Main / Carpentry / Wooden house

A wooden house (more accurately, a wooden building) is relatively easy and fast to build, it requires less skill and resources than a stone house, and offers basic protection from decay, theft, and invaders.

Notes

  • When building a wall, window, or door, the quality of the materials and the player's skills affect the initial quality of the piece built.

Method

Building

  1. Create a building plan for the future structure.
  2. Activate a mallet, right-click the wall plan, and select the desired wall type.
  3. With the mallet still activated, right-click the wall plan, and select "Continue building" until the wall, window, or door is finished.
  • The initial action consumes one large nails and one plank; each subsequent action consumes one plank from the player's inventory.
  • The nails and plank are consumed shortly after starting the action so do not move while building or the action will be aborted and the resource lost.
  • A building plan with no walls will decay in a few real-life days so make sure to start at least one wall.

Inner walls

To plan inner walls activate a mallet or trowel, right-click a tile border inside the house and select Plan > Inner wall. On the wall plan select a wall type and continue as explained above.

Note: Only the owner of the house writ can add inner walls, and it requires 30 Carpentry skill.

Tools required

Items required

Repairing and improving

  • Any damage must be repaired on the walls with a plank before improving it.
  • Activate a plank, right-click the wall, and select "Repair" or "Improve".
  • The effective quality of the plank is affected by its damage and the player's carpentry skill.
  • Any quality plank can be used to repair and improve a wall (which will improve by between around .04-1.5+ QL per plank--more research needed but a higher QL plank will yield more improved QL).
  • 1 plank of any QL will only repair 10 damage.
