[0.31.01] They refuse to dig.
« on: April 04, 2010, 09:38:05 pm »

Seems that if you try and make your dwarfs dig a staircase straight up and down for about 60 levels, they don't dig any deeper. I can set designations, and there isn't hot rocks or anything, and i'm not digging on

Has anybody else found this?

Yes, and I do believe that is intended.

A pathfinding quirk, maybe?  Try saving and reloading the game.

Only time I had that happen was when I got down to a layer of semi-molten rock that couldn't be dug out.
