Job interruptions
« on: October 29, 2007, 10:38:00 pm »
I started my fortress on top of a cave.  A batman escaped from the cave, and now I keep getting jobs canceled for "Interrupted by batman", despite the fact that it's flying around 6 levels above my dwarves and not interfering with them at all.  Any ideas?

Well, there's one idea that should work. Crossbows.

I have been noticing that most animals are less agressive, but dwarves are just as skittish.  I couldn't get a particular tile dug next to an underground lake because there was stuff living in the lake.
