Redesign: Have hunting dwarf collect meat
Currently, after an animal has been hunted, the hunting dwarf will path back to HQ without gathering meat resource. Then another dwarf will path to meat to collect it. Let's make the current hunting dwarf check for meat resource and gather if there's something there.

That's simply not true. Dwarfs that hunt do in fact collect meat from hunted animals.
They don't. Take a look at it in game. If the logic is there, then it's not working for some reason.
Cannot reproduce. Hunting dwarves gather meat. What are the specific steps taken to reproduce?
Regressing. This is still occurring on 1fb82458
- Select animal to hunt.
- Have dwarves kill it.
- Observer original killer does not collect the meat resource, but paths away.
- Another dwarf paths to resource to collect it.
This happens every time for me.
The following happens every time for me, I think there's something more to it than you think:
- Select animal to hunt.
- Dwarf kills animal.
- Same dwarf collects animal meat.
Are you selecting multiple animals by chance? If that's the case killing the next animal is higher priority than gathering the meat, in which case it's working as designed.
Hm. That seems to be mostly it. The end result is pretty much always that the last rabbit gets collected by a dwarf that's far away from it.
I'm still seeing the occasional item left behind. Not just from hunting, also from harvesting plants.

Again, all of that is intentional, because there were a bunch of bugs/complaints about dwarfs spending their time gathering instead of doing other tasks. It used to be that a callback got registered with the object the dwarf was killing, and the callback would result in the dwarf automatically collecting the item -- but we undid that because it was resulting in a memory leak, you remember that right @Blecki? Do we want to find a way to re-enable that callback without triggering a memory leak?
If there's a quick fix to that, sure. If it takes more than a day, I say let's not worry abut it.
Not really. It seems to work 99% of the time still, so I'd consider it a bug. I think the dwarf is just forgetting the task.
