Smoothed Ramps

Ramps should be smoothable. When a ramp is smoothed it should be made into stairs. But only if the ramp if rock.

You can already make stairs though.

One thing, I don't like using construted anything, because it shows up as a discrepancy in Viusual Fortress... Not a big problem, but it annoyed me when I had to build ramps to fill in holes in my ziggaraut. But anyway, I think that ramps should be smoothable... but for asthetic value.

Yeah, he's a banned spammer. Normally we'd delete this thread too, but people were having too much fun with it by the time we got here.

I suggest that smoothing a ramp turns it into a smoothed ramp, rather than stairs.

The resulting party killed 20 dwarves, crippled 2 more and the remaining 9 managed to get along and have a nice party.

Aren't ramps smooth to begin with?

I suspect the value calculations will not support that.

that is, I expect that value of a ramp is that of unsmoothed, rather than of smoothed.
