[40d] Caravan won't leave
« on: September 26, 2009, 09:09:56 pm »

I have seen this bug reported somewhere, but I figured out why it happens. I had a dwarf caravan stay for years and years, like maybe 20 years, seemingly bugged. Anyway, the reason they were stuck was because in some far corner of the map one of the merchants was wounded such that he couldn't move, but still alive. I didn't notice him. Finally, after all those years, a goblin ambush party came across him and killed him. Then all the merchants left again! Yay! hopefully I'll get caravans again.

Hmm.  I guess they should be smart enough to go pick him up if he can't move.
