DF Gameplay Questions / Question on how to store goblins in cages.
« on: July 24, 2011, 10:20:32 am »
This is my first post on this forum as I've tried to google this issue to no avail.
In my current game I'm having severe FPS issues where my game is crawling along at 1 FPS. With only 42 dwarfs and one ongoing, current, siege... I think this is related to the following:
Just before the siege started, I built a cage room, and ordered my dwarfs to store the trapped goblins (from a previous siege) in these cages.
I've tried to zone the room as a pit and I've also tried just now to remove the zone and assign the goblins to the cages individually. However for some reason my dwarfs won't cage them. Instead I'm spammed over and over with the following messages.
"[Insert Dwarf] [Insert profession] cancels [insert job]: Handling dangerous creature"
and
"[Dwarf] [profession] cancels handling dangerous creature: Need empty cage"

I've got plenty of empty cages, I've even assigned the goblins individually. What gives?
