I built a little enclosure out in my outdoors to hold my tame animals instead of having them rumble around the entire fort.  This didn't work for a variety of reasons, so I tagged the walls for deconstruction, and they were deconstructed.  The door that I had put in so I could put the animals in did NOT deconstruct when the walls came down.  I had to 'x' it out manually.  This was a door outside.

Okay, I'll check it out.

I realize that the great Toady One has already said he'll look at it, but this doesn't sound like a bug to me; a door is a piece of furniture, not a construction, so I don't see why the Remove Construction designation (assuming that's what was meant by "tagged the walls for deconstruction") would remove it. (Whether it should is a whole different beast.)

You sure it wasn't connected to a wall? Even diagonally? It won't be deconstructed as long as there is a wall, natural or constructed, touching one of its eight sides.

Oh, I forgot about that aspect of it. So, yeah, that does indeed sound like a bug. My apologies. Here's a movie of it happening in 33d (I'm waiting until the bugs from the bug fixes get worked out to upgrade) to make up for it.

Um, is that a colussus? And you're not worried?

According to messages, it's a cougar. Surely if it was a colossus he wouldn't be having a problem removing that door.
