Moods borked?
« on: December 20, 2014, 04:20:29 pm »

So my mooded militia commander refuses to walk three tiles to pick up a stone for his mood in .21. He's probably going insane any minute now. Bug with the new work priority release?

Are you sure he needs that kind of stone?

Yep, just regular common rock. He just won't pick it up for some reason.

You're not the only one.

Almost lost a kid to insanity due to wanting rock. No preferences listed in his status screen, plenty of rocks and blocks about.

Thankfully, a dragon stopped by to murder everyone before the mood could fail properly.

Quietust, what would we ever do without you and your endless knowledge of v0.23a?
I was going to say "fail spectacularly", but you guys seem to be doing a great job of that already.

Had this happen to me too.
It seems to be fixed though by just forbidding what they have at the shop and then they happily gather the rest of the items. (You can then unforbid when they run off) I don't know if it is anything to do with gathering multiple items?

It's fixed in 40.22 anyway. Multiple-item fetching seems to work better in general, or maybe I was just paying more attention. Little guys lugging about 40 fish between stockpiles, one dwarf wandering around to pick up a lot of single arrows I reclaimed. Handy.

This was a nasty bug in previous versions, now fixed by 40.22. Always having the latest version is a good idea unless it is extremely unstable. The worst bugs tend to be fixed bery quickly, though some bugs have been around for a very long time...

On the item is an image of a dwarf and an elephant. The elephant is striking down the dwarf.

For old times' sake.
