Note that fliers can diagonally bypass a fortification if the tile above the fortification doesn't have a floor.Įnemy archers may also fire back through your fortifications. This is generally sound advice as dwarves don't like rain anyway and strange accidents can cause the weirdest things to fall from above. If there is open space above your defense positions, you can either carve them out of walls in the first place or build floor tiles on the Z-level above as a roof against fliers. Just like with the original wall, this floor is not a "construction", even if it's "Gabbro block floor", thus other constructions can be readily placed on top of a carved fortification.įlying creatures can of course fly over fortifications (but not through). Fortifications carved out of a wall (whether natural or constructed) are covered - they retain most properties of the original wall, including a floor one level above.This lets water, items and some critters in, until and unless a floor or something else is built one Z-level above, just like over any other empty space.
Fortifications constructed as such are open on top - they do not provide a floor for the tile above.Constructed fortifications must be built by a dwarf with a corresponding labor to the material used. Note that constructed fortifications do not create walkable floors above them, while carved fortifications do.Ĭarved fortifications must be carved by a dwarf with the Stone detailing labor enabled. As with most buildings, this will require one unit of wood, stone, metal, or glass. The second way is through the construction menu: First press b, then C followed by Fortifications. Firstly, they can be carved from constructed walls or smoothed natural walls by pressing designation and then Carve Fortifications. Possibly.įortifications can be built one of two ways.
