"Drinking from a murky pool will give dwarves an unhappy thought."
But drinking from a well that is fed by a murky pool via a channel is okay?
Yes it works exactly like that. Bouchart 17:13, 12 February 2008 (EST)
- Water will still be stagnant. Dunno if this does something. --Someone-else 21:19, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
"Murky pool can (will?) completely drain in summer."
This detail needs clarification. According to my experience, it varies by the temperature of the region; I believe spading is in order. Eurytus 9:58, 2 April 2008 (EST)
Can a murky pool be re-designated?
I accidentally dug into the bottom of an outdoor pool (darn diagonals) and the pool drained into my silt/loam farming rooms. After the water dried out (adding a muddy element to my farms) I was left with the murky pool. Can't build a farm plot on it. Before removing it, I was wondering if I covered it by adding floor above it, could it be used somehow when it changes from outdoor to inside?--Gemmy 15:06, 2 May 2008 (EDT)
- Seems it would be quite possible. Feel free to try it and report your results. --Edward 21:51, 3 May 2008 (EDT)
- Just farm aboveground plants. Many of them are better than underground ones in many ways. --Someone-else 21:21, 4 May 2008 (EDT)
The information here may be outdated. With an unmodified version of v0.28.181.40d I was able to channel out the tiles in a murky pool after draining it. Can anyone else try this and confirm? Forsaken1111 22:16, 16 October 2008 (EDT)
Refilling
I have seen murky pools refilled by rain, sometimes all the way, sometimes partially, sometimes not at all. I believe it has to do with the amount of rain versus the ambient temperature (and therefore evaporation rate). --Pavlov 15:58, 24 October 2008 (EDT)
- Yeah, pools definitely refill after the rains. I've been using a conveinent murky pool as a flood reservoir for defense. Every spring, it refills just fine. --ThunderClaw 16:02, 24 October 2008 (EDT)
- My current fort's on a hot map, so my pools never fill beyond a mix of 1/7 and 2/7 during the rains. Got a brook, though, so I ignore them anyway.--Maximus 17:39, 24 October 2008 (EDT)
Removing
Contrary to what the article says, it doesn't seem possible to build a dirt road on pool tiles. Building/removing a paved road works fine though. --Aykavil 14:53, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
