Summary0003147: Heathcare dwarves return leftover cloth/thread to outside stockpile instead of hospital supplies
DescriptionWhen a doc-dwarf does heathcare that requires a resource (expendable?), like thread or cloth, when finished with the treatment this is returned to a stockpile that accepts this item rather than returning it to the hospital storage.
When confining the doc to a hospital only burrow, this leads to stockpile inaccessable spam as the doc is stuck on this task.

This can be fixed by having a 'leftovers' stockpile in the hospital itself, only problem if there is overflow of production in these goods.

Presumably the same occurs with plaster powder and buckets, but I have not observed this personally yet.

Surprised this issue is not yet reported, if I missed the report, please close. :)>
Steps To ReproduceBuild hospital.
have it stocked.
Have adequate doctor dwarf.
restrain this doctor to a burrow containing only the hospital, his chambers and possibly a diningroom.
access to a watersource and food stockpile is also nice.
Has cloth/thread/.etc stockpile outside burrow.

Get a dwarf cut open or smashed, so that sutures or dressing is required.
observe: after one of these tasks is completed, the doc will want to store the cloth/thread in the stockpile.

ps buckets are dropped wherever after use.

Not confirming, but could be related to 0000287?
indeed, it is a sibling. ;)

I don't think this happens anymore in 0.34.11. I've recently witnessed doctors putting consumable supplies straight back into the hospital coffer, in my only 0.34.11 fort. I haven't witnessed partially used consumables leaving the hospital.

My executable is vanilla 0.34.11, but heavily patched with binary patches found in these issues:
0005994: Destroying a wall empties the wood stockpile
0004406: Hospital zone does not respect cloth maximums
0003759: Dwarven caravan brought silver crossbow, ITEMS_WEAPON_RANGED ignored in world gen?
0006116: Fish in aquariums interfere with vermin behavior checks
0003100: Military dwarves turn off all of their labors when becoming heroes
0004530: Marksdwarves won't use training bolts unless combat bolts all used up

Maybe they don't put them back when the hospital is overstocked on the item.

I don't know about in a hospital, but whenever I set up a Fill Pit/Pond zone the dwarves fetch a bucket from wherever, get the water, dump it into the zone then leave the bucket sitting where they stood when they poured the water into the pit/pond zone. This is 0.34.11 (phoebus).

I observed dwarves going to the stockpile, dressing wounds, and storing the used cloth back in the stockpile, even after I provided coffers in the hospital. The coffers are currently empty because I only got around to building them after the injured dwarves arrived.

Save at http://dffd.bay12games.com/file.php?id=11101 [^] . He does eventually get around to putting stuff in the coffers but only once someone else has put it there.
