Fleeing dwarves do not use stairs
« on: November 12, 2007, 01:58:00 am »

I had a leatherworker get spotted by a goblin pikeman while attempting to retrieve a single bolt left by a hunter on top of a cliff.  In fleeing, he walked directly over the stairs that would have led him to safety, but did not use them.  He died, of course.

I've had fleeing dwarves use stairs.

I think its a question of how many directions can the run "away" and then they simply pick one. In the case of your dwarf, he just chose poorly.
