::Your change mentions that “up stairs” will disappear. Do you mean the up part of the up/down stairs, the entire up/down stairs, or a carved up stair itself? I have only experienced this with up/down stairs myself, but haven’t actually tried with plain up stairs. My theory is that anything carved from the lower level of the glacier that breaks the surface of the stone will instantly melt into thin air. There are only two possibilities here, up/down stairs and down stairs. (You can carve down stairs from a natural wall, right? You don’t have to dig it out first? For some reason I can’t recall.) This would explain why carving ramps works, but if you were testing with plain up stairs, then my theory is no good. --[[User:Frewfrux|Frewfrux]] 00:24, 5 December 2009 (UTC) | ::Your change mentions that “up stairs” will disappear.

:::The "soil" oddity is actually a known bug, and it happens with any process that alters the floor type (removing a construction, building a paved road, or ''designating'' a farm plot) "001058 □ [dwarf mode][jobs][constructions] ([http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=29295.0 Report]) when a wall placed on stone is deconstructed on the lowest glacier level, you can get soil instead of stone". --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 00:53, 5 December 2009 (UTC) | :::The "soil" oddity is actually a known bug, and it happens with any process that alters the floor type (removing a construction, building a paved road, or ''designating'' a farm plot) "001058 □ [dwarf mode][jobs][constructions] ([http://www.bay12games.com/forum/index.php?topic=29295.0 Report]) when a wall placed on stone is deconstructed on the lowest glacier level, you can get soil instead of stone". --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 00:53, 5 December 2009 (UTC) | ||
