Dropping Items
« on: March 03, 2009, 12:46:45 am »
...down holes.  How does one go about accomplishing this?  I tried channeling a hole, then marking the open space as a dump.  i disable all the other dumps, and mark an item to be dropped.... and nothing ever happens.

Mark the open space and an adjacent walkable tile as a garbage dump.

My dumps don't use the actual tile that contains the channel.  I just put a single dump zone on an adjacent tile, and the dwarves stand on that tile and throw their garbage into the channel.  You want to put your dump zone NEXT TO the hole, not OVER the hole.
