Pawn hauling chunk aside to build grave hauls it back and forth endlessly

Hi, I've found a strange behavior of pawns, that start moving between two positions in a loop.

it happens sometime when you order to build a grave on a place covered by rock chunks and pawn tries to make free place for it.
I'm not sure if it is related to having no dump zones to take moved chunks, but I'm almost sure it is not.

Here you can find two savegame:

  • the one named "t" is "normal" save
  • the one "loop" is instead the one where pawn named "Shield" is looping, after I tried to build graves in marked spots.

The pawn probably tries to remove the chunk onto a place of another chunk, so he does that and by replacing the chunks and so he has a new chunk in his hands and puts it on the first chunk's place and the chain goes on.

Pawn hauling chunk aside to build grave hauls it back and forth endlessly because he places it on the other grave cell instead of taking it away entirely.

if it can help, you can find a savegame in my post reporting the same behavior.
