Damn those lampreys.
« on: October 29, 2007, 10:03:00 pm »
Dwarves wont work on my bridge over a canyon. They repeatedly give 'running away from lamprey' errors. The actual lampreys are about four stories BELOW the bridge. Shouldn't dwarves be a little more afraid of heights than the lampreys below them?

Damn you lampreys.

Have you ever SEEN a lamprey? I would stay off that bridge too if there was some down there.

Dwarves are thinking of things in the z-axis only as "x number of tiles away from me." I've noticed masons and craftsdwarves going the long route to the floor under them to get stone when there's a perfectly good piece of stone just 3 spaces away on the same floor.
