| Summary | 0007929: Dwarves Randomly Idling | ||||
| Description | My dwarves are randoly idling. I embarked, built a few things (from craftsdwarfs wkshop, carpenters wkshop, masons wkshop) and when I found zinc in the ground and burnt 3 charcoal and dug a channel, designated it as a pond to have my dwarves fill the hole with water - my dwarves started not taking on new jobs. They weren't eating, sleeping or on break - they just said 'No Job' and stood in the meeting area without taking on new jobs. I had a carpenter not building walls, a metalsmith not making cages and a farmer not harvesting his plump helmets. I restarted my game and they all took on their jobs. This was very strange. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | ...designate a pond and have the job finish? | ||||
| Additional Information | I embarked underneath a tree in its roots and had to make the square/root my miner was standing on/in to be mined out and the miner to dig a stairwell back up to the surface and then channel out on and around the caravan to free my dwarves. | ||||

Are you sure hey have their labours enabled? |
|
|
My guess is that either 1) the channels cut off the area or 2) they're stuck in a burrow. If neither of those explains it, please upload a save to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ and post the link here. |
|
|
None of those do. Also, sorry it's named region1, haha. http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=9351 @edmus: Yeah, and they picked up their jobs right after I restarted the game. |
|
|
Okay, so the save won't demonstrate the problem? |
|
|
I believe not |
|
|
Okay -- if you do manage to get a save that demonstrates the problem, please upload that one. |

There is often a delay before some types of jobs are assigned. How long did you wait? |
