Flood washed away my workshop?
« on: November 24, 2006, 12:21:00 pm »

As my miner reached the river it flooded and forced all my dwarves outside. When it receded, my masons workshop had vanished.

I suppose its hardly going to ruin anyones game, but it seems a bit strange... I doubt its intended to happen, especially as I don't think my dwarves were underwater there - it was quite shallow

Floods destroy buildings up to a point.  It shouldn't destroy them at the shallowest, but other depths can destroy a building if they touch one of its squares.
