| Summary | 0008987: Dwarves continue to use stepladders to attempt picking fruit after zone removed and trees cut down | ||||
| Description | At the start of an embark, I set up one of these newfangled fruit-picking zones, mostly just to try the thing out. After a while, however, I was ready to start creating a "greenhouse" that was more protected, so I deleted the zone that was sitting over the area I was walling in and preparing to channel. My plant gatherer dwarves, however, were having none of that, and steadfastly continued to bring stepladders into the area I had cordoned off, and trying to climb stepladders to pick fruit from trees I had already chopped down. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=10917 - Autumnal seasonal save of my first year in the fort where I noticed this behavior. What seems to trigger the behavior, however, is deleting the zone before deactivating or removing the fruit-picking behavior. | ||||
| Additional Information | I was forced for a while to just plain forbid the stepladders to get the dwarves to step down from them, and/or disable plant gathering. I only managed to correct this behavior for good by designating a new area for fruit picking, and then disabling the fruit-picking action in the zone options, THEN deleting the zone. Simply deleting the zone, itself, resulted in the continued attempts at picking fruit from non-existent trees. | ||||

I can verify this issue in my game. |

This bug is still present in .42.03. |

Haven't tested with ladders in v53.08, but they seem to ignore the toggled settings completely. I set it to collect dropped fruit only. They visit every single tile (even empty), wasting time and performing unwanted gathering on shrub tiles with no fallen fruit on them. The toggle options reset each time you suspend the zone. |
