Removing dirt roads?
« on: May 06, 2013, 12:45:52 pm »
I just built a dirt road, and the road's tiles are now "furrowed".  Is there a way to remove these dirt roads?  I understand that they wear away over time anyway...

A dirt road is a path worn into the dirt, not an actual structure. It'll grow over on it's own or you can build over it. I sometimes use dirt roads to clear vegetation for above-ground farming.

To add to MrSparky's response.
Building a "dirt road" just remove the grass and shrub from the area, it doesn't actually build anything.
Think of it as a manual "cleaning" action against grass and shrubs.

One of the toads decided to go for a swim in the moat - presumably because he could path through the moat to my dwarves. He is not charging in, just loitering in the moat.

The toad is having a nice relaxing swim.
The goblin mounted on his back, however, is drowning.
