| Summary | 0009497: Pets with CAN_LEARN and PACK_ANIMAL do not drop their items when hauled | ||||
| Description | To be exact, one of my musclebeasts from my Fortbent mod will get a job to haul (for example) a log, take the log to the stockpile, fail to drop it and simply idle in a meeting area until they get a new hauling job, at which point they will drop what they're carrying and grab the new item. They won't drop it for any other job, such as updating stockpile records. I'm being as specific as possible there, trying to include everything I figure could be causing the problem; I haven't heard any problem with troglodytes hauling, and AFAIK there aren't any vanilla animals with both CAN_LEARN and PACK_ANIMAL, so that's the most likely candidate for the problem. It could be other things, but that particular combination of tokens stood out to me as the most likely causing the problem, especially since pack animals haul items that are carried in anyway. Other tokens that may be of note from that creature: [ADOPTS_OWNER]: Not likely to cause anything, there for completion. [MEANDERER]: movement could cause problems with hauling, but they don't have problems on the way to grabbing the item and dropping it. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Mod in a creature with both CAN_LEARN and PACK_ANIMAL. 2. Let it haul some stuff. | ||||
| Additional Information | If this turns out to be something particularly pernicious, obviously it only comes up with modding so I could just remove PACK_ANIMAL from this particular creature (since having a pet bookkeeper and a pet manager is something I won't give up so easily) and include a blurb on the wiki describing the problem. | ||||
