Marks every item and building in the selected area as forbidden. Forbidden objects are completely ignored by dwarves and do not contribute to fortress value.
Uses for forbid include:
- Preventing dwarves from trying to retrieve items from an area controlled by hostile monsters
- Forcing dwarves to use specific materials, for example when satisfying a mandate or demand
- Preventing dwarves from moving items that are on fire
Items are automatically marked "Forbidden" when
- reclaiming a fortress.
- they have been dumped in a garbage zone.
- you begin a game in a town – all items in the town are initially forbidden.
- a crossbow bolt is fired and drops on the ground intact.
The opposite of forbid is claim, which removes the forbidden status of items.
