those 2 sqaures the blue ones.... have bout 7 *insertname*man in there each......fail....epic fail....thats not an underground pool....

[JoRo]

Your misfortune makes me laugh.  On the plus side, with some channeling and cage traps you could potentially capture the whole population in there.

[Dadamh]

That's what you get for cheating.

But yeah, those pools are fun!  Release the monsters and storm them with untrained recruits!

[ikkonoishi]

So the rest of the pools aren't above them? Usually those two tiles show up on the bottom of the pool. I will usually mine into them and drain the water out through a row of cage traps into my own cistern.

[Ezuku]

You have my sympathy, although I must confess laughing out loud at your misfortune.

I don't get what's the dude's misfortune, or how those things even got in there, whatever they are.

 I believe large pools of underground water are preferable. That, and all the normal beasties are concentrated to those two tiles.

 And they got there though quite a bit of misfortune.
 

[E-mouse]

I wonder if you can kill the critters in the pools by dumping rocks on them.

If you look at that mica deposit, it's got a chunk out of it...that's what should be the dimension of the pool. Because he used reveal, it broke, and he only gets a little tiny pool.

Surely that's wrong.  I don't know if Tweak works differently from reveal.exe, but the few times I tried using Tweak's tile revealer, underground pools appeared just fine.  They're made at embark (or maybe even worldgen) not when revealed.  I think this was a generation bug.

1 Z level above this is a sandy dried up pool.... looks like what a underground pool should be.....but it has no water and its awkward....

[Pilsu]

Well that's strange. Does it leak somewhere?

They're made at worldgen.  Sometimes you can find pre-exposed underground pools, if you're lucky.

[Blacken]

I had an underground pool, many versions ago, that was actually exposed to the surface, with a roof over it like a little grotto. That was awesome...because the magma vent was in the next local-square over.

[Skizelo]

It makes me angry that you can have pre-exposed underground pools.
It's almost as infuriating as that shampoo which advertised "visibly healthier-looking hair".
