Drawbacks[edit]
The concern about dwarves trying to path through one-way passages is valid - if I build a one-way ramp and make it lead to a dead-end, a single dwarf that ends up inside starts rapidly flashing with a blue question mark and drops the framerate significantly (on a 2x2 test embark, it dropped me to 50fps on a 2.4GHz Core 2 Quad). --Quietust 00:41, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
