[40d] Floors cannot hang from bridges
« on: April 02, 2009, 06:44:32 am »
You can build a floor hanging off nothing but a bridge, but once the floor is completed it collapses and pulls the constructor with it. Poor mason, broke half his body.
Searched the entire buglist for anything floor-related, couldn't find this in the list.

It's not a bug- though it shouldn't let you place constructions where they might collapse.

So the collapsing thing was intended, the fact that you ordered the construction was a bug. And it is known.

Yup.

ah, should've tried other words than "floor" when searching.
