Cave-ins No Longer Effective For FBs
« on: August 01, 2014, 06:45:29 pm »

Yes, they still kill them, but if you channel stuff out and it creates a path into your fort even up a sheer wall, they can and will climb straight in. This makes things so much harder now if you get one with deadly dust.

Guys I don't think we want to mess with using dwarves as fusion material here. Be careful.

I just block off the upper/falling portion area so there's no path in from the higher Z-Level.  I've been testing this all day today, and it seems to work ok, even for those made of 'amber' or similar non-organics.

Flying FB's/Titan's/etc in 34.11 would do the same thing, so it seems about the same, to me, in 40.0x.

I just make sure that there is no way for even a flying FB to get into my fort from the caves unless I want to let it in.
