| Summary | 0008074: Submerged dwarves refuse to escape water | ||||
| Description | Dwarves that end up submerged in water (due to digging into the side of a water body, possibly in other circumstances) refuse to escape and will simply stand there and drown rather than using obvious escape routes. They won't even accept jobs/designations that would move them to safety. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Dig a tunnel into the side of a body of water. Dwarf will be submerged and stand there until s/he drowns. | ||||
| Tags | drowning, idiot, water | ||||

|
|
Note: This happens when they dig in horizontally and would need to move horizontally to escape. |

|
Hm, I wonder if this is related to the pathing issues that FBs have when they get into water. |
|
|
Testing back in 0.34.11 found that dwarves will path up to 20 tiles through water to a dry tile to escape. If the "obvious escape route" is further than 20 tiles away after flooding, they will not move. What was your situation like? http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=116764.0 |

This may be related to how merchants path through water, and how they also refuse to path back out once they're in, even if the shore is a single tile away. |

UristDaVinci: Paths as short as three or four tiles were still ignored. Talvieno: Sounds like it's the same basic bug surfacing in different circumstances. |
