I've got to go make deal and do some other work, so someone feel free to take this and finish/clean up for posting in the article. Renditelitan 22:49, 29 October 2007 (EDT)

Building skill

Question: What skill does constructing buildings use? Does it depend on the materials?

Almost all constructions don't actually use a skill (Carpenter, Mason, etc), but only require a dwarf with the appropriate labor enabled. It depends on the building. Beds, doors, statues, tables, chairs, and the like require the "furniture hauling" labor. For workshops, bridges, etc, it's based on what material you use to build it, so they usually require the carpentry, masonry, or metalsmithing labors. Some buildings must also be designed before they can be constructed (which requires the architecture labor, and uses the building designer skill). --Marble Dice 17:59, 2 June 2008 (EDT)
