again. Third, sometimes dwarfs will not remove objects in the place of buildings to be built or objects to be constructed, suspending the task instead. This always happens if an item on the site is designated for dumping or forbidden, but frequently happens regardless.

~~user6~~ 2014-08-08 14:11 ~0028614	Buggy aspects of the first issue are covered at 0007825. Some cancellation spam is expected if the area is filling with water. The second issue is covered by 0000727. For the third issue, if the items are marked TSK, it's normal. If not, it's 0001027.
