Job Cancellation "bug"
« on: February 11, 2007, 12:44:00 pm »

This one is not so much a bug as something that gives away information you cannot know.

Situation:
Miners cancel dig job for "open" tiles that they cannot reach.  This is normal behaviour.  The problem is that they cancelled tiles that are open to the magma river that I have yet to actually dig to.  Thus giving me a perfect image of the magma river banks in that area.

I thought we had worked all those out, but I guess I'm remember the stockpile exploits that were similar.  I'll check it out.

I can confirm this with the latest build.  It makes finding the magma river too easy.  :D
