Summary	0002473: Dwarves will walk across unbuilt/not-yet-constructed floors

Revision	2010-06-25 21:42 by Footkerchief
Description	As a part of my attempt to exterminate any elves that come near my fort, I surrounded my trade depot with walls, and rigged up an automated 'lock the elves in then drown them' system. After testing this, I found that because of the climate, the flooded area would freeze before I had a chance to drain it to retrieve the elf-loot. So I set some dwarves to build a roof over the area with floor tiles (b-C-f). While watching them build, I noticed the masons pathing across about 20-25 squares of un-built floor tiles to start constructing on the opposite side. In short: Dwarves observed pathing across floor tiles that do not yet exist in order to construct other tiles.
