0008671: Dwarves will deconstruct floors under (themselves/neighboring dwarves?) causing them to fall

Sometimes the dwarves standing on dangerous tiles 'realize' at the last moment and cancel their job, walking away. Sometimes they don't (or possibly they do 'realize' but there is no job to take them away elsewhere so they don't move fast enough). I did upload the save from the screenshot. But nobody fell when I unpaused. shrug Two _did_ fall in the earlier incident, but I don't have a save for them.

I don't know why he is standing on top of that tile. My best guess is that he previously deconstructed the tile _next_ to him, then decided he didn't have to move.

Does the problem persist if you only have one dwarf removing floor tiles (and no other traffic)? In my experience, dwarves will generally refuse to remove the floor under a fellow dwarf, but will foolishly remove the floor under themselves.

(0031815) ptb_ptb (reporter) 2015-01-09 06:42	@Loci Yeah, it probably is a duplicate of 0008253 I didn't see that one when I searched the bug tracker.

After a while I have found one of the higher ones has a dwarf that is removing that stairs he was standing one. Both stairs above and below him were already removed. After he removed his stairs there was no splash because this was 7ish levels above terrain on side of constructed pillar of big bridge (from walls, not actual "pillar" and "bridge" buildings). Instead, he fell an immediately died from the impact. I have save stored from few days before the incident. If needed, I may try to remove that staircase again and see if there does happen any creature swapping.
