This article is about an older version of DF.

A boulder is a Template:L that occurs randomly across the surface of the world. Boulders represent fragments of various Template:L types. They can impede the movement of wagons and get in the way of construction projects on land but can be walked over by Template:L and other Template:Ls. To remove a boulder, access the designations menu and smooth stone, click on the stone and an Template:L should come along to turn the boulder into a smooth rock Template:L. The resulting floor is the material of the boulder rather than the apparent surrounding material of the ground that the boulder was on.

If you wish to remove a boulder without creating a smoothed tile in its place, there is Template:L. Simply designate a wall to be constructed on top of the boulder. After it has been constructed, designate it to be removed. Due to a Template:L, when a dwarf removes the wall, the floor will be replaced by the dominant floor tile of the area (usually soil).
