Dwarfs wont take away corpses
« on: October 25, 2014, 01:48:38 pm »

Dwarfs wont take away corpses.
Every-time I make a new meeting area underground the dwarfs go there as normal along with animals (pets maybe? (yaks, mules, horses etc))
Once these animals die they cause Miasma.

I have a refuse stockpile and the dwarfs can access it, however wont wont move the corpses? all dwarfs are set up for hauling everything, so this isnt the case

Why?
This is starting to get frustrating...

I also have available coffins for pets to

In a meeting area every animal and dwarf that is part of your fortress collects there. Try setting a Pasture using the zones (i) tool on top of some grass, and assign your animals there so they can graze and not starve.
Did you try making a corpse stockpile? Are the bodies forbidden? Also you might need to accept refuse from outside by seeting it in (o)rders under (r)efuse.

As stated the Dwarfs need to be 'o'rdered to gather refuse and vermin from outside because in the current version in- and outside validation got a little bugged.

I have both a refuse & corpse pile that accepts everything. I dont know if bodies are forbidden (Im still learning how to play) orders for refuse are all on 'gather'/'save'

Nothing yet...
