Summary0000863: Items that are tasked when fortress is abandoned are still tasked (invisibly) on reclaim, and other reclaim oddities
DescriptionBefore my old fortress collapsed, I have planned a huge building project that used hundreds of stone. I never got to finish it, though.

When I reclaimed, the stones still seem to be marked as being used. I can't use them for anything (they don't show up in the building materials menu), even if I try to build wall on top of them... there is a large group of stones on the ground, but when I build on top of it, the nearest material is listed as 26 squares away.

Worse still, the stones block any construction (as per normal when "being used").
Tagsitem, reclaim

I'm having the same problem with mechanisms. I had traps set to be built when I abandoned. Mechanisms were scattered across the map, however none show up on the stocks screen or when building a trap. I haven't tried building on top of them yet to see if they block building, but it is breaking some of the functionality of reclaim.

This was in the .3 version.

I got this now too. I was making a stone wall before I got wiped out, and after reclaim those stones can't be used for anything. If I mark them for dumping, nobody dumps them.

Seems like this is not only an issue of building materials. I have several other items, like a mule corpse or a bow, that can't be touched. Probably anything that was marked as "being used" before the fall of the fortress doesn't work.

I also have lots of ammunition and equipment nobody would touch... and that the arsenal dwarf keeps ignoring. I suppose it's the same reclaim bug. Probably the items that were assigned before the abandonment can't be used now.

This is a very old bug. Not surprising that it's still around.

I've recently gotten this as well, is there any workaround for editing your save to fix this one? I really don't want to have to scrap an entire 2 7 level aquaduct system because a stray stone is sitting in a key position that requires a wall for the whole system to work. Confirmed in version 0.31.05.

The only way I know of to untask the items is to shove them around with flowing water, or melt them with magma.

Really? That puts a huge roadblock on my plans for a mega project. :\

Oh well, tough it out and build a few 100 pumps I guess.

I have this bug too. When my fortress fell, there was one dwarf still there who went insane. Apparantly he destroyed the depot, because when I reclaimed, I found 3 dolomite sitting where the depot was supposed to be, and nobody will touch those 3 dolomite! Which is annoying, since I'll have to change the whole shape of the floodable depot room to accomodate another one. Then there's the miscellaneous items in my barracks area blocking construction of furniture. Grr! Nothing's forbidden, everything's claimed, nothing's outside, nothing's TSK'd. And nothing's getting picked up.

For the record, the current version of DFHack includes a tool "dfcleartask" (written by me) which works around this bug by untasking every item in the fortress.

The basic items-being-locked-up on reclaim bug is handled for 0.31.17, but I don't think that resolves any of the (former) child issues, so I've moved them over to related.
