Broker Refuses to trade stuff.
« on: January 20, 2008, 01:20:00 am »
The dwarven caravan came for my firsy year, and i took all the jobs off my Trade Liason, but he just kinda chilled until they left. Now i am screwed. Perhaps trading should be top priority for dorfs.

You can select the option at the trade depot "all dwarves can trade" instead of the default "only broker can trade". You can then have anybody go trade at the depot this way if your broker is too busy or don't want to go there for any reason.

And I can guess the reason he was "just chilling" is he was just "in break". Pretty common problem with about any dwarves, especially if you have a booze shortage.

Well, what was he doing?  Did it say "On Break", "No Job", or something else?
