DF Dwarf Mode Discussion / Flow forbid
« on: December 30, 2010, 07:30:15 pm »
Hey all, medium time lurker, first time poster, etc etc.
So I've run into some weird pathing thing that I can't find anything about. In some areas, I try designating some stone to get mined and no one takes the job. Highlighting the path with k doesn't say anyhlthink funny. Then, just to test stuff out, I try building any random thing in the path to the stone, and apparently there's no access, despite there being an abundance of open, seemingly walkable times.
For the last bit of testing, I ran dfprobe on the inaccessible tiles and noticed the flag "flow forbid." I did a search on the wiki and here and found nothing. I'm assumig it has to do with liquids since these inaccessible areas were places that I artiicially filled and drained (first place was just the well resevoir, second place got hit with magma) Also the second instance became accessible again after some Fun involving a supposedly controlled cave-in above a highly pressurized resevoir that I forgot was there. Gg Armok. I know I haven't sacrificed anyone to you lately, but I'm still working on the !!science!! chambers.
Anyway. Flow forbid. I don't get it. Anyone know what's going on?
