So I installed a chalk well for my dwarfs to drink out of so they dont get attacked by deer. It was all going well until the lake i was draining for water went dry so i decided to make a channel from the river to my well so just to be safe i installed a flood gate to stop any water from entering my for But it went over the well and into my fort. So i locked down my fort with flood gates and half my fort (with a few peasents in there) is filling up with water so i was wondering how can i stop this large amount of water going into my fort so one day i can recover all my stone (will it still be there after the flood?)
edit: just read over this and i sayed fort a lot!
