The very simple way to deal with this is the order {{K|o}} - {{K|i}} - dwarves stay indoors. This might give you a lot of cancel job messages and was reported to be slightly buggy in older versions. Dwarves may also still crowd your fortress' entrance(s), which is often not desirable. |
The source of this behaviour can be really a more general version of the previous (as they may be trying to do a job 'take item to depot' for dropped items), but can be generated by any object or stockpile that's sitting outside. Dealing with this in detail can be much harder unless you've kept your stockpiles inside and kept track of every object outside, because finding them to forbid them can be difficult, especially on larger maps or maps with many outdoor z-levels. | The source of this behaviour can be really a more general version of the previous (as they may be trying to do a job 'take item to depot' for dropped items), but can be generated by any object or stockpile that's sitting outside.
