:I don't see why you'd want a deep, single tile shaft. The deeper the well, the more likely it is to kill someone when they fall in. If you want a well to hold lots of water, it makes more sense to make it extremely wide, but not very deep, as dwarves who fall in would be barely effected by it, and it would take forever for that many tiles of 7/7 water to evaporate away. --Kydo 08:24, 27 January 2010 (UTC) | :I don't see why you'd want a deep, single tile shaft.

:I've got a particularly vertical map (something on the order of 50+/- levels!) so I'll give this some testing later and update this (within a week hopefully) if my tests conflict with my opinion that there's no limit. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 21:59, 3 May 2008 (EDT) | :I've got a particularly vertical map (something on the order of 50+/- levels!) so I'll give this some testing later and update this (within a week hopefully) if my tests conflict with my opinion that there's no limit. --[[User:N9103|Edward]] 21:59, 3 May 2008 (EDT) | ||

::If you can't get an artifact bucket, decorating the masterwork one with everything in sight will probably add another few million to the total. --[[User:LaVacaMorada|LaVacaMorada]] 07:48, 30 October 2009 (UTC) | ::If you can't get an artifact bucket, decorating the masterwork one with everything in sight will probably add another few million to the total. --[[User:LaVacaMorada|LaVacaMorada]] 07:48, 30 October 2009 (UTC) | ||
::The adamantine block was just to make the well light blue in color (the block determines the color of the well) - I could've used raw adamantine, but I also wanted to determine how many wafers are used to make a metal adamantine block (strangely, the answer is "4"). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:11, 30 October 2009 (UTC) | ::The adamantine block was just to make the well light blue in color (the block determines the color of the well) - I could've used raw adamantine, but I also wanted to determine how many wafers are used to make a metal adamantine block (strangely, the answer is "4"). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:11, 30 October 2009 (UTC) | ||
