Traders not using wagons?
« on: April 03, 2010, 08:35:01 am »

My traders (elves and dwarves so far) Are not using wagons for trading and its making it EXTREMELY hard to go under the weight limet. Is anyone else having this problem?

I saw one post where the elves turned up with no trade goods. I'm guessing they didn't bring a wagon if they didn't bring any stuff...

Is there any way to remove mud outdoors?
Yea, use dirt roads to clear off the mud.

Elves aren't supposed to bring wagons, so that's normal. Dwarves, however, probably should be bringing them, so it's possible that's a bug. Of course, back in 0.23 (i.e. the 2D version), Humans were the only race to bring wagons, so it's possible this may be intentional...

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Was the depot accessible? Was there a 3-tile wide path from where they came in to the depot? If not, you should have recieved the message "Their wagons have bypassed your inaccessible site."

Check with Shift-D.
