Floating items
« on: January 31, 2007, 11:23:00 am »

Screenshot:

 :D  But the job is not cancelled even though the mechanism is listed as inaccessable in the Trade Depot list (along with the seed bag hovering over the center of the chasm).

I can't build a bridge over the chasm there because I get an "item blocking site" suspension, I'm guessing because the architect wants to remove the mechanisms and possibly the bag.  Even after a save/load, the stuff is still hovering.  If anything, I'd settle for them falling into the chasm, just so I can build over those squares again.

yes, this just happened to me as well. A dwarf threw a tantrum and broke a bridge and dropped himself and a peasant into the chasm. Now there are some coins and silk thread just floating there. I do not know if the peasant was dragging any of those, or if they were all dropped when I drafted everybody

Got another instance of this.  Not entirely sure what caused it, but I now have a piece of marble floating just off the shore of the cave river RIGHT where I want my 4 tile wide main hall bridge to be.  :(
