Summary0008677: Miners will idle if a mining designation exists, but a higher ranking designation is blocked off
DescriptionI noticed this when my miners started refusing to mine anything with a designation lower than 4. Eventually I figured out that I had designated mining areas with 5, then removed their path to get to that designation (hit a cave and stopped mining there). I have a world save that illustrates the issue. https://onedrive.live.com/redir?resid=1610A002038CC1CD!34325&authkey=!AEuqFLhZsvSQbU0&ithint=folder%2cdat [^]
Steps To ReproduceDesignate mining to be done, but make it in an area that miners don't have access to. They will now ignore all designations below that rank, even if they have access to it.
