construct to not construct.
« on: May 13, 2008, 07:35:00 am »
is there a way to turn all constructed objects on a map into world objekts.

What i am thinking is, is there a way to turned a built wall into a smooth wall så it can be engraved? I guess i am talking about some kind of tool.

I wish stone blocks could be engraved and then become an engraved wall if used to build one.

Other than that wish, I can only suggest some of the tools used by some, maybe they can modify objects other than creatures too.
look in the wiki - main page : metagaming & advice : utilities.

As far as I know, constructed walls can't be engraved. If Toady puts in the option to put ground rock on the wall to smooth it and then engrave it, all of our lives' problems would be fixed.
