lever will not open floodgates
« on: April 22, 2007, 04:30:00 pm »
I linked a lever to two floodgates which were down river. There are two identicle systems like this. On the first one, the floodgates open when the lever is pulled. On the second one, the floodgates don't move at all. The mechanics definitely finished the job. I can't get it to work.

If you try to link the second lever again, does it let you?  Or does it exclude the floodgate from the list of linkable buildings?  That should give some window on what the game thinks the situation is.

Yeah, it still lets me link them. It might also let me link other floodgates which are already linked as well, unless it is supposed to be like that. Currently I can't check because I'm not at home. I told a dwarf to link the floodgates again and he's doing it.
