I just noticed that 2 of my dwarves, who aren't a miner, have their mining labour turned on. I never turned that on, I only have 4 dedicated miners, and no migrants arrived with any mining skill.

Is there some new bug that automatically turns on mining skill, or has my cat with a keyboard-walking fetish become an adept DF player?

[khearn]

I haven't noticed this in my games. I think I would have if it had happened. But I haven't been playing as much as I'd like to, so I'm a small sample size.

shoot i had too many idlers so i made a bunch of picks and formed the Dwarven Mountaintop Removal Team. However, this was intentional.

Sometimes migrants arrived with certain labors enabled even though they have no skill in that labor.

You can disable this in the init options.

Novice miners maybe?

[martinuzz]

nope, I caught them in the act of digging, so they're still just dabbling. I disabled their mining skills fast, as it interferes with their military uniforms. Said dwarves were among my older population, both military. They never arrived with mining skills. I suspect my cat, although the odds are pretty low it would select 2 seperate dwarves via the <v> menu, activate mining on both of them, and do nothing else except that.
