colonists still walk true fire to get to another piece of fire.
as i see it if fire begins and the colonist is assign fire piece A and while he is moving there fire piece B formed the colonist will walk true fire piece B to get to fire piece A and sets himself on fire

I dunno if it's possible to fix that, unless there is a recheck for closest fire every so many ticks. Once they walk to a "job", the just go and complete it. Good catch. Was wondering why they would do that. Seems a bit better though compared to alpha 8 though.

not really, in alpha 8 they would still go for the first job but walk around the new fires more often, this time they all just walked true and all my guys were on fire at the first bush fire.

also it seems that fire outdoors spreads a lot faster than before
