Roofs

[Finn]

I'm trying not to be dependent on steam geysers, because i'm one of those people who build into cliffs and become a colony and dwarves, but my whole goal is defeated when my single steam geyser becomes inundated with the amount of electricity I need and I have to place solar panels outside which screams "raid me.". But if I attempt to build a box around them for defense, a roof goes over the top which I DON'T WANT because it makes the solar panels useless, and to my knowledge there is no way to remove roofs inside the cliffs.
So can anyone help me/tell me how to remove roofs or stop roofs being put over?
Thanks,

Build a small base outside with no doors execpt into your main part of the colony(In the cliffs).
Just a small outpost will do, ofcourse make it so that you can defend from it. That's what I do.

Roofing us in the process of being changed.
At the moment if a area or room gets closed of by walls mountain and or without a door it roofs the area.

In the future this can be turned off.
