Hi guys,

just wanted to note that mining as a labor cannot be selected for a custom work detail.
I assume that this is an oversight since Toady recently made it possible to customize the starting work details.
All other labors seem to be in the list except for mining...

Edit: Not sure if this belongs in here or in the bug forum. Move it as you see fit.

This is intentional, the same thing applies to woodcutting and hunting

If it is intentional, as you say, what is the reasoning for it?
Wouldn't it be easier to have all available labors in the list to allow the player the most freedom of choice?

It's because those labors use civilian uniforms (axes, picks, and crossbows.) And they break if combined with each other or military uniforms. You also can't change the existing mining, woodcutting, and hunting work details.
