Menacing spike traps
« on: August 30, 2011, 07:02:07 pm »
So...they need to be attached to a lever or pressure plate to work? I'd feel kind of silly putting about 120 spike traps at the front of my fortress if that's the case.

Yes.  Menacing spikes don't do much unless they are driven by a trigger (pressure plate or lever).

I think they do falling damage though, so maybe you could rig some kinda pitfall trap.
