random cave in bug when diggin ramps
« on: February 12, 2008, 04:37:00 am »

hi!

if i have to flat some land, i usualy use raps as channaling larger areas tend to get my miners stuck on isolated squares.
in most tiems, everything works fine, but sometimes, this ramping produces lots of  caveins, killing my miners. i m sure that there was nothing on the z-level above exept of floor.

however, i think i know now what triggers these cave ins and how to work around:

these cave ins only seem to occour when i ramp out a area that have been asigned to be digged out bevore and this designations had been canceled (d-x).
when assigning these pre-canceled areas to be digged, channals and ramps produce cave ins.

once i found this out,this bug isnt serious anymore, but its been verry verry annoying until than.
