[40d11] Dwarfs ignore items
« on: August 11, 2009, 04:24:26 am »

hi,
i have the issue, that my dwarfs ignore some of the items lying around after i reclaimed the fortress.
i reclaimed the fortress, marked the whole area for reclaiming (d-b-c), but some of the stuff is just ignored.
one door is lying around, some wood but i can't use them. they are also not marked as forbidden or anything i know why those things are not useable.

It's a well known bug with reclaiming. You'll have to forcefully move them somehow, whether by using water or digging a channel under them, or maybe sticking a building on top of it. I think they are too heavy for water (although wood should float on water, but it doesn't), so you'll have to try the other two options.

There's always magma, but we know how that will work out.
