Mysteriously trapped dwarf
« on: July 14, 2012, 08:32:26 am »

I know trapped dwarves aren't exactly new, but I can't see _how_ this dwarf is trapped. It looks like he should be able to just walk off with no problems.  Basically I've been paving / constructing a 3 tile wide road around the edge of the map and this guy is stuck on the bottom right corner on top of a hill. People can get to the next level down with no problems.

There are no usable ramps, so he can't get down.

P.S. If you don't get this note, let me know and I'll write you another.
It's amazing how dwarves can make a stack of bones completely waterproof and magmaproof.
It's amazing how they can make an entire floodgate out of the bones of 2 cats.

Eh? What makes the ramps unusable? [EDIT] Googles "unusable ramp". [/EDIT]

OK, I see. So it looks like it's impossible to include the top of that corner in my 3x3 road unless I mess around with faux-bridges to replace the walls I can't build there.

Now I'm wondering how much of my 'road' wagons would actually be able to travel along. :-(
