i have stairs and hallways. It's furstrating but there doesn't seem to be much in this cavern other than some webs and a few trees. Also is it normal for a cavern to have 3 zlevels?

I think I will just keep going down.

Doesn't that communal bedroom get noisy and disturb their sleep?

I breached the first cavern level(seems to be 3 z levels deep with ramps) but the dorfs won't enter it even though I have designated mining and chopping of trees there. Also should note that I have no burrows designated anywhere. I solve my military problem by having my fort entrance a long trapped halway that runs through the barracks.

Thanks. I always do it to and go out of my way to assign them each their own room with furnishings, but sometimes i feel like it would better be used on more barrels and bins.

DF Gameplay Questions / Importance of beds

I always just assumed that they are of high importance almost immediately but am now wondering if I have been wasting valuable wood. So how important are beds to all of you? Do you make them? Do you have one for each dwarf? bedrooms or dorms?

I know where the metal came from but not the sword. Also how can I get them to equip it?

Thanks that was very clear.
SECOND QUESTION:

I somehow ended up with an adamantium long sword despite no battles yet. i can't seem to get any of my military to equip it since it is a long sword but not foreign which is the only menu option even close. Any ideas? Also any idea where it came from?

Hm, we are making progress. A dorf took initiative and threw a mule down the pond...Not water, but atleast he threw someting XD

Consider that a proper sacrifice to Armok in hopes of a better harvest

Designate a channel. However, now that channels are ramps there's trouble with that. Recently it involves digging out two squares, then constructing a floor over the access channel.

Thanks for the answer but I am still not clear. So I need to dig a channel 2 spaces long and then build a floor over the first tile?0

Unfortunately dwarf power like that can a: die (starvation, thirst, moods, etc etc), and b: sleep.  Better just having a switch turn it on and off, and letting your creation do the operation for you.

you can drop food and booze from above to fix that problem, or an airlock adjacent.
