Dwarven bath question
« on: February 14, 2011, 07:56:09 pm »
Is this the actual set up for a dwarf bath. The wiki has me confused.

       or this?
Code: [Select]
___ __ ___DRRR
   \__/   KEY: W = z levels, C = channel, D=door, R =destination, r=up ramp from channeling, /= up ramp, \ is downramp, _ is path?

Should you fail to comply, strict !!disciplinary actions!! will be taken. Also, we feel we should remind you that one of the "criminals" on your list is the chief medical dwarf. If he ends up too badly injured to do his job, you will be fired. Out of a magma cannon.

Yes. The first one or the second one is the actual set up for a dwarf bath.

Or, perhaps more helpfully: both will work. The former is more compact, of course, and will take less water to fill, but the second will work as well. In addition, depending on how your layout and water sources are, it might be easier to fill a bigger bath to 2/7 depth than a smaller one, since you can do a big one with levers and floodgates while a smaller one would probably have to rely on bucket brigades.
