Rewall/floor + masonry skill
« on: November 06, 2007, 01:59:00 pm »

Rewall / Refloor requires masonry skill, yet, does not grant any masonry experience for doing it.

Relatively minor issue, compared to the crashes + slowdowns, but I figured I'd bring it up.

Most tasks don't require experience to be done. Experienced workers do the work faster, though.

Making walls and floors seem more like activities that real masons would do, not make rock blocks.

Speaking of which... is there any use for rock blocks anymore besides taking up less space (you can put them in the bin)? I'd think a "Stonecutter" would be best at making blocks.

This is a fox skull helmet. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It menaces with spikes of fox bone and is encircled with bands of fox leather. This item is haunted by the ghost of Alfador Angrorung the fox.

Yeah, I definitely agree on this one. Making walls, floors etc and generally construct things like that out of stone is what masons do. In any case, this should IMO give experience, even if it's a tiny amount for each wall/floor/stairs.

On top of that the speed of which this is done needs to be redone as well. Poor skilled masons are currently able to build walls/floors/stairs etc at a master's speed which kinda makes little sense considering that everything else is kinda based on skill.
