-What the circumstances were:
I rescued a visitor who had been beat up by his own tribe after going berserk. 

-What happened.
Upon rescue, my colonist placed him right next to a medical wooden bed.  Now my colonists can't interact with the visitor.

-What you expected to happen.
My colonist should have placed him in the bed.

-How we can reproduce the bug.
Unsure.  Attached save game and log file.  Ensured I still couldn't interact after loading savegame.

Ignore the dog in the bottom right corner.  I had him eat some chocolate.  I'll post it as another thread.

Sorry, forgot to put the "W" in the thread title.  I am using windows.

So... I tried to shoot him to get him to see if I could rescue him again.  My colonist automatically put him in my prison as a prisoner.

Well, it's correct you can't rescue him from where he is in the save. He's just sleeping, not downed, and you can't rescue people who aren't downed. Took me a while to figure this out, actually.

As for what happened before (placed next to, instead of inside, a bed), without a repro there's not much I can do. My best guess is that maybe the victim healed up between when you rescued him and when he arrived? I can't tell. Either way, we'll watch for it happening again and thanks for the bug report.
