<p>Derg: /* Smoothing an area */</p> <hr /> <div>'''Smoothing''' natural [[wall]]s and [[floor]]s will increase the value of [[rooms]] and change their appearance to that of rooms with constructed walls and floors. It is done by [[dwarves]] with the [[Stone Detailing]] skill.<br /> A smooth surface is also needed if you wish to [[engrave]] to further increase the room's value, or to carve a [[Fortification|fortification]]. Smoothed walls look similar to manually constructed [[wall]]s and they join neatly with corners, t-junctions and straight bits. A single smoothed rock will appear as a pillar until joined to adjacent walls.<br /> <br /> == Smoothing an area ==<br /> <br /> # Press {{K|d}} to open the designate menu.<br /> # Press {{K|s}} to select &quot;Smooth Stone&quot;.<br /> # Move the cursor to a position on or near a wall and press {{K|enter}}.<br /> # The spot you marked changes to a blinking green &quot;+&quot; indicating where the area you wish to smooth extends from.<br /> # Move the cursor to any position, across the area you wish to smooth and then press {{K|enter}} again.<br /> # The wall tiles in the area you defined should blink with a white regular pattern.<br /> # Wait for a [[dwarf]] with the [[Stone Detailing]] skill to smooth the [[stone]] on the walls.<br /> <br /> == Note ==<br /> <br /> *You cannot smooth [[soil]], such as silt, clay, loam, peat or [[sand]]. However, unlike previous versions, metal [[ores]] and other [[Gem|valuable stones]] can be smoothed.<br /> *Smoothing a muddy floor will remove the [[mud]] - it is therefore a bad idea to smooth your [[underground]] [[farm]].<br /> *Smoothing a stone [[aquifer]] wall will cause it to stop leaking [[water]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Designations]]</div>
