:Ah, this confirms what I was seeing in [[Talk:Captured creatures#Capturing friends]]. And I think the actual effect is much worse. My dwarves refused to sleep on the trap under any circumstances, even when it was the only option, to the point that they went insane if supplied with food and drink for long enough. I've updated the article. — [[User:Wisq|Wisq]] ([[User talk:Wisq|talk]]) 06:54, 1 June 2009 (UTC) | :Ah, this confirms what I was seeing in [[Talk:Captured creatures#Capturing friends]].

:It might still be possible to actually build a trap under a dwarf while they're sleeping, but it'd have to be a pretty well-timed affair. | :It might still be possible to actually build a trap under a dwarf while they're sleeping, but it'd have to be a pretty well-timed affair. | ||

:For lethal versions, depending on how fast they trigger, upright spike traps might work as an alternative. If they're instantaneous, then no, but if they wait a tick or two, the dwarf might start to leave the room, then get impaled on the spikes they just triggered. A similar approach could probably be done using retracting bridges and a spike pit underneath, with the benefit that the bridge can be arbitrarily large to deal with the lag time between lever pull and actual retraction. — [[User:Wisq|Wisq]] ([[User talk:Wisq|talk]]) 17:58, 1 June 2009 (UTC) | :For lethal versions, depending on how fast they trigger, upright spike traps might work as an alternative.
