You can trap yourself in place with a fishing pole.

So, I explored one of the new random start dungeons, a cave with young azuridaes, a amall water hole and a campsite among other things.

After clearing the map, I went to the water hole, and sat down a fishing rod to catch some eels.

The problem:
Playaer character stood right by the water, on a sort of peninsula with only one way to move away. I could place the fishing rod one tile away, so the rod blocked the way out. I could not pick up the rod, because it blocked my movement, and could not move away either.

Result: Reload game.

Could be an edge case with map tiles, but I could see this happening in other fishing places as well.

Had the same thing happen on the Black Sea Siphoner Pools.

Again, had this happen, this time on Silent Isle.

The fishing pole has placed itself so that the character can not move, and can not dismantle it.

The only solution is to quit and reload the latest savegame. Can be extremely frustrating to say the least.
