The cavern got me
« on: April 01, 2018, 12:32:37 am »

So I chopped down a couple trees in a cavern and somehow 6 of my dwarves suddenly got stuck on the side of a wall, which turned into 1 fps as they couldn't find their way anywhere.  I am hoping some ramp/mining jobs I tossed near them will save them their fate (and me from mine).

Dwarf Hack ftw.  Used the gui/teleport command to move the stuck dwarves a couple squares over onto flat ground, back up into the 40's

designate and immediately suspend walls when you don't want them go stand on the wrong side (seems to always be north/west that causes the troubles) this seems to work unless you're trying to build on a diagonal.
