I wanted CHAIRS in the dining room, not FLOODGATES!!!

...Yeah, so I see a dwarf hauling a floodgate through the dining room, and wondering why, I follow him, only to discover the dwarves are building a row of floodgates next to the row of tables, right where the chairs were supposed to go >.>

It's almost like your dwarves have no faith in your waterworks. =P The halls will run red with dwarven wine!

That's odd. Did you hit the wrong button or something when you designated the chairs?

Better yet, the floodgates are in the middle of the room - no walls nearby!

I remember someone had a similar problem with bituminous coal being recognized as gems. That was caused (I think) by a bad install. I suggest you reinstall DF.

the spinning bb round hits jack johnson, scumbag in the lower body!
it is pierced through entirely!
his right kidney has been poked out!
his liver has been mangled!
jack johnson, raider has been shot and killed.
The above (including bbcode) neatly weighs in at 255 characters. Fallout meets DF
