v0.31:Revealed tile
| This article is about an older version of DF. |
A revealed tile, in Template:L, is any tile that has a description when looked at.
All Template:L tiles on the map start out revealed, as do all tiles above the surface. All Template:L tiles must be revealed by Template:L into them. All tiles adjacent to a revealed tile will also be revealed: you can see what the rock walls adjacent to a mined-out tile are made of, for instance, and you can see the outermost tile of each z-level of a mountain. You can also see the tile immediately below where a downward or up/down Template:L has been placed -- this is because building (or digging) the stairway removes the Template:L between the levels. Upward stairways do not reveal the level above, because they do not remove the floor/ceiling above the stairs.
Underground features like Template:Ls and Template:Ls start out hidden and must be discovered by miners. Upon breaching a feature, a message will be displayed informing the player of the discovery, and a chunk of the new feature "within view" of your dwarves will be revealed. See the Methods of exploration section of the Template:Ls article for information on safely revealing more of the underground.
