Confusion about Depots
Kyronea:
So, can wagons not access depots that are underground? Part of my current fortress design has my depot isolated underground so that it's well away from my fortress defenses and can be easily isolated in the event of a seige, and yet when checking the depot accessibility, apparently the entire map is inaccessible to wagons and so is my depot.
Quietust:
Depots most certainly can be accessed underground - if yours is inaccessible, zoom to its location and view (D)epot accessibility to see where the obstacle is (depot accessibility travels outward from the depot itself).
Remember that wagons cannot travel up or down stairs - in order for them to get underground, you must use ramps.
(edit: typo fix)

They can't use stairs?
Crap. That would be the problem then. Right. I'll have to fix this...somehow. (Probably just by locating the depot somewhere else.
Urist Imiknorris:
They're WAGONS. They don't have feet. How could you expect them to use STAIRS?!
It's like letting nobles live. Easy to do, but wrong.
(except the DM. He's cool.)

I'm spoiled by other games that let you do such things.
