Summary0008651: Outpost liasion is showed as other dwarf class during trade agreement diplomatic meeting
DescriptionOutpost liasion was showed as a fisherdwarf during my last trade agreement diplomatic meeting in that "The expedition leader AAA meets with _fisherdwarf_ BBB" heading of the meating. It was so during the whole meeting. I guess that liasion is a fisherdwarf when she is not in liasion business.
Steps To ReproduceWait for outpost liasion to appear on the first autumn
Talk with him/her
Additional InformationI have a save from the moment caravan showed so I will try to rerun that meeting and see if it happens again. I may also add some screenshots of that heading if needed.

World is new from 40.20, this is the first save. Moved to 40.21 recently. Meeting has occured on the autumn of year 5, the first year of my fortress.

The save would be useful.

In the initial announcement of their arrival, are they a Liaison or a Fisherdwarf? What about in the [u]nits list?

Units list shows her as an outpost liaison, same does looking at her directly via [k] or [u]-[z].

I have rerun the save and it happens again.

The first screen of meeting says "The expedition leader Shorast Thikutmorul mts wth the Fshrdwrf Adl Lktlbsh" in the heading and "Adil Likotlibash: I am your liaison from the Mountainhomes. Let's discuss your situation." in the body.

Initial announcement says "The Fisherdwarf Adil Likotlibash from Lokum Am has arrived." in announcement. I missed it there, being interested more in the caravan itself. But I was confused for the whole meeting - I have thought that diplomat has met with _my fort's_ Fisherdwarf at first.

I have tried retiring. But Legends say about Adil Likotlibash only that she "became outpost liaison in year 5".

Btw, I am not using any mods and am playing with the core tileset.

It seems to be near what hyperactiveChipmunk reported in 0000253:0015502, the only difference being neither [u]-[v] or [k]-[Enter] in "view" shows the proffesion now, it seems.

After I moved to 40.23 and I found in [c]ivilizations screen there is a list of important dwarves of my mountainhome. All of them have their common professions listed too. The line of liaison says:

Adil Likotlibash: outpost liaison / fisherdwarf

So that liaison was not showed like some random profession, as I have thought at first, but "just" by her common profession. But I still think these nobles should introduce themselves with their title and not their profession.
