[Bug] Some extremis black ant diggers forget to go to the queen
- Thread starter HofNerd
- Start date
They were a part of the original digging squad. When all digging was done they just moved back and stayed there. I don't think that was supposed to happen. (I could be wrong about this.)
Logged! Likely an oversight in the level blueprint, or it might be intended behaviour. I'll ask John.
It looks like it is triggered by digging out where they were intended to dig near the queen. They end up too far away and don't know what to do next.
(Uncertain about it, but it looks like it.)
I had no ants near the digger group, but their last digging target tile was cleared. They started waiting about.
Edit: repeatable
As soon as the digger ants stop digging they become idle. Normally that happens near the player's queen, but when it doesn't the ants just idle about.

Just wanted to say somewhere thanks for the crash reporting. I have your crashes and I am going through them today. Along with the information this has been incredibly useful in hunting down the issues. Most of them reside with the large amount of changes made to moment and jumping (the latter was somewhat rushed at the end).
Tunnellers AI is very basic. I have added in something that should cause them to head to there swarm point (the queen in this case) if they are idle and in the same location as it.
