== Cave-in sand == | == Cave-in sand == | ||
I created a cave-in to get a terrain tile of sand to level -100 (or so), to set up an efficient glass making operation using magma furnaces. When the sand tile reached the bottom floor, it turned into sandy clay (or loamy sand or something, I don't really remember) and couldn't be used for sand gathering. Should I add this to the article or should I wait for someone to confirm this? I couldn't find a page that details the correct etiquette on this wiki. /[[User:Josj|Josj]] 13:02, 26 April 2010 (UTC) | I created a cave-in to get a terrain tile of sand to level -100 (or so), to set up an efficient glass making operation using magma furnaces.

::Yes, definitely. I had a setup that had Z+1 level with a bunch of floors, supported by a support that was linked to a lever. When I pulled the lever, the floors collapsed on a party of orcs. (I think, I was using the orc mod). I had forgotten that Z-1 was mined out, so when the support was pulled, the Z=0 floor collapsed down to Z-1. The reason I remember was because all of a sudden I had 10 orcs in the middle of my fort!--[[User:Kwieland|Kwieland]] 15:00, 2 September 2010 (UTC) | ::Yes, definitely.

:::Are you certain that '''all''' of the orcs were '''directly''' beneath the cave-in? Any that were off to the side could have easily been sucked down by the dust cloud. I ask because I've used constructed floor cave-ins in Arena mode (by using wall cave-ins to destroy the bridge above the upper-right area) and they instantly kill '''everything''', including bronze colossuses wearing full suits of adamantine armor (and even a squad of one hundred trolls, likewise wearing adamantine). --[[User:Quietust|Quietust]] 16:12, 2 September 2010 (UTC) | :::Are you certain that '''all''' of the orcs were '''directly''' beneath the cave-in?

− | ::::Yeah, it was a single squad, and they were all below it when it was triggered (I had them boxed in, there wasn't anywhere else they could go. | + | ::::Yeah, it was a single squad, and they were all below it when it was triggered (I had them boxed in, there wasn't anywhere else they could go. The floor that caved in was just constructed floor tiles, though, if you think that matters. Does multiple Z levels matter? The floor that they were on collapsed down as well. Maybe I'll have to see if I can reproduce it. If you want to change the page around, go for it. It seems like my experience is an isolated thing. It also doesn't seem likely to be a 40d 2010 difference.--[[User:Kwieland|Kwieland]] 17:37, 8 September 2010 (UTC) |

So, when you remove the support, both constructions fall down. But 1st falls several floors down (5 at the picture), while 2nd falls only 1 floor down and then it's pillar collides with bottom. Is there any difference in resulting damage made to poor invaders? The second one can be constructed much faster.
