Trees growing on top of statues
« on: December 20, 2010, 08:50:18 pm »
The wiki says that statues do not create invisible floors, but I put statues in the swimming pool and now I have trees growing on top of the statues.

I can't figure how to post pictures here, so I posted it in the XKCD Dwarf Fortress thread.

Is the statue built, or just lying there unbuilt?

Also, the tree seems to be growing in the same square as the statue, not one Z-level above it.

They are both built. One is a sculpture garden containing the other one. Yes, the query(k) shows them as occupying the same square with the statue, 3/7 water and a pile of mud. The trees appear on the Z-Level above where the query finds them.

its safe to assume that that tree isint going to mature until you remove the statue at which point the tree will spontaneously mature into a grown tree. stockpiles also do this kind of thing but if its really bugging you you could always build a floor over it or station a dwarf on it until it dies.
