I made some mockups of east-to-west pumps using Unicode characters, but we should really get some full-fledged graphical examples. --JT 07:47, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
Is it essential that the rear of the pump be adjacent to an open square over liquid? I need to do some tests of that, I had assumed from my testing it was sufficient to have the pump just over liquid (so for example, have the rear square on a ramp into a lake) Matryx 13:50, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
- The rear end doesnt need to be over an open space it can be pumped straight out onto the ground. Fixing that now.--Lucid 20:43, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
- Uh, I found that when building a screw pump on open ground, above a mined-out section filled with 7 waters ont he floor below, nothing pumped through until I dug an 'Open Space' next to the pump handle. --Sukasa 20:52, 31 October 2007 (EDT)
Is it possible to pump magma with a screw pump made of steel? Diabl0658 04:55, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
Has anyone confirmed the reynard diagram works? I was under the impression he meant it as conjecture VengefulDonut 14:10, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
- just tested it. its fine VengefulDonut 14:19, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
- In the reynard diagram tower are the fronts of the pump over the water on the square besides that?
Maybe this is helpful?
This is an example of a pump facing West in wonderful 3D.
A: A square below the level of the pump without a floor where water is pumped from
B: The point in which a dwarf operates the machine
C: The three points in which water is deposited. MikeWulf
- It's deposited only on the far C tile but leaks into the others from it VengefulDonut 09:27, 6 November 2007 (EST)
I can probably do a few of these for the digging article too if it is acceptable.
- What program did you use to make that graphic? I wouldn't be able to make something like this unless I had a laser pen or somethin'. Schm0 08:53, 5 November 2007 (EST)
- Just OpenCanvas with a graphic tablet. If the wiki wants uniform pictures I could probably do them.
After seeing the new quote on the main page and seeing the bottom of this article, I'm totally opening up a dwarven gym with pumps and, if I can figure out how to make them use it, a swimming pool. -EarthquakeDamage 20:46, 14 November 2007 (EST)
