Also assign your miners the masonery skill, for faster brick-ups

Can flying FBs fly diagonally upwards though?

You guys are missing out on crundle killing awesomeness.

My fort is half powered by crundles. Delicious roasts, sharp bolts, and skull totems for trade.

Sometimes, you just want the free underground plants or to get to the magma.

One of the serious problems with constructed walls is that half the time the mason will wall themselves in and die of dehydration if you aren't paying close attention...

No.

There are ways around that:he suspended dummy wall being the easiest. Order walls to be constructed where you don't want your mason to be standing and suspend those walls. Then after the main wall is constructed, you can cancel those constructions. I can think of 3 other ways too but this method has been reliable for me.

Suspended wall trick works very well. Rarely do I have to resort to other techniques thanks to that.

You don't have to turn off all of the caverns.  You can set it to 1 cavern, and you'll still have most of the stuff it provides.  I say most because sometimes a cavern will be missing a plant or tree type, and with only one you won't get a second chance to get it.  But you will still have access to stuff that would only be on the 3rd level.  My fort has 1 cavern and it has everything except for tunnel tubes and black caps.  It will also make it a lot shallower, if that's a problem increase the size between layers.
