Activity zones are areas in which dwarves are instructed to perform specific tasks. They are useful at forcing dwarves to perform actions where they are desirable, and can be placed in any unoccupied tile, including over the chasm or over a river. They are placed similarly to stockpiles, by selecting a rectangular area using enter from within the i:Zones menu. Unlike stockpiles, they are only visible while in the i:Zones menu. Once an activity zone is created, tasks can be assigned to it by hovering over it with the cursor while in the i:Zones menu.
