Summary0000972: Diplomat/liaison arrives, immediately dies of old age (and other old age issues)
DescriptionRecently got the human diplomat. Or rather, found that the human diplomat's corpse had been delivered at my map's edge.
Peeked into legends. Cause of death most likely old age, as the law-giver was 108 years old upon arrival.

Can't really call this one a bug, and liasons are replaced now, so I assume the same are for diplomats.
Additional InformationJust hope the humans don't think *I* did it.
Tags0.31.01, diplomat, trade

I had the same with dwarven liason in my fortress.
I got the announcement that the liason came etc. Haven't even unpaused and he was already dead at the map edge.
In legends it said he died from old age in my site, he was 159.

Toady ( http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=84398.msg2764517#msg2764517 ) : "If I remember, I've put in a check were near/post death people don't come to the fort anymore, but that doesn't attack the core problem."

So it should not be closed without confirmation from Toady that bug was really fixed.

I have only seen reports of this happening in dwarf mode, and I just had a human warlord die from old age just after ambushing me in adventure mode. So it's not diplomacy-trading only.

Given the world is receiving a rewrite on historical figure birth/death/succession, this needs to be checked for resolution in the next version.

This should be fixed already...we will never know until it happens, as the mechanic was rewritten.
