Legendary Dwarfs & Pathfinding
« on: May 31, 2011, 05:53:52 am »

hi

i ve build a nice channel to protect some parts of my fortress and now my nearly legendary axedwarf, had the funny idea to sit there and wait for death

the channel is a long line and a single tile broad and even has a ramp, so he should be able to get out

i ve even restricted the area but he doesn't move
oh and i ve checked his health ... he is not hurt and not in a mood or something like that ...

the strange thing is that he isn't miserable (well not yet^^)
he just seems to have decided to comit suicide trough stupidity


is there anything else i could do to save him?
(beside digging him a new exit)

Try stairs.

Your ramp may not be properly placed.

thx

the stairs didn't seem to work, so i decided enough is enough and flooded the channel ...
i don't know how or why but when he saw the wather he paniced and suddenly "learned" how to use stairs

this dwarf doesn't like wather  :)
