Smoke Will Choke
« on: May 12, 2008, 04:26:00 pm »

Notice how furnaces never produce somke, and that some produced underground disappears somehow. Because smoke likes to go up, some sort of chimney rising above a furnace would get rid of any smoke produced. The chimney could have a grate at the top. Also if a dwarf is exposed to too much smoke for too long, they may recieve nasty thoughts. Prolonged exposure may cause lung damage.

A fortress with smoke rising from it just seems a little more industrial.

Fire, dragons, demons, dwarfs in magma are possible candidates for smoke production.

It would pose some design challenges, espepecially if you hate the idea of have to put doors to a furnace room and a large chimney above it, but a feature like this would add a another problem that we all love to deal with.

y fortress is a truly horrible place to be. Imagine what other forts must be like if dwarves still imigrate there.
