0004894: Free Items at Depot
Deleting depot while caravan is present causes all items to be dropped.
While setting up an underground fortress the caravan arrived. I hadn't build the depot where I wanted it, so I built one to be temporary on the surface. I finished trading and ordered the depot to be destroyed, having cleared the area where I wanted the real one by then. The dwarfs ended the old depot, but before the merchants had left. Eventually the caravan left and I noticed a caged sheep where the old depot was. Certain I hadn't bought one, I looked at other items and saw more things I hadn't traded for.

Unsure how this affects the next years caravan.
No tags attached.
