Ya you can dig down using ramps. Way safer, less caveins, accidents, and other dorf stupidness, and it saves a heck of a lot of time and effort, no more designating sections one trench at a time (like when digging out a 16+z level 16x16 cistern for example). My master fort has its main entrance dug out the side of a large mountain. would have been a designating nightmare if i had tried to do it by hand.

No need for a downward ramp though really since it works fine the way it is.

I am back to the old version for a while now, just too buggy and many of my favorite tools don't work.


Btw anyone think that the creator of this game is seriously obsessive compulsive. The amount of imho stupid things the game keeps track of is beyond crazy (and is a waste of processing power). I really wish he would work more on the core game play and less on this fiddly stuff like tracking how many toes a dwarf has, and which ones are caked in blood, vomit, and mud.
