Fenceskull at its height. See previous upload for most POIs; only new stuff is here (new stuff=drains for the water gate, the water lock in the tombs, and some HFS stuff).
This all-green-glass structure (save the foundation, mechanical parts and some copper pieces) brings massive amounts of water above the highest point in the entrance path. There, I can direct it either way, using a wall of water to either flush down (and hopefully bunch up) units coming up the ramp or to flush in, trapping anything in the dome and moving items onto bridges. The drainage system has been functional so far, although I have to be careful using anything here during the fall--if water freezes on the interior road it can cause a cave-in.

That's a cool dome, what use is th spiral staircase up the middle?

That will be my entrance road, designed to both efficiently kill invaders and to use gravity to bring their gear to the trade depot's doorstep.

Your dome is definitely not half done yet. Interesting Idea though.

How did the entrance work for you?
Sucks about the stuck guy, seems like a bummer. Maybe revert to a save before it happened?

I actually haven't gotten an invasion (due to the bug, mostly) since the entrance ramp was fully closed off. Before that I was having some trouble with ranged enemies sniping my staircases. Otherwise, though, it works great; I have huge piles of gear on a number of those bridges, ready to be dropped.
Also, trying out the new image tags:

Its turned out to be a fantastic dome, and living area by the looks of things. You don't see buildings like that on this world very often (can't think of any), really cool stuff.
