[40d] 'Could Not Find Path' Spam
« on: December 15, 2008, 05:59:52 pm »

This is an annoying problem I just encountered:

I have a food stockpile set on the inside in a dug-out area (there are a few stones lying around, they occupy the same space as the stockpile, I designated them for dumping into a small pool some distance away from the fortress), my dwarves seem to be deciding between dumping the stones and placing food barrels in the stockpile, and, being dwarves, somehow managed to NOT do both.

Currently, all of them are spamming 'Urist McIndecisive cancels Dump Item/Store Item in Stockpile: Could Not Find Path'. About half the stockpile is completely clear, the rest is occupied by stone. There is also one barrel of booze that somehow found its way there, could that be what's causing it?

Is the stockpile a regular rectangle shape?  I'm not sure if it's still there, but there were oddities with a wall being in the center tile if I remember, though I might be thinking of something else.  Have them ever managed to use the stockpile?
