Are there any mods, even with DFHack, that fix the problem with fort members climbing into trees and forgetting how to climb back down?

[jecowa]

I don't know much about modding, but I would guess that it's not possible for a mod to teach dwarves to climb down or jump off from trees. Though, I wonder if there'd be anything wrong with removing a dwarf's ability to climb.

DFHack does things like let enemies DIG into your fortress so I don't see why a small pathing fix would be out of the question. The issue was that I was trying to make a custom entity that has high default climbing and they get all stuck in trees ten minutes into the game. If I can't fix it I won't bother with that entity for a while.

You could add [CANNOT_CLIMB] to the dwarf creature in the creature_standard.txt document in the RAW folder. That would stop dwarves from climbing altogether.

Do you think this would have a benificial effect on pathfinding?

Hmm, it might. Dwarves will sometimes climb over walls and things so it is possible that the pathfinding algorithm is taking climbing into account. I don't know how much of a boost you would get though. Probably not much, but I suppose every little bit helps.
