I would have thought someone might have talked about this already but I haven't been able to find anything.

I have several aggressive flying animals causing issues. Stationed soldiers won't shoot at them, when assigned to kill them the soldiers just wander off. The animals are 8 or fewer levels up and the dwarfs are less than 5 tiles away on the ground, easily with in range of their weapons yet no one does anything.

Archers only shoot at the same Z-level as they are on.

My archers definitely have shot at things across multiple z-levels, including flying ones. Several agitated Giant Keas in my previous fortress bore witness to this. Though my archers in my current forrtress haven't shot any flying creatures so I don't know if anything's changed, simply because I haven't had any flying creatures that need to be shot in my tundra wasteland.

Have a feeling this is true in this version. A duck was hovering 4 z levels above the ground, and my hunter went towards it to shoot it, but got close and then just decided to not shoot it. He had ammo and a quiver, and was indeed a hunter profession.
