Summary0001878: Trader lose all their goods on the ground if running through oscillating water
DescriptionI dug into an aquifer in my entrance, it just keeps a nice waterfall down the stairs and drop into the natural cavern (my fort is between 2nd and 3rd cavern level so way down). traders that run the long way lose all their goods on the floor in the watery area i a 2/7 runs onto the tile their pack animal is currently on.
Steps To Reproducebuild trade depot, make way in through oscillating water with 1/7 and a few 2/7.
Additional Informationfrom the elven traders some stray tigerman got into my possesion too, but somehow they died of thirst and one was even an animal caretaker. dunno if thats a bug, but according to raws tigerman are not that different and have no entity that allows animal caretaking :x

I just reproduced that bug. My fortress has a water werks for power, comfort, and disposal, which empties on the surface at the bottom of the mountain. The traders showed up there, and I've goods scattered throughout the alluvial fan.

I appear to have a similar issue. Traders will drop their goods as well.

In addition, wagons will get pushed around by the flow of water, and once got stuck in the corridor walls. After widening the corridor and awaiting the next caravan, they attempted to go through the middle of the flow, got pushed around and finally entered the Trading Depot.

At this point, [q]->highlight Depot informs me that there are no merchants trading right now.
