0002162: Mysterious invisible creature on tile
I wish I knew what caused this or had a save of it, but my computer was restarted by my anti-virus before I thought to save it.

I found that one of my doors was open, even though the tile was empty. I deconstructed the door and rebuilt it, but the issue remained. I then deconstructed the door again and built a wall there, but the mason stopped working with the "a creature is occupying the site" message.

There was no water or magma flowing nearby, but it was a high traffic spot with lots of blood-soaked dwarves passing by. There were also a lot of goblin ambushes in the vicinity, but none reached this tile.

Hopefully someone has more information about this, because it would certainly harm a save to have an unblockable tile.
None that I know.
No tags attached.

Marking this "unable to reproduce." My best guess is that it's a combination of 0002093 with an invisible (sneaking) creature.
