− | When water freezes or thaws | + | When water freezes or thaws it does so instantly, therefore, any dwarf [[swimming]] in water when it freezes will die, or standing on a frozen pond when it thaws, will fall into it... most likely leading to [[swimmer#Drowning|drowning]] if the dwarf is not an experienced [[swimmer]]. When ice walls thaw, they always leave a 7/7 water tile regardless of how much water may have been present when the ice formed. |
