whole map inaccessible to wagons?
« on: January 11, 2021, 12:40:52 pm »
Im on a waterfall volcano embark and every caravan says wagons bypassed my inaccessible site; when i check the entire map except by where my depot is in my tunnel is inaccessible.

any way to fix this/build a stairway for them?  could it be the major river? why is the entire map inaccessible?

Wagons can use ramps (within generous constraints) but not stairs, can be stopped in an 'obviously' accessible three-tile-wide route by an unsmoothed boulder and won't go over traps you may have laid to (try to) protect the entryway concerned.

Go to your depot and work outwards from there to see where inaccessability 'stops'. If you still can't spot the feature(s) yourself, a screenshot of the spot where the accessibility ceases (possibly right next to the depot) will doubtless give us that extra insight.

Note that wagon accessibility checks work from the trade depot out, not the map edge in.

(Ahhh... There were two threads about this. I wasn't going crazy.)
