Possible bug with the trade
« on: August 27, 2014, 04:06:47 pm »

Hi all!

This is the behavior that I saw recently in my fortress:

- Broker Mosus was stricken by melancholy



- I chose another dwarf (Mag) for this position and request him at the trade depot when the caravan arrives
- As a result, Mosus is standing in the trade depot and waiting for the trade, despite that Mag is considered as a broker in the trade depot and nobles menu





Should I consider this as a bug and report it?

Thanks in advance.

Not a bug. First, Mosus Ezumilid went insane, and Mosus Likotamal is at the depot. Second, in the depot menu, there is the option: "b: Anyone may trade"
If you push b, it should change to "Only broker may trade", and Mosus should stop trading, and Mag will take over.

It is to a bug! Insane dwarves shouldn't be able to do anything AFAIK.

yeah im with milo, melancholy dwarves shouldn't do anything except kill themselves.  (insanity might be right that you can fix it by setting to broker only)

I am quite looking forward to the next 20 or 30 years or so of developmental madness

What insane dwarf is doing anything? 'Mosus' Ezumilid, Gem Cutter, went insane. 'Mosus' Likotamal, Stonecrafter, showed up at the trade depot.

Have them killed. Nothing solves a problem quite as effectively as simply having it killed.

Added additional emphasis since people aren't seeing it.

Communication seems to be an issue today!

Come on down to Crazy Mozul's.  Our prices are barking mad!

All I'm going to say.  I have enough derping for one day.
