Vermin and fortifications
« on: April 07, 2012, 07:08:09 am »
Quick question: Can vermin pass through fortifications?
If yes: Do any of you have experience with indoor hives with fortifications to let the bees out?

Vermin teleport.  Fortification, solid walls, it doesn't matter.

A hive has to be placed adjacent to a tile that is marked 'outside'.

I'll go tell my hives that they don't have outdoors access then. They're roofed over and actually quite far from any fortifications but say they have outdoor access. Dumb bees.
