Way to Demolish Stairs and the Floor Tile it Creates?

[☥⛧small titty goth joyfriend]

I've finally found a sledge, and am trying to destroy the stairs I had to use to make a roof, just for it to not also get rid of the little wooden floor the stairs create with it. It also will not allow me to actually demolish the floor tile itself. There are so many little annoyances like this that make something that should be very easy a massive pain in the ass.

Yup, we need ladders so we can fall off them while building a roof.

You can find a way around it by building the stairs 1 tile away from the actual roof.
So you build the stairs, then you build 1 floor tile to reach the roof and when done, you destroy that one floor tile and the stairs. The stair floor tile gets destroyed if its not connected to anything.

Got it. Unfortunately, I've already built it. I'm thinking however, when I hop back on, if I go up and destroy the floor tiles around the stair's floor tile, and then the walls next to it, it'll perhaps disappear when I demolish the stairs, and then I can use the method you stated. Albeit, it will be extremely wasteful with resources, but that's not a huge issue. Thanks for the help.

UPDATE: Worked perfectly, didn't even need to remove the walls, just the surrounding floor tiles, thank you very much.

No, we need the ability to construct scaffolding, which is based off metalworking skill.

A higher metalworking skill makes the scaffolding more resistant to being pushed over by a gust of wind.
