0007928: Chopping down tree from above ground level results in cave-in, injures dwarf.
Scenario as follows:

I want wood. I have a slope with trees on it.
I mass designate some trees to be felled - targeting trees on a slope.

Some of those mass designates land on parts of the tree that are not at ground level.

Dwarf comes to chop tree down, walks from the slope onto the second level of tree, makes way to the centeral log and chops it down.

Cave in results

Dwarf falls to the ground and is injured.
Find a tree adjacent to a slope, such that leaves/branches are adjacent to the next level up.

Designate the second level of the tree for chopping down.

Wait for cave-in.

Load save. Locate Vabok Momuzigath, the only dwarf with a Fell-Tree task.
Unpause.
No tags attached.
