Marksdwarves patrolling the wrong area
« on: June 19, 2013, 01:55:02 am »

I've set my two squads of marksdwarves to patrol my outer walls. They're patrolling it, but 2 or 3 marksdwarves patrol outside the wall, on the ground. And way to fix this? The route was placed on the walkways on the wall.

The way I got around this was to make towers 2-levels high connected by the 1-level high walkways I wanted to patrol.  The patrol end points were at the top of the towers and the marksdwarves started to patrol without ever dropping below the walkways again :D.
