I want the living quarters of my newest fort to be like that, does anyone have an enlarged or gridded version of this?

Looks nice, but it is very 2D, stairs need to be added...

Build a grid of floor grates above the entire city. Draft a squadron of masons and bomb the crap out of the city with falling constructed walls.

It's pretty, but it looks like a pathfinding quagmire.  All those twisty spiral paths and dead ends!

The history of a good fortress is not written in blood, it's painted on the walls by the hand of a melancholy orphan.

I bet with QuickFort, this is possible.

I tried doing that exact setup once. I think it's called the hactar Mandelbro tree, or something. I think my miners got around halfway done before something bad happened to my game. I can't remember whether it crashed or got seiged, though...

That didn't last long, huh? Shame, cause binary's cool. Anyway, an important message: I will be changing my names on every username based thing I use to ASCIt on/around 10/1. Consolidating, I guess you could say.
