[40d12] Dwarves have wood, but won't use it.
« on: August 23, 2009, 11:42:28 pm »

Save: http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=1373

I've got a dozen logs or so in my stockpile, according to the Stocks screen.  But my dwarves won't cut the trees that have been designated (my woodcutters stand around with No Job), and my woodworkers cancel any queued "Make wooden [thing]" jobs due to lack of wood logs.  New fortress, less than a year old, and with a freshly-generated world.

Posting before I check the save: are they forbidden and/or inaccessible?

Not forbidden, even used mass-reclaim designation to be sure.  The wood stocks are in with the other stockpiles, and the others were accessible.  Loaded a save from the previous season, and it's working fine.  No major structural changes were made since the previous season, so pathing shouldn't have changed much.

I built a carpenter's shop from one of the logs in the stockpile and that worked fine.  However, in the save you posted, there doesn't appear to be any route to the surface.

Odd.  There should still be three ramp tiles on each corner of the main stairwell.

On the level with the stockpiles and all the sand?  I'm seeing Chestnut Up/Down Stairs.  Above them on the surface level, it's just a 5x5 empty space.

Ah.  My mistake.  Looks like the last expansion tagged the walls supporting my exit ramps.
