Summary0010341: Canceling a mission after some dwarves have left the map prevents them from returning.
DescriptionAfter a mission is assigned to a squad, it can still be removed using the mission interface up to a point, even if some dwarves have already left the map. Removing the mission while dwarves are off-map causes them to be stuck "traveling" and they will seemingly never return to the fort, even after retiring and unretiring.

Note: If the squad is taken off the mission, the off-map dwarves will return to the fort as new arrivals. This bug only occurs if the mission is removed entirely.
Steps To ReproduceCreate a squad and send them on a mission. After some but not all dwarves have left the map, remove the mission. (it's not clear exactly when the mission interface becomes locked, but a majority of the squad can leave before then)

Example save uploaded here: http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=13207 [^]
All starting dwarves were put in a squad and sent on a mission. The mission was removed once 5 of the dwarves had left the map.

This happened near the end of a really long stream I was watching

Can this be raised in priority/assigned due to issue 0010345 since inability to auto retire the fortress when all the present dwarves are off map & dead with reclaiming parties & this present issue could be a significant exploit.

The five dwarves from the save should return for next time, and it's generally a bit more robust. I imagine there could still be related issues though.
