In illustration number nine, "Build the Well", where are the stairs that are in the previous illustrations? Is there a way to remove them?
Tapping a brook
As long as you're on the same z-level as the water, you never need to worry about flooding no matter what the source. So even a river can be tapped that way. Now, if you want/need to drop it a z-level or more then flooding can be a serious issue, even with a brook. --Squirrelloid 17:14, 30 December 2008 (EST)
