| Summary | 0007964: traders do not leave map | ||||
| Description | After several Elven Caravans, two elves and their horses decided to stay in the Depot area for 2 years before I decided to slay them. A Dwarven Caravan also left behind all of its soldiers on the edge of the map for a few months. I killed them too. | ||||

Does [D] show a valid path from your depot to the edge of the map? Were the merchants scared by animals? Do you have a save demonstrating the problem? |
|
|
It did. I have the save, but all the stragglers are dead. If it is still useful, I will upload it. |

I have a save with an elf merchant who lies in place unmoving and refuses to leave the map. All of the elf caravan's trade goods are still in the depot. Inciting incident: This particular merchant was bitten by, and subsequently became, a werearmadillo and has been terrorizing incoming migrants all year. http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=9413 Edit: A couple years later, the presence of the werearmadillo elf merchant on the map has not interfered with the human or dwarven caravans at all, but seems to have blocked any further elven caravans from arriving. |

I may have had the same issue. I had a dwarf caravan leave behind a merchant, a marksdwarf, and a water buffalo bearing goods. Their path to my depot crossed a drained pond. These three remained stuck on a couple of ramps. Eventually the pond started to refill from rain, when the pond level was at 3/4, the merchant and buffalo went berserk and the marksdwarf killed them. The pond is now back to 7, the marksdwarf is still on his ramp, still alive, and still not insane. |

I had a similar issue. After being bypassed by wagons the remaining merchants arrived at my fortress. There was some problem with them packing up, they left stuff on my depot maybe because of all the shitty furniture I gave them. Then, a merchant got himself stuck on a tree: this (I think) caused the other dwarves from the civ to stay in the map mostly without moving (I am not sure of what caused what). Tried to "free" the merchant by cutting the tree, he died. This did not make the others leave. The following year I recieved no immigrants or traders from other civs. I have finally put an end today. One axedwarf that accompanied them became a diplomat, so next autumn we will see how things turn out. EDIT: the save should be from before the tree accident also, while other civs were present as neighbours on embark, hitting C doesn't have them show up. This could be because the depot was occupied and I didn't get to meet them, still, something that could be important. If another save could speed the process up: http://www.mediafire.com/download/tgs9qgqsiqrovrk/save+for+toady.zip |

DF 0.40.13 Dwarf caravans have got stuck at the exit - not wanting go go over the bridge through the 3-wide gap in the wall? http://imagr.eu/up/547afc0bd64dc_stuck.png Save file: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=10151 Update: http://imagr.eu/up/547afeaa2f0af_stuck2.png Removing one wall tile gave them enough space to turn around and exit. I guess this is a bug with the 'D' access check not being accurate? It did say 'depot accessible' even before I removed the wall. |

Got a new instance of something like this. 1. Depot was not blocked from map edge by anything. 2. Merchant was fighting something at one point. 3. When I deconstructed the trade depot (in mid-Winter) the merchants with pack animals left, but two wagons remain. Looking at the fighting reports, it was a bobcat. http://imagr.eu/up/54ba563c2761c_bobcat.png I'm uploading a seasonal backup save from the start of Winter (before I deconstructed the trade depot). Save file: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=10459 [EDIT] Huh, in spring all the stranded merchants and guards turned into barons! |

Probably a similar issue i just encountered: 1. Dwarven caravan underground inside my fortress is packing up the wares to leave 2. I designate Trolls and Troglodytes to be brought into a cage, they are carried past the Depot 3. Caravan guards kill the Trolls and Troglodytes, merchants stop packing up their wares and do nothing 4. I deconstruct the trade depot, the wares left unpacked remain on the floor, claimed by me and the caravan leaves edit: this was in version 40.24 |

Same thing happened to me in 0.40.24: Hill titan came and attacked merchants, before I could deal with him. Merchants killed titan and weren't leaving for more than a year until I deconstructed depot. Similar thing happened again in 0.42.02: Merchants got distracted by wild animals while they were packing, and now they won't leave. And when elven caravan came next year, 3 of them suddenly became barons. Here's save for 0.42: http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=11388 |

I just ran into this, but I think I know what caused it to me. I offered so many goods that it might have been too heavy for their wagons. Perhaps there's no weight restriction check on offering? I have paved roads to all four edges of the map. Depot access is clear. Deconstructing the depot causes them to leave along with unpacked goods that get left behind. |
