Child stuck in leather bag
« on: December 11, 2006, 07:10:00 pm »

I had quite a few goblin snatchers trying to escape with my dear children but got massacred. However, I keep getting a message about a kid canceling his jobs because he's caged. I noticed that he's in a jaguar leather bag and was moved to my finished goods depot. If this isn't a bug, how do I get him out of there? I'm using the very latest 0.22.120.23b. I can post the save file if I can host it somewhere.

Huh.  I thought that this had been fixed.  I recently had a child - a baby actually - snatched, killed the snatcher and the baby popped right out of the bag.  No cloning happened either.  

This was with 0.22.120.23a.  Originally created with 0.21.105.21a.

What jobs is the child cancelling?  They do crawl out of the bags now, but maybe the child thinks there's a higher priority task and keeps cancelling instead of crawling out?

Playing on the previous release, I had a goblin make off with a child. I checked the inventory of the goblin, in his sack, and it was full of the child, by which I mean there was a list of this child's name repeated.

I didn't manage to rescue the child to see if multiple copies of the same child would erupt from the bag, but this was weird.

The multiple child bug from old version should be fixed now, though those saves aren't repaired.  I'm curious now about the jobs that were cancelling, since they seem to be higher priority than freedom to pursue them.

Knowing this game, it's probably either eating, sleeping, drinking or going on break.  Those four things are more important than life itself, after all.
