0004200: Goblins on mounts cannot pass forbidden doors
Pretty much what the summary states.

Save: http://www.sendspace.com/file/qq5tro [^] (DFFD seems down ATM)
1. Load save.
2. See goblins try to enter unsuccessfully.
3. Unforbid one of the doors.
4. Goblins can now move in!
No tags attached.

Er... unless mount is building destroyer this is not bug. Or I missed something?

I'm not sure, but I think that unmounted goblins would pass through normally.

EDIT: I've tested this - it appears that unmounted goblins can't pass through the door either, but unlike the mounted ones, will not path through and won't bash their heads on it in a futile attempt to get in.

In my experience, non-mounted goblins will still "bash their heads on it" if the door is forbidden after they start pathing through it. Could this have happened with the mounted goblins?

Possible. I've certainly forbidden the doors after the siege started, but I can't say whether the game was unpaused before or after I did.
