GRRRRR... well lava overflows on channels unless you remove the ramps. On the plus side no more pumps needed, on the bad side, really dangerous! Dwarves WILL move zip in and out of a long channel even if there's lava inside [[User:Greep|Greep]] 04:37, 17 April 2010 (UTC) | GRRRRR... well lava overflows on channels unless you remove the ramps.

− | I've dug a channel in the new version all around my fortress entrance and filled it with 7/7 water flowing from a brook. Once the channel is full the dwarves can not cross it without a bridge and they never zip into it (I've tested by giving them jobs outside of the moat and they simply can not cross it) The water never over flows from the channel and it serves as a total barrier to anything that can not fly or swim so far. It is worth noting that several of my dwarves have the ability to swim and they still won't cross it on their own without a bridge. It has kept out Elephants who walk along it like a wall and a Jaguar that stalks up and down across the channel from my dwarves licking his lips. Just to make it clear, this is with the ramp still being there. Before the water is flowing they have no problem running in it though so no more empty moats unless you remove the ramp. | + | I've dug a channel in the new version all around my fortress entrance and filled it with 7/7 water flowing from a brook.
