Nuzzling

[The-MathMog]

Make "nuzzling" not cancel current processes. It is very annoying, when your doctor is doing surgery, and it get's cancelled just before completion, because the dog decided it needed a cuddle..
With the amount of animals I have in my current colony, it begins to actually become a minor problem, in an Icesheet Randy Extreme colony

Make a new animal zone. Highlight the hospital area, then go to "manage areas" and click invert. Name it "no animals allowed", restrict all of your animals to "no animals allowed".

If any other areas are also causing problems (the kitchen is one for me, because that's where the booze is and the elephant likes to get blackout drunk), do the same for them.

Yeah that might be a temporary option for me. I do that too to keep the wargs out of the meat-storage, and from my bored "incabable" pawn, that keeps walking into other people's bedrooms while they sleep, because he's got nothing better to do apparently. Haha drunk elephants! I bet they can chug down a few in a matter of seconds!

But yeah. For me it just becomes an irritating small thing that I have to do with zones, to optimize things. When my 1 armed crafter, get to redo his work on the slag, because the genetically modified war-machine of a dog, also needs some love from time to time

Wonder how much work it would be to have nuzzle a pause, not interrupt.  I never noticed this before.  Cats, the antagonist to efficient work.

Seems reasonable. I'm sure I wouldn't be able to perform surgery while my cat was nuzzling me.

Cats ignore the zone you assign them to when?

Lol, then it should at least be implemented properly!

Yeah I don't imagine it being a mayor fix. It doesn't interrupt all tasks either. Construction they just proceed, but it's crafting, like smelting and making components that is a problem :p

[Vaporisor]

Yeah.... If it resets components, that is a definite buzzkill

Indeed, it takes so long even without the interrupting!
