Merchant Bug
« on: April 08, 2008, 08:24:00 pm »

Alright, so the caravan comes, right? All dwarven and autumny and such. And the liason goes off to Mister Expedition Leader, and the several wagons make their way to the trade depot. And then they begin to unload their goods. And then they leave. And they leave everything they brought right there, in a neat pile. ... Why? They just kind of up and left. No announcements saying they left. I wasn't really paying attention to the liason, but he never said anything. But yeah, they left it there. I never was able to get into the 'Trade' screen. Immediate transition. "You're kind of a jerk. Leave us be, we're unloading." to unexplained leaving. Jerks. Well... Wealthy jerks. Just a gigantic pile of stuff. Right there. Why?

The voodoo that I do in this case is run down children with a helicopter, swinging away at them with a gigantic ball menacing with spikes of magnetite.
