[176.38c] Miner canceled carve ramp to drink...while pau
« on: March 04, 2008, 11:24:00 pm »

I am building a moat. I have the miner carve a down ramp on the outside part of the moat to dig an underground tunnel to the water source.  I designate the ramp and unpause, then a moment later remembered that I can designate the tunnel to be dug without having to wait for the ramp to be built so I go back to designate the tunnel.

The tunnel is being dug right next to the ramp and I see the ramp flashing yellow telling me that a miner is on his way to dig it.  I start designating the tunnel then suddenly out of nowhere and with an empty announcements log I get "Kost Amecaspa, Miner cancels Carve Ramp:Getting something to drink."  And the ramp is no longer flashing yellow.  This was while paused and before pausing there were no new messages.

The game is modded but I assume that it isn't related to modding. No utilities were used.(I don't even have any installed on this computer)

Unfortunately, I would only have a save from after it happened because it was pretty early in, and so far I have been unable to reproduce it. But I am positive it happened.  The ramp tile was still within view when it stopped blinking.  If it helps anything I have two miners, they were both idle when the ramp was first designated, and about 15 tiles from the ramp.

EDIT:I must of missed it when I searched. Nevermind then.

This has been reported.  Designating mining squares while paused causes lots of things to happen:  parties continue, dwarves gain experience, etc.
