Can anything destroy supports?
« on: April 01, 2012, 04:49:14 am »

I want a fortress on stilts, but I don't know if building destroyers can break them.

BDs can't.  Very hot creatures (flame titans) probably can, if you have temperature on.

He he he.  Yeah, it almost looks done...  alas...  those who are in your teens, hold on until your twenties...  those in your twenties, your thirties...  others, cling to life as you are able...<P>It should be pretty fun though.

As long as you connect every support to an unlabeled lever in your meeting zone, you should be fine :)

To clarify. Building Destroyers won't because they were being used for cave-in traps and Toady changed the program. Anything made of fire can do so.

I am fairly certain that dragon fire will still destroy supports.

Any intelligent fool can make things bigger and more complex... It takes a touch of genius --- and a lot of courage to move in the opposite direction.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.
