Animals pulling wagons "swim" in magma
« on: January 07, 2009, 02:18:18 pm »

I have made a lavaduct -a row of lava, one tile thick, hemmed in by two walls one tile thick. Ramps provide access for wagons across the top of the lavaduct. When the human caravan came, they rightly chose to move over the lavaduct, but when the center tile of the wagon (that seems to decide it's elevation) was on the ramp tile, the wagon extended into the wall in front of that, and the two horses pulling the wagon were... in the lava. Cue red legs, burning horses, a trail of smoke to my trade depot, and a HUGE fire due to all the logs I had requested.

I tried to find this hilarious bug on the list, but couldn't.

This has actually been reported almost verbatim:

000850 □ [flows] (Report) wagon pullers that stick out through the walls into magma in narrow ramped areas are burned

Augh. My search-fu is weak. Then this topic is superfluous.
