I took some pictures of SG6's magma applications using StoneSense. Here's a crosspost for your convenience:

Scenes from SparkGear 6
Magma flood
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The pumps are represented by pairs of trees for some reason.
Power Conduits
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The conduits are filled with yellow boxes that represent axles and gears. These conduits pass power from the water wheel generator complex (currently frozen solid) to a pump stack that supplies magma to the magma flooder pictured above, and also to a water pump that seems to go nowhere.
Magma Death Road
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The road is partially visible in the previous picture. Enemies enter through a long ramp, and then get trapped when a magma reservoir is emptied on their heads. Ample drainage is provided.
Magma Showers
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
The magma conduit pictured feeds two separate magma showers. The one on the left is currently flooded. Unseen in this rendering, a donkey is burning to death inside. The three objects inside are steel chains. Animals can be chained to lure enemies into the showers, and the chains can also be defined as a prison, to allow for a simple execution chamber.

... what? it leaked...?

..........

oh, duh. goddamnit. i should've thought of THAT happening. ... wait, what?
### wall
#_# channel
#O   walkable part of pump
#X# unwalkable part of pump
#7# 7 depth magma
### wall

.... the whole thing's safely designed! i tried it with temperatures off... now let's see with it on...

no, it's not leaking.

...... well, some of the dorves involved with the obsidian factory accident has got magma covering all over them. and then with temperatures on, they are set on fire. and then they set other dwarves on fire. that's what's causing it to go sht.



.... heh, funny, the moat keeps melting and refreezing and then melting and refreezing again... any ideas for a degrinchinator trap, guys?

and hm, for flooring the river, imma try that i guess. in my copy. i'll tell you if that works.

There's a pump on level 3, right next to the water reservoir. Does anyone know what it's for?
Also, why is there a yellow liquid in level 12?

Yellow liquid = water on engraved muddy floor.

alienchickenpie: that one's used to drain the water in the obsidian factory. mainly used when i was trying to fix it. also, for failsafing purposes.

also, i tried flooring the river when it froze, on my own copy of sparkgear. it made the warmmaker work.

BUT! i can't find a way to floor over the southmost tile of the river. so, it won't flow in winter. just stay as a liquid, and drain away...

it'll melt when winter's over. and then you'd have to recarve it the next year...

I just realized, after adding the new body parts to the other races, that I have an entire squad of dwarves with a shield in each hand and swinging their axes with their penises. There's nightmare fuel for those goblins, in more ways than one.

The Hundred ruins. That game should include at least seven reclaims. Reclaimers are btw untrained civilians. (5. Don't charge the fucking orcs with untrained civilians. IT DOES NOT WORK. We know. We tried.)
