| Summary | 0002982: Dirt caving in on supports will float when the supports are removed |
| Description | I was setting up my fortress in a way in which I could use a lever to cause a cave in which was severe enough to completely block of my entrance, so I made a simple set up to see if it would work. I caused a 2 x 2 area of rock to cave in on four supports directly under this rock. When I removed the supports, the rock on top of it did not fall, but it floated in the air. I redid this a few times and it always happened this way. |
| Steps To Reproduce | On level -5 I dug out a 2 x 2 room which would be blocked off by the cave in. On the four tiles of this room I built four supports which would catch the initial cave in so that I could cause another one by removing the supports at the pull of a lever. Directly above that on level -4 I dug out another 2 x 2 room. The floor of this room would be hit by the cave in from above and fall with it onto the supports in the room on level -5. Above this room on level -3 I dug a square channel leaving a 2 x 2 section on this center which would be the part that would cave in. Above this on level -2 I again dug a square channel to prepare the cave in. Above this on level -1 I again dug a square channel and inside the square channel I dug out the 2 x 2 section to separate it from the cavern causing it to cave in. It would normally have fallen to the room on level -5 but since I had supports there, it fell on top of the supports and remained on level -4, leaving the supports fully functional. When I pulled a lever to remove all of the supports, the 2 x 2 section of rock remained floating on level -4, although it was completely disconnected from the rest of the cavern. |
