| This article is about an older version of DF. |
A cave-in is what happens when there are no walls or Template:Ls in a section of cavern 7x7 or larger. Mining out an overly large room will not result in an immediate cave-in - after a short time, the message "You hear a deep rumbling coming from the cavern." will appear as a warning, then the room will eventually collapse. If a support holding up a 7x7 section is triggered by a Template:L or Template:L, though, the cave-in is immediate.
A cave-in produces a dust cloud which knocks dwarves unconscious, as well as several tiles of unmined rock (with varying levels of damage, similar to that from Template:L) such that there are no longer any 7x7 unsupported areas.
