Once I breach a cavern, pretty much everything else in my fort that has soil starts growing cavernous plants; What's the deal?

[Quietust]

That's how the game works. In fact, that's how it's always worked...

[Splint]

Floor over the dirt walkways and problem solved.

Ever since soil started growing plants, at least.

[OtaconPliskin]

How can I capitalize the most on this? Theme parks? Waterslides?

[Splint]

Tree farm. Just carve out a place and leave it unfloored in the dirt layers. Trees of the caverns will grow in thier and so will shrubs you can have herbalists harvest.

Oh, and as pasture if you left grazers on.

Hm...I DID have a semi-vaultesque situation in my last fortress...Maybe I can use this to make a self contained fort for real.

Edit: Which reminds me, can I use a draw bridge to cover downward ramps or staircases to make an unbreakable vault door?

[Splint]

Don't quote me on it but I think you can. I know they become indestructible while raised, unless something noncreature falls on it which will basically make it explode into a cloud of it's parts. Or I'm thinking of roads on that.

I believe so.
