I have a soldier sitting at the entrance to my fort, where he was when we finished off the last goblin ambushes. He has two yellow arm injuries but no others (and yes, I checked for scrolling on the injury list), and seems disinclined to go anywhere. His squad is not on duty, and I've tried deactivating him, and reactivating him. His icon has a yellow background and regularly flashes white; I don't know what that means.

I've stuck the save up here (22MB compressed). Any ideas what's wrong with him?

Flashing white means wounded.

He's probably waiting to be rescued?

Then they're taking their sweet time about it.

I noticed that my other injured dwarf (got a leg mangled while trying to wrestle a hammergoblin) is just sitting on a bed with Soldier/No Job listed, depending on if he's activated or not. Shouldn't he be Resting in either case?

There's a bug where a dwarf that falls unconscious wakes up to be "no job" or "soldier" rather than "rest."  A mangled limb is a painful limb, which leads to passing out.  The workaround is to destroy the bed and wait for the wounded to be re-rescued.  Repeatedly.  Eventually, the mangling will fall to broken, and then normal resting will take place.  Or, the dwarf will be ignored and die.

Well, they did eventually drag the entryway dwarf to a bed, so I'm guessing he'll be okay. I'll try that remove-beds trick on the other one. Thanks.
