Summary0002469: If burrow includes unrevealed webs, dwarves try to collect the (inaccessible) webs and spam cancellations
DescriptionI created a burrow named Common and defined it as the entire 3-D map. Immediately the game began to spam: Weaver cancels Collect Webs: Needs 10 undisturbed thread.

I solved it temporarily by removing all but the first 10 layers belowground from the Common burrow.

I put this under Pathfinding because the previous web issues were in the catagory. There didn't seem to be a Burrow catagory. I'm not sure if this is a pathfinding issue or a burrow issue.

Just for the record, the caverns were not yet opened in this case.

Hi. I would like to add a note that this seems to also spoiler the cavern locations via the stock list (in the Z-menu).

I was wondering about the collect webs cancellation spam. I had not found a cavern yet, but I had added some whole undergound levels as a 'safe' burrow before all this job cancellation spam started.

I then found out that there were a lot of 'giant cave spider silk thread' and 'cave spider silk threads' in the stock list, even though I should have none of them. I zoomed into their locations and the cursor pointed in the middle of an almost-unmined level that was included in the burrow. After a short digging towards the location, a huge cavern was revealed.

0000010 should have covered uggi's problem with the unrevealed thread in the stock screen spoiler.
