it just led to another cavern

ohyay now i get to repeat the process of killing the locals

midway down it leads to 3 levels of small peculiar shaped caverns, sorta like in those curious structures when you go deeper into the building, twists and turns and corridors in a 15X15 area and another ramp down again
Waaaait.
What?
Are you sure there isn't any HFS around?

Screenshots, preferably save as well. Four Queries. First, are all the caverns flooded? Second, Does the water go all the way down to the magma sea? Third, are there any exposed aquifers? And Fourth, How much water is there?

While adding magma to anything will make it dwarfy, adding the word "magma" to your post does not necessarily make it funny.

You should mine rooms out of the pillars of stone and create terraces between them.

The downward passages are fairly common. Probably at least one per area but maybe several. They always just lead down in a fairly inconvenient manner and leave you at that small risk of visitors from below crawling up through it. Sometimes they don't quite manage to connect to the next floor with a walkable path but overall they are fairly good about it. I've never seen one that caused an underground sea type layer to drain into another layer so they probably stay about and out of the water as well.

2 topics in 1 thread... ah DF...

wait, does the downward passage actually lead from the sea to another one? or 2 other layers?
also, is the lower "cavern layer" made of smooth slade by any chance? anyways the submarine idea is good, but since you seem to have connections to outside the map the water will pour in infinitely. I suggest you find some way of casting obsidian walls around the edge (and finishing walling off with the help of a burning lingite/bit. coal bin). Then pump the water to the surface, into a giant reservoir is the best idea (water for numerous water traps? check.) and build the sub out of gold. then breach the walls (note: double-wall and bridges)


OH, BTW turn invaders off until you finish the megaproject and said water-based defenses
PLZ post this file.
have fun  ;)
