This will carve an upward stairway into a wall. Unlike a downward stairway, this cannot be designated on a floor and it must be a wall. Smoothed or engraved works fine. If no wall is present it can be built using the build interface (bCu).
Carving Upward Stairs
- Press d to open the designate menu.
- Press u to select "Upward Stairs".
- Move the cursor to a position on or near a wall and press enter.
- The spot you marked changes to a blinking green "+" indicating where the area you wish to start carving stairs.
- Move the cursor to any position, across the area you wish to carve upward stairs and then press enter again. This area must be a non-built wall. Any area of floor, construction will not be selected.
- The wall tiles in the area you defined should blink similar to mining but with a "<" pattern.
- Wait for a dwarf to do the job. You will need to designate/build a downward stairway for each upward stairway.
