| + | A dwarf whose tasked item is no longer in the same tile as when his job was assigned will cancel the job with this message. Often the "missing" item will be a scant few tiles away, and the job can be reissued referencing its new location. Occasionally, the item will have actually been destroyed (possibly as the result of a [[cave-in]] or [[Dwarven atom smasher|atom smashing]]). | ||
| + | |||
| + | While dwarves [[Main:Dwarf cancels Construct Building: Item blocking site|will not directly move tasked items]], they may ''indirectly'' move them (such as by [[channel]]ing out the floor underneath the item, disassembling a [[building]] containing the item, or buggily deconstructing a [[construction]] near the item). Items may also be moved by natural forces such as [[cave-in]]s and [[flow]]ing liquids, or by one of the many thieving creatures in Dwarf Fortress. | ||
| + | |||
| + | This error may also occur if the tasked item changes state--such as a [[leather|raw hide]] becoming [[rot]]ten, or an [[ice]] boulder melting. | ||
