DF Gameplay Questions / Dirty water?
« on: January 15, 2008, 08:46:00 pm »
So I've made an elaborate setup including 11 pumps and a giant channel to provide my underground dwarves with water during the winter (10 of which are anti-flooding from screwups), but one problem keeps escaping me. Even though I designate the water channels as "water zone", they still wander off to the other side of the map to drink in summertime! Also, some of the dwarves' profiles specify that they drank "nasty water". What is this? I haven't started producing chains yet, so no well. Is that the problem?

DF Gameplay Questions / Assign all tables as dining room in the dining hall?
« on: January 12, 2008, 08:08:00 pm »
So I've made a giant hall with 20 tables or so. I've activated the middlemost one as dining room. Does this make only this table "dineable", or do I have to assign the other tables as dining room as well?

DF Suggestions / "homemade walls" should act the same way as ca
« on: January 12, 2008, 07:40:00 pm »
I'm building these huge towers, and I keep being irritated at the b+C items, for two reasons:
1. You have to build them one at a time
2. They can't be mined away as cave rock can (mus be deleted as building)

Is there a reason for this? A wall is a wall, right? And if I use some walls and floors to patch up holes, they shouldn't have to seem totally different from ordinary walls, right? Also, the fact that you can't build a wall on top of a b+C floor is stupid. It is also unlogical that you should get your building materials back every time you delete such a structure, as there is only a set probability on  whether you should get materials from digging underground.

And why can't I engrave these walls?
