Road help
« on: March 11, 2007, 12:52:00 pm »

I've been having some trouble getting my road to register as "complete" (expanding through the forests).  I have rebuilt it twice, in the same spot, and still can't seem to find the problem.  I have smoothed out all the rocky bits until they couldn't be detailed any more.

Here is a picture of the road:

Any suggestions?

I fixed the image, posted it wrong last time.

To the right of the road is the entrance to my fortress.

The trade depot is north of the road a bit.  Do I have to pave that too?

Well, you have to build the road to the trade depot- so yeah, if there's no road that connects to the trade depot, it won't work.

Just pave a road north to the trade depot and everything should work...

The idea of the road is to do a road to the trade depot, not a road to the rest of your fortress...

If you need to post the road image again, be sure to show all of the area between your Depot to the edge of the map PLUS 5-6 spaces beyond the edge of the map.
