[40c] Delete stockpile doesn't interrupt dwarf pathwalking
« on: September 22, 2008, 12:49:29 am »

To reproduce:

- Create a stockpile at a distant location. Mine was for stone blocks.
- Wait for a dwarf to start hauling an item to place in that stockpile.
- Delete the stockpile

The dwarf immediately drops the hauled item, but continues walking the rest of the way to the stockpile before taking a new job.

Activating and Deactivating military mode didn't interrupt the long walk either.

I just tried this out, and I'm not having this problem.  They'll continue walking, but they don't have any trouble taking new jobs.  It doesn't bother clearing the path information, and it would probably be cleaner if it did, but it doesn't impact their ability to take jobs.
