::After several stupid mining errors ("Let's use the channel ramps to mine instead of digging out the topmost staircase and get stuck forever!") it appears that wells do indeed work for supplying dwarves water. However, I would like a recommendation that the hospital is put on the z-level as closest as possible to an underground pool if that is the water source. Dwarves take a fairly long time to get water when the distance the bucket must travel exceeds greater than 3 z-levels. Prep with multiple wells as well, of course, especially if you must place the well a long distance from the water source.--[[User:Ryun|Ryun]] 22:03, 13 April 2010 (UTC) | ::After several stupid mining errors ("Let's use the channel ramps to mine instead of digging out the topmost staircase and get stuck forever!") it appears that wells do indeed work for supplying dwarves water.

:::A well works fine. Sadly my dwarves don't use my bewdiful balineae right across from the hospital to fill buckets. Maybe because of all the soap in the water.

This was because my Chief Medical Dwarf's office overlapped the hospital. Once I deconstructed his office chair, dwarves came to fill the hospital chests with supplies.--[[Special:Contributions/208.81.12.34|208.81.12.34]] 14:03, 3 June 2010 (UTC) | This was because my Chief Medical Dwarf's office overlapped the hospital.

Jobs to give water and food were interspersed as needed, and I suspect the medical jobs were deferred at those times. |

This also helps with the soap bug if you make it so the soap is in the hospital, and the well is outside past a washing trench. A dwarf goes to the hospital to get soap, then cancels washing because she can't reach the area. But the dwarf has already been cleaned by walking through the washing trench, so at least they'll be happy and clean after that. | This also helps with the soap bug if you make it so the soap is in the hospital, and the well is outside past a washing trench.

Had my surgeon interrupt his surgery task a couple of times. The cause turned out to be people coming by and pulling the patient off the table with a "Recover Wounded" task.. right out from under the doctor's nose! Turning off the "recover wounded" labor on all the doctors and nurses and locking the hospital doors should solve that problem (uninstalling any tables may also, since it forces the doc to do the surgery with the patient still in bed), but still... all these hospital bugs-easily-surmountable-by-constant-unending-intensive-micromanagement-failing-which-dwarves-die are really starting to annoy me.. version is .31.16.
