(Dwarfy McDwarf), Recruit cancels (Do Something in Barra
« on: March 03, 2008, 04:59:00 pm »

I'm getting constantly spammed by messages from my soldiers saying that they can't do something - typically "Sleep" or "Spar In Barracks" - because of "dangerous terrain". I can't figure out what might be causing this; the barracks has a perfectly flat and level floor and there's nothing unusual going on nearby apart from a donkey that is for some reason standing in the middle of it. Anyone have ideas as to what could be happening here?

Are the troops in the barracks because their only path to the barracks might be through dangerous terrain. ie, a rabid squirel is standing infront of the door.

Dangerous terrain should only pop up if there's water or magma in the way... or there's a cave-in. Perhaps look around for those?

Whenever I see this message there's usually a fair bit of blood on the ground, so I thought that might somehow be connected.  Animals underfoot may also be to blame.

It's blood.

I've noticed the same thing. Some blood on the ground, but it definitely wasn't a hostile NPC, water, magma, or a cave-in.
