Burial seems to be a bit bugged currently. For my dwarves it a) sometimes takes ages to discover dead dwarves, even when I tell them to deconstruct the bed they are rotting on. Then b) it takes ages until they actually carry the body to a coffin. Maybe a new bug? In 34.01 and 34.02 I never really had this problem, but now in 34.05 burial keeps dragging on really often.

When you make build a coffin make sure used for burial is toggled on.

You also need to enable burying citizens in the coffin.

For my scenario all those have been done as shown within the previous screenshots.  My dwarves have burried other dead with no problem, but this one dwarf is ignored.  I can still drag him around to stockpiles, but my dwarves refuse to bury him.  I built him a memorial slab to avoid ghost problems.


Do the ghosts only haunt/annoy other dwarves...  or would they also harrass goblins and kobolds??

I have almost 20 goblin crossbowmen camping next to a dead merchant... will the ghost do anything to the goblins?
