Summary0002611: Cage traps ignore creature's size
DescriptionCage traps ignore a creature's size, or they are magical things that can capture 5-ton, 15-ton and 50-ton creatures.

One fix could be to specify in the raws that all creatures over a certain size ignore all traps.
It might be possible for high-speed creatures (fastest goblins included) to nimbly avoid cage traps.
Steps To ReproduceAlter a common wildlife's size to 15 tons (or wait for a megabeast) and wait for it to run into a cage trap. Outdoor walls help guide the victims to the traps.
Additional InformationTraps are supposedly one third the length of wagons and workshops.
TagsNo tags attached.

The bug tracker is currently not for suggestions.
Since this is not obviously a broken feature, and is instead more of a suggestion to change the functionality of cage traps (to reflect realism), I suggest you take this to the Suggestions Forum (if/when the forums are working).
