Here I am after a quite lucrative trading session with some humans . After a while the reports said they have started their journey and lo and behold , one month after they havnt taken 5 steps from my trading depot. Yeah , they are stuck , is there any way to rectify this?

In before "magma".

Is this with .13?

[Urist Imiknorris]

Drown them in water. That way you get all your stuff back.

[Quietust]

Have they finished taking all of their goods out of the depot? If not, there's one rather easy way to accomplish this: go into designation mode (mining, woodcutting, etc.), move your mouse pointer over an empty tile, then click and hold until everything's loaded up. This is, in fact, the same bug that you can use to finish liaison/diplomat meetings while paused, though be careful that your cats don't all get adopted.

Sometimes they get trapped,ive had my merchants leave going through the caverns before even though the exit was infront of the trade depot.

Doesn't that mean you'll be smoothered by the impending flow of magma? Personally i want to be OUT before the magma

[synkell]

Yeah , they have taken all their stuff already ... Using .12, and I a) dont have water to drown them in (not much anyway) , b) bad experiences with magma. I dont have a exit through the caverns though , havnt breached them yet , need more military . The only exit through my fortress is the only way in , which is my bridge , which is down and connected to the green green land.

I think when you get that message what it means is that they are actually just starting to pack-up.  The message is significant only in that it means that they will no longer trade with you.

...Or it could be a bug of some sort, given that you said it's been a month.

[synkell]

Yeah , I think they are stuck in my depot . Winter passed ! and they are still sitting in my masterfully designed microcline-made depot , makes me wonder if they like it too much...

[Tupimus]

Sure they actually have a way out of there? I once had a durr-worthy human diplomat who 1. never actually got to conduct a meeting so I 2. forgot about him and 3. he went berserk because he couldn't man up to talk to the bloody mayor so I'd remember him in order to pull the sodding main bridge-gate lever.

You can check if depot have access to outside. Warning: can cause epilepsy.
