floodgate spam
« on: September 02, 2006, 12:48:00 am »

i just had 4 dwarves wander into a room with a door+floodgate when the lever for the gate was "accidently" pulled". One dwarf managed to swim to freedom due to improper channel placement, two others drowned right in the channel a space from freedom, but one managed to die right in the floodgate hex. Not only is his corpse keeping the gate blocked (unlike the others which just wash away, but i am getting a torrent of messages from dwarves that are attempting to grab his clothes. Is there any way to resolve this problem?

Items in filled channels cause nasty problems like this right now.  I don't think there's anything you can do, because it probably won't let you bridge the channel over the items since they'll be in the way.
