Farmer not making farm...
« on: April 01, 2010, 11:58:07 pm »
Ok, so the new version comes out...while I'm on vacation. Mercifully, abysmal traffic fails to keep me away from home, and I install the new version long after everybody else has.

The problem is that my farmer isn't making a farm plot. It is not the problem of not having mud (already taken care of, thank you Toady for the buckets!), it is just that he isn't doing it.

(The farmer is actually a she, but all dwarves are called 'he', because gender with them is about as important as relations with elves [i.e. worry about it only when it comes up])

The farmer in question apparently has poor focus, does this have anything to do with it?

If one sees such a being; run away, unless you like the idea of joining their ranks.

Make sure that they havent suspended it...

If they haven't try suspending it then unsuspending it, that might wake him her up.

Hang on, looks like I just forgot to build stairs into the farm area. (Let me tell you, not being able to dig downstairs a floor up from below is not a good thing)
