Possibly bugs? (0.43.03.)
« on: May 29, 2016, 08:04:58 pm »

I just have my wall toppled by a troll. It shouldn't happen, should it?

Also, on a probably unrelated subject. I'm trying to wall off my cavern and now I have only one tile to close. For some reason approximately twice a day through the tile comes a new creature and it's always a new species. When I started walling there were one or two animals in the cavern and they didn't start coming so fast before very end. I never had such an animalflood before.

The fortresses are penal colonies.
The mountainhome has far too many degenerates too deal with by itself, so it sends out minor nobles to establish penal colonies across the world.

I don't think it is a bug, but a new feature.  I believe they were always supposed to be able to topple those things, but never did.

I had a wereboar topple a constructed floor outside (not a road).

Unsure about your animal flood situation, perhaps upload a save here and let people take a look at it.

I've had several cases where creatures (mostly trolls) have toppled walls. HOWEVER, in all of those cases the walls were only partially built, as I'd withdrawn the builders due to the presence of dangerous critters.

That's probably it. Thanks.

Constructions which have not yet been completed are technically Buildings, which permits them to be toppled by building destroyers. Once they are completed, they become map tiles, which are effectively indestructible.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.
