If a dwarf is asleep and is swept into an aquifer, s/he should wake up.

[peglegpengeuin]

The game doesn't already do that?

[FoiledFencer]

I'm pretty sure they do, actually. Can you describe the situation more specifically?

[FallingWhale]

No, they drown, it's hard to do without an double aquifer acting as a water source.

[IT 000]

I feel like there's a story behind this *pulls up a chair*

[Raddish]

Surely unless they have some swimming skill they are going to drown whether they wake up or not.

No better time to learn than when your burrow is turning into the new fortress cistern.

they will drownd, I had someone fall asleep in floor of hospital area. nothing wrong with him aside from being beak as hauler. The hospital had no window fitted due to McLazy not delivring it. The water from the fall rose a few Z due to first freeze and the first thing i know the hospital is now flooded to top and McDozygit keeps sleeping to death.

Water does not wake sleeping dwarfs, which is annoying.

My miner fell asleep on the lip of the aquifer after mining some out, while the water from the just-turned-off pumps were apparently still flowing. He got pushed in and did not wake up. He drowned.

Ramps help. I had ramps.
