Any ideas why the enemy can't attack my base?

Here's a picture of it:

They form up on the road outside of it (this is the plateau west of Tiny Settlement btw), but then their pathfinding breaks and they stand there forever. At my old base they would run up and tear down the gates, but for some reason this base breaks them. If i open the gates they come attacking tho and have no problems pathfinding.

Things i have tried:

CTRL - SHIFT - F11
Having only one gate (this is how the base was originally)
Adding the second gate and opening that (they ran a few steps closer then, but broke again)
Saving/Reloading

Any ideas? I miss the attacks and my people manning the fancy new turrents miss them even more.

Couple thoughts (not sure if they'll help)

Have you checked to see if any roads run directly through the base?

Have you tried moving the town center "Statue" thing in the Shift+F12 menu? (You might need to look up a guide for it, I don't want to give bad instructions that might mess up your game)

There are no roads through the base no, but i will look up this statue thing, thanks!

I hear multiple gates really confuse the AI.

Fixed it. If you look in the bottom left of the interior of my base you might notice a small enclosure of tier 1 walls. This arena had a gate and the AI was for some reason thinking that this was the entrance to the entire base. I figured it out when i opened the front gates to let in some traders and they beelined to the arena to try and hawk their goods to the beat up prisoners inside.

Deleted the gate to the arena and now everything works great.

That's actually great to know. Thank you for updating this with the solution!

Np! I hate when i discover ancient threads with someone with the same problem i have and they just post "figured it out" and nothing more.
