Summary | 0008777: Dwarf cancels hauling of building materials when crossing channeled area - "dangerous terrain" | ||||
Description | I just started a new embark and only channeled one square right beside my main staircase. One of my other dwarves was hauling building materials to erect a masonry and cancelled the job when encountering the channeled tile. There is still a ramp, no water in the hole and no animals anywhere close. One thing that might be worth mentioning: there is still snow on the ground. I can upload a save if needed but it should be easy to replicate. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce | 1) channel one square in snow 2) designate to build a workshop, so that the pathing goes to it goes over the channeled square 3) "dangerous area" alert interrupts the job | ||||
Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Although it says 'dangerous terrain' what the cancel message actually means is that the chosen route, that was previously possible, has become impossible. It doesn't matter that a new route is just a tile to the left. This is most often seen when water floods a tile, or lava, or (as you've just seen) a tile is channelled. Unless your fortress is actually drowning in water / lava the messages can usually be pretty much ignored. |
|
If I'm reading the report correctly, the tile is being channeled before the build job is created, so that can't be the reason. Also, ignoring the announcements isn't a solution, since they announce the cancellation of the job in question. |
|
I'm unable to reproduce this (underground, at least). Afghani84, are you sure that the channel was completed before the build job was created? |
|
@lethosor When you get a message of 'cancelling hauling' that particular job is stopped, but it is almost immediately added back into the queue as a new job. Net effect: Not much. |
|
@ptb_ptb that might be the case for regular hauling jobs. but if the dwarf is hauling building material to erect a workshop the entire process is suspended and you have to manually reverse it @lethosor it turns out that I just get the error when tiles are channeled AFTER the building job was taken up. so I guess that bug is already known. If so, sorry for the double post! |
