Building & bases

Plan a supported shell, understand what owns it, and use the current catalog values before committing valuable materials.

Build from support upward

Foundations establish a base. Pillars define its supported corners; walls, openings, and ceilings then resolve against those sockets. A ceiling needs all four matching corner pillars before it can be accepted.

Foundation→Pillars→Walls / openings→Ceiling→Deployables
Keep materials matchedWood shell pieces socket to wood; metal shell pieces socket to metal.
Doors are the exceptionEither Wooden Door or Metal Door can attach to a wood or metal doorway.
Bars cross materialsMetal Window Bars can attach to either family’s window socket.
One bay, one interiorStairs and ramps conflict with each other and with a ceiling occupying the same bay.

Placement surfaces & rejection rules

The preview helps you find a candidate, but the host repeats the inventory, surface, collision, socket, distance, and ownership checks before consuming the item. A modified client cannot force an invalid placement.

01

Foundations establish territory

A free-standing foundation needs 988.5 horizontal world units of clearance from every existing foundation. Only a direct snap that extends the same base is exempt.

02

Ordinary deployables use explicit surfaces

Campfires, furnaces, storage, respawn objects, barricades, spikes, the Workbench, and Repair Bench may use terrain, rock surfaces, foundations, or ceilings. Their default placement reach is 276.592 units, with up to 16 units of tolerance.

03

Shelters and gateways stay freestanding

Wood Shelters and Wood Gateways accept terrain or rock surfaces, not foundations or ceilings. A Wood Gate then attaches to the gateway’s dedicated socket.

04

Landmarks are not general build surfaces

Curated landmark geometry is excluded from the normal surface masks. Natural trees, resource nodes, and ordinary rock geometry also do not become valid merely because the preview ray hits them.

Contribution rule: a directly snapped foundation may be contributed by another survivor, but it immediately becomes part of the existing owner’s base. Other structural additions require owner or shared access.

Repairing damage

  1. 01

    Carry the exact resource

    Use the repair column above. Put Wood, Metal Fragments, Leather, or Cloth in a hotbar slot, then make that slot active.

  2. 02

    Aim and press the active slot

    Aim at the damaged object from within the default 220-unit range and press the already-active hotbar key. One resource is consumed after the host accepts the repair.

  3. 03

    Respect the timers

    A part cannot be repaired for 10 seconds after taking effective damage. Each successful repair has a 2-second cooldown.

Each resource repairs at most maximum health divided by the full-repair resource count. Repair access defaults to anyone, although servers can restrict it to owners and shared survivors or to owners only.

Ownership & sharing

The first foundation starts a durable base ownership boundary. Pieces added to that base inherit its absolute owner; sharing grants access without transferring ownership.

Inventory > /SHAREOpen the authoritative share panel to grant or revoke access for a connected survivor and review both sharing directions.
/share Player NameExact chat shortcut. It toggles access for one currently connected survivor whose display name matches exactly.

Permissions are keyed to platform identity and persist. Revoking a share removes future access to the owner’s base; it does not make a previous contributor the owner of pieces they placed there.

Safe removal follows dependencies

Type /remove to open the default 10-second removal window, then hit the intended placed part. The host checks that you are the base owner or currently have shared access, that your line of sight and range are valid, and that no dependent piece is still supported by the target.

  • Remove deployables and upper pieces first
  • Clear walls and ceilings before their pillars
  • Clear supported pieces before foundations
  • Armed Explosive Charges cannot be removed

A successful authorized removal makes a best-effort refund of the item’s recipe ingredients. Existing backpack stacks fill first, then empty slots; anything that does not fit is lost and the removal is not rolled back.
