So my initial set up has 2 people starting with any skill in mining, but 7 picks, so everyone can assist with the initial mining expedition. However...the five with zero mining skill seem completely uninterested in helping. What's the deal? I've double checked their labors, they've got mining enabled... do they require a starting skill point before they'll mine? I don't remember having these issues when I first started 40d...

Try un-checking and then re-checking the labor? 

[RoninFrosty]

I think I tried that, but I'll double check. Anyone else have any ideas? I'm also seeing issues with hauling... I destroyed the wagon and set up a catch-all stockpile in the safety of the underground, but no one wanted to move anything. And I mean this is like right after embark, so it's not like they have had time to get depressed...

are they doing other things like gathering or tree cutting?
try checking [j]obs for what everyone is doing, the {u]nit list will also tell you.
EDIT:accidentally underlined, lol

[RoninFrosty]

I've checked the job list, and they're sitting there with NO JOB. And I've got an idler count. So I dunno what the deal is. Booting up to try unchecking/rechecking labors.

Also: nit list?

Sounds like you have the pathfinding bug that plagued 0.31.01 - are you using the newer bugfixes? If so, if you don't want to upgrade your save, you can save/quit/reload or build a door and occasionally lock/unlock it to reset the pathing boundaries.

I downloaded an integrated package with Phoebus' tileset, so I don't know if that includes the newest bugfix. Also: regenning now to see if maybe that'll fix it. Dunno if maybe I added a mod or something without realizing it.

Regenning seems to have worked. Weird. If I can replicate, I'll post again so some of the smarter folks here can figure it out. Thanks for all the suggestions.
