0008323: Dwarves moving through walls, enemies passing through walls
This appears to happen randomly and I can't for the life of me figure out how to re-produce it. I first noticed it when I had a barracks next to a pool of water that has a roof over part of it. My dwarves would randomly teleport into the pool and then die. Especially obvious when they would sometimes be able to get out but the babies they were carrying died. Also happens when I have a pit underneath a draw bridge with a 1 tile wide wall around it. The enemies would sometimes teleport out of the pit into the surrounding cave i used as a means to evaporate the water I would fill said pit to drown intruders.
No idea, however, only obvious with rooms of dwarves with water beside them (I'd get random deaths due to drowning), or pits used to trap enemies with a 1 tile wide wall around it.

Suspect it has something to do with climbing but that's just a hunch
No tags attached.

0007444 probably explains your barracks. Are the goblins doing any charging/dodging?

How thick walls can they charge/dodge through to avoid in the future? It's possible with the goblins, they appear to teleport through the wall around them into my workshop area which really drives my civies crazy. Can they target the dwarves through the wall as they are falling?

I don't know -- those questions might be better suited to the Gameplay Questions forum: http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?board=7.0 [^]
