::I haven't seen ramps support other ramps (and here we're talking about ramp-style support and collapse, not normal construction support and collapse). It is ''possible'' to carve out unsupported ramps. The way players are most likely to see is when you have a single standalone "pillar" wall that you carve as a ramp. This happens when designating a large area for ramp carving. You can also do it by constructing a wall next to a natural wall or ramp, carving out all other support for the ramp, then deconstructing a wall. | ::I haven't seen ramps support other ramps (and here we're talking about ramp-style support and collapse, not normal construction support and collapse).

::And yes a ramp without an adjacent wall is, as far as I know, totally pointless. Well, you can channel out the space directly above them from them, but you can do that with stairs too.

I predominantly have this issue when working outdoors. My working theory right now is that this occurs from trees and rocks becoming unsupported and falling a z-level. We will not discuss how many dwarves were slain to bring you this information. [[User:Doctorzuber|Doctorzuber]] 18:31, 31 March 2010 (UTC) |
