0002761: With "Replace clothing" turned off, soldier tries to equip breastplate, freezes because he's wearing too much
So here's what happened:

A soldier goes to pick up a ready steel breastplate from the forge. Just when he arrives, and starts putting it on, the mood dwarf claims the workshop. From this point on, the soldier is frozen in place with the job "Going to invidual combat drill". He is not moving, at all. If I remove the breastplate from his inventory, he will return to normal. If I re-add ANY breastplate, not just the steel one (I tried with a bronze spare), he will be frozen in place. Other items, like high boots, will be put on normally.

It's just the breastplate that freezes him in place.
Have a mood dwarf claim the forge just when a soldier is picking up the plate armor from it
Will post save in a few hours.

Does he resume normal operation after the mood is fulfilled?

Is this generating any error messages in the error log file?

Sounds like a fluke from timing, but still, a mood claimed workshop shouldn't prevent other dwarves from entering it to grab stuff.

Also, did you get any "OVERWROTE JOB" announcements? (check gamelog.txt)

There are a LOT of "CAN'T MOVE" errors in the errorlog.txt.

The mood was fulfilled but he still was stuck after getting a breastplate of any kind.

Also the dude died to a forgotten beast so the save won't work anymore :/

No "overwrote job" found.

Sounds to me that it may be the same situation as the one I described in 0000535:0010418. The mood dwarf claiming the forge might be only a coincidence.

Check if the soldier isn't wearing one breastplate already.

Edit: Someone please tell me how to make link to a note, even google doesn't know. Tried everything.
Edit2: Thanks Foot! ;)

It happens now with every soldier. Even newly drafted ones which have not had a breastplates on them before. So I have them fight with just mail shirts instead.

Have you tried "Replace clothing" setting in Equip screen?

It still might be the problem with them wearing too much stuff already.
At least we know it was not related to the moody dwarf.

Put a tilde before the note ID, like so: ~10418 produces the link 0000535:0010418

Now it works. Putting it on "replace clothing" allows them to move after equipping the plate. I didn't even know that option existed until you said it here. Thanks.

So it seems it was indeed because they were wearing lots of stuff and couldn't put on the breastplate on top of all that.
I think the issue summary can be edited accordingly.

Also thanks Footkerchief for info.

Do you have a save with soldiers still frozen in place?

I have the save where it all happens, but they currently all have replace clothing turned on so it works fine. Will try to replicate after I've dealed with this siege.. mounted goblin archers are a bitch to kill.

Toady may need an up-to-date save (0.34.02+) to fix this problem. It would be helpful for someone to upload a save to http://dffd.wimbli.com/ [^] and post the link here.
