When building walls how do you....
« on: April 05, 2016, 06:32:42 pm »

WHen building walls using box mode Hollow mode how do i leave a space open for doors? It seems I can make a square wall to put around my stockpile but then I have to remove construction to remove 1 part of the wood wall to place a door. Any way to do this while I am planning the wood wall?

I'm not sure what you mean by box mode, it sounds like some feature of DFHack (or perhaps a vanilla feature I've missed). I think I can answer you, though: If you press 'q' to go into building select mode, and hover over a yet-to-be-completed wall, you can press 'x' to cancel the construction. This goes for anything that you have designated to be constructed, like furniture or floodgates.

you'll get it eventually. When I was learning I always physically wrote down the ones I kept looking up, and kept that paper next to my keyboard.
