With the new, wagon trap traveling restriction(WTTR), could it be possible to make DF fortress play delay the decision to bypass our fortress a few hundred milsecs, instead of the way it is now, an instantaneously decision?  This would be a boon to my play style, and a helper, in order for any player to lower his/her drawbridge, in preparation for a caravan wagon trader visit?  Caravan wagon traders do have scouts, and scouts do travel up to fortresses, from time to time, and shout verbatim up the walls.  Isn't that, shouting up at arrow slits, windows, and peek-a-boo holes, how Princess Brides with long braided hair-dos are found?  So my thinking is why couldn't a little bit of interaction be included during the pause, prior to the pause, or just plain after the pause, but before the wagons leave, to lower a gate or two, to make a Depot affordable?  Thanks, Knutor

I really support this idea.

One possibility would be that, when the caravan arrives and the wagons don't have any access to depot, the player would get a message and a question whether the wagons should wait for the access to become available or just turn away and leave the area. This way the player would have enough time to lower the bridge or even cut down some nasty trees that are suddenly blocking the route to the depot.
