flying things don't fly
« on: October 31, 2007, 03:16:00 am »

I have a Giant Eagle that has been in the same square for as long as I have noticed it. It is one square above the ground (it's still visible) and just hanging around, scaring my dwarves who are trying to cut trees

I'll third this, except with flying dwarves... they just hang there, immobile, doin' nothin'.  All my miners are currently suspended in midair  :(

I've had some luck previously building something (Floors, stairs, bridges, whatever) underneath the hanging dwarf to get it moving again, so maybe it's something with the pathfinding?

So if you 'k' over your dwarves, it has the dwarf on open space without a cyan background?  Or is the background of the dwarf cyan?  What kind of tile are they above?
