Probably too dim to learn how to play Dwarf Fortress

If you own it press v and go over it... then i think its like x or s

Jess, there needs to be stairs under the original staircase for them to go down.

Are there any good tilesets for the new game? If I can get one I'll learn to play so I know what stuff is.

I give up with stairs.


I've tried placing down stairs.. then going a level bellow and mining the area out - NOTHING.

Tried up and downstairs. once again nothing.

They wont even mine out the bottom from the bottom!

Someone care to tell me step by step how to do it!!
