mist generator question
« on: February 05, 2020, 11:57:40 am »

im trying to make the mist generator on a 3 wide hallway; it has been a long time since I last played and amde a mist gen, but i cant recall how i widened the mist beyond 2 apart of a screw pump length.

I was hoping i could place a pipe section or that there might be some way of extending it far.

Mist should spread a couple tiles - easily enough to fill a 3 wide hallway. What do you mean 'widen the mist beyond 2'?

You can also check the wiki for a little help.

i want to put a mist generator at the entrance to my base so nothing nasty from the environment comes in; but i also want caravans to be able to make it inside.  so i need statues 3 apart instead of 2 spaces, which is how many it needs to be for screw pump. 

how can i make 1 system that will make mist in a given area that want mist generated further apart than 2 spaces.

also for the entrance to my hospital and then in the treatment area.

I think you need actual water to hit the dwarves if you want to disinfect. The mist clouds only give positive thoughts.

Why not put the shower after the trade depot?

I don't think it's been changed. Wiki doesn't mention the mist cleaning, but maybe it does.
