40d Talk:Smoothing
Buildings
will they not smoth stone if there is a construction there? they havenst smoethed the stone that have traps, or doors on it --Corhen
- IIRC, placed traps do prevent smoothing but doors do not. I have a feeling that sometimes designating floor-smoothing under doors doesn't take (perhaps something to do with it's open/closed status at the time?), but it is certainly possible to do. --Raumkraut 06:56, 10 July 2008 (EDT)
Rubble
Does smoothing remove the rubble?GarrieIrons 02:06, 4 January 2008 (EST)
- No, dwarves don't clear the tile of any objects before smoothing it.--Maximus 02:25, 4 January 2008 (EST)
Trade depot
the trade depot article suggests smoothing stone for the human caravan is necessary - only inside i hope? Also, this article says nothing bout smoothing floor anyway - i would appreciate some info - is room value raised? --Koltom 01:30, 10 February 2008 (EST)
*gasp* I really hade to smooth pebbles boulders *outside* my fort to make room! Sending my poor defenseless dwarf far into hostile envronment.. --Koltom 22:54, 10 February 2008 (EST)
Just as a side note, you can also get past boulders by building a 1x1 tiled bridge. The wagon will go over it just fine. AlexFili 06:23, 9 May 2008 (EDT)
Which side?
Does smoothing a wall add value to the rooms on both sides, or just the side the engraver stood on while he was doing it? --Juckto 08:43, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
- All eight directions that do not cross Z levels. --GreyMario 11:47, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
Floor
Is there a way to smooth a floor?-Mhyder – unsigned comment by Mhyder
- Designate it to be smoothed --Juckto 18:54, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
Who Smooths
What job designation is smoother? Mason? Stonecrafting? Stoneworking? Schm0 17:23, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
- Stone Detailing, I believe --Tracker 17:44, 3 November 2007 (EDT)
Does it matter who smooths when it comes to value? What does smoothing do to value anyway? – unsigned comment by Seaneat
- Smoothing does add to value by a fixed amount I don't actually know (1 or more). It has no quality modifier, so it doesn't matter how skilled is your stone detailer (except that skilled dwarves work faster). --Aykavil 04:35, 10 July 2008 (EDT)
Selection Rectangle
I'm not sure when it got added, but selecting areas to be detailed now flash after being selected. I went ahead and removed the section mentioning that.--Xazak 16:54, 11 August 2008 (EDT)
Value and placed objects
If i'm making a room for my suckers dwarves and want it all pretty, like, does an engraved floor tile still up the value of the room if I place a table or cabinet on top of it? --Groveller 15:00, 13 August 2008 (EDT)
Pillar
Can water pass through a pillar? --MarauderIIC 00:45, 23 August 2008 (EDT)
- I don't see how. It's considered to be a full wall, so there's no gap created by a pillar spot. – unsigned comment by Kefkakrazy
- No, I was talking about a pillar. Since a pillar typically leaves space around it, I wasn't sure if it was actually considered a full wall. Thanks. MarauderIIC 21:33, 26 August 2008 (EDT)
Smoothing mud
I have a wide swath of unintentionally muddied floors. I cannot designate them for smoothing. Is mud only cleaned with smoothing if the muddy floor could be smoothed normally? HeWhoIsPale 12:57, 23 October 2008 (EDT)
- Yes, you can only ever smooth stone, never soil. Don't worry though, it eventually dries. Or you could build a floor over it. --RomeoFalling 19:46, 23 October 2008 (EDT)
