0008666: Farmers Have Difficulty Planting Seeds - Job Cancellation Cascade
I noticed a spammed message of "...cannot complete job, job item lost or destroyed."

I did a little investigation and watched my two farmers take a seed out of the stockpile, walk to the farm, then continually run back and forth on and off the farm tile with each cycle giving a job cancellation. I experimented with plump helmets, dimple cups, and rock nuts (though no plants that grow on the surface) with the results the same each time.

This seemed to occur through all seasons over the course of two years. Any seeds that were planted could be harvested without error.
No tags attached.
