Dwarves Won't Dump Anything
« on: May 15, 2016, 09:17:16 pm »
I can't get my dwarves to dump anything. I have dump activity zones set out, I've marked stuff to be dumped, but they don't dump anything. Has anyone else encountered this? How do I solve it?

Is the stuff to be dumped above ground?  If so it's a setting in orders.

Does it share the orders for refuse?

Yes. Notably, this means they won't dump objects that are outside unless you o-r-o.

Are the items marked for dumping and forbidden? They won't dump forbidden things.

Do you have any Idlers? I think the priority for dumping is quite low.

As indicated above, dumping is a refuse hauling task, so refuse hauling would have to be enabled on the haulers as well.
