Looping Militia Captain
« on: May 07, 2011, 07:23:20 pm »
I have a militia captain (a marksdwarf) who seems stuck in a Pickup Equipment - Soldier (Cannot Follow Order) loop.  Basically starts collecting crossbow, quiver, etc., then something goes wrong, and the militia captain starts the process all over again.

I would rather have this militia captain actually training or shooting Moose Men/Women than stuck in this loop.  What's going wrong?

I'm pretty sure if a military dwarf has both hunting and military things enabled it'll go into a spiral like that.

Is there any cancellation messages, such as "Urist McCaptain cancels Pickup Equipment: Equipment mismatch" or similar?
