[Bug] Doctors are now Witch Doctors in Alpha 31

[Fisher27]

With alpha 31, my doctors have thrown their medical degrees out the window. When a prisoner dies from starvation ( ), they now hold seances non-stop in the infirmary, and the prisoner will not be taken away by ambulance. Saving and reloading doesn't appear to fix this.

Works fine for me. Chris has however seem to have written some new code for this though. Since now the doctors are doing a bigger part of the job that was otherwise done by guards.

I love that title

i loved doctors taking prisoners to medical room its very good start - its wasn't mentioned in release notes

[Fisher27]

Someone has now reported a similar bug on Mantis. Apparently healing prisoners in general might be messed up a bit.

Meanwhile, my doctors have tired themselves out jabbing at the air continuously...

I'm getting the "dead bodies not being hearsed away" bug again. Oddly, they are all snitches that had their covers blown.

My doctor just ignored injured prisoner ...

[kikogolk]

I have the same problem as Fisher27. My doctors are busy healing the air instead of the prisioned

And I have a prisioner that is always requiring healing even when he is ok. Good way to get free drugs , and sometimes doctors are healing some prisioners forever till I give them other action.

Half my doctors just pointed at the direction of the injured prisoner instead of picking him up. Or maybe they just headed towards that direction, forgetting the existence of walls.

This is absolutely game-breaking. Doctors have to be continuously fired and rehired in order to stop them from bugging out.

Actually, all you need to do is manually direct a doctor towards the injured prisoner. Once the prisoner is healed, simply move the bugged doctors by a tile or two and they'll be fixed.
It's actually only happened once to me so far.

For me they try to "Heal Prisoner" but they get all excited and get stuck on the wall like guards do when a prisoner is acting up in a room nearby. They forget all about path finding and want to walk through the wall.
I haven't needed to fire any yet though. Click deploying them away from the wall fixes it for me usually.

[Stereolab]

I didn't even know click deploying was a feature. Joy.

I'm Also having this exact problem. I've had a teacher killed in a fight once and I can't seem to get rid of him, which means I can't do the education program.

It's completely game breaking for me unfortunately My doctors are wanking permanently, and the chain reaction makes it impossible to play.
