Fisherdwarf won't build Fishery
« on: November 01, 2006, 03:05:00 am »

I've made a new fortress twice this build, and each time I made a fisherdwarf with novice fish cleaning. Each time I plan a Fishery somewhere in the cave, the fisherdwarf will not take the time to go build it. I have to go into his labor list and deselect fishing before he'll go build it. Afterwards, I turn fishing back on, and he has no problem operating the fishery when I want him to.

It's because fishing is queried extremely often compared to other jobs, I think.  As a result, your fisherdwarf is almost always busy fishing when the fishery-building job tries to get someone to work on it.
