furniture stockpiles not being used
« on: October 05, 2011, 04:35:54 pm »

I noticed that I had quite a bit of furniture in workshops that wasn't being moved to any of the furniture stockpiles.  I've tried tearing down one of the shops and rebuilding, and I've tried removing all the furniture stockpiles and rebuilding those too.  However, no dwarf has even lifted a finger to move any furniture into the new pile.

I tried searching the forum for a similar occurrence, but didn't see anything.

I recently decided to give version 31.25 a try.  I can't put my finger on exactly when this started, but I'd hate to abandon my 1st game back because of this.  However, things are essentially unplayable in the long run if I can't organize furniture items.  Is there anything I can do to get furniture moving again?

I've since tried dumping all my furniture and reclaiming it and using custom stockpiles set to accept furniture.  The little bearded guys just don't seem to recognize that there is any work to be done moving furniture.

WAIT - I just found it!  I had accidently turned off Dwarves gather furniture in the standing order. :) :)

Hmm. Might be the solution for my "Dorfs don't use Horn/Ivory/Shell stockpile" problem.
