Are the days of 3+ wide hallways with doors to separate them into segments fubar?  since the release of the new version I have yet to be able to put 3 doors next to each other.

When I tried this, it seemed to work for a while...then someone came by and carted off the middle door to a furniture storage area.    :confused:

I'm just curious, why use doors on a 3-wide hallway? Personally, I just leave the interior open and guard the exterior accesses with a drawbridge and traps.

Also, I'm thinking of just making an empty moat instead of a water or lava filled moat. The only things that could get across are flying creatures who can also break down buildings.

doors block fluids, which prevent flooding of things you don't want flooded. Not actually as big a deal with this version I guess.

They also let you lock dwarves out of areas you don't want them to go. Restricting it just makes it 'cost' more to pathfind through it, but they will still go there if there is something they want inside.

then build the hallway 5 wide near the doorway, stick a rewall in the center, and dump two doors on either side. problem solved.
