[39f] Miners not Digging UP/DOWN Staircase
« on: August 15, 2008, 04:10:22 pm »

Wierd bug. I was digging a long tunnle to get underground acess to a some magitite ore I can see on the surface. On the way there, I hit some coal, and designated that to be mined, too. One square is remained to be mined, along with some Up/Down Staircases. I have 3 miners, but 2 of them report NO JOB in yellow, instead of going over and digging the Up/Down Stairway. I'll get a save up as soon as I figure out how. My current save does not show up in my Save Directory like it used to.

Yeah, that's a weird issue that's cropped up in 39*.  For some reason, miners get forgetful about designations that cross z-levels like stairs and ramps.  Cancelling the stairs and remarking should get them back to work.  Hopefully, this issue won't last too long.

Just replying to reporting this happening in 40d, occasionally resulting in the death of several miners, forcing abandonment
