This is the demolition hammer. Don't use the iron hammer. The demolition hammer allows you to click a block once and get the materials back. https://ylands.fandom.com/wiki/Demolition_Hammer If everbody is set to visitor status then you won't be able to modify terrain, build anything or use the demolition hammer, you also will not be able to capture blueprints. If you are a citizen you can place and destroy entities but cannot capture blueprints, and if you are mayor you have full control over terrain modification, building and destroying entities and capturing blueprints. So basically your issue is because you are visitor you won't be able to do a thing to the door or anything else. If you own the map make yourself mayor and you should be good to go.

They did away with the barriers a few updates ago. Try using a demolition hammer on your door. It will give you the materials back. If the game is multiplayer make sure whoever owns the map has given you permission to use the hammer and weapons and modify the terrain. Now the "barrier" is basically in the multiplayer settings. The owner of the map gives permissions as to what players can and cannot do according to their status as friend, clan, and non-friends.

Ok so I have been thinking about this for a little bit and after playing the game for so long I noticed one debate that always seems to come up is about ship speed regarding engines versus sails. I know from much experimentation that the ship styles all have certain speeds they go and there is a maximum speed regardless of how many engines and sail you place. (4 engines for large and steam ships reaching max speed and 3 engines for the other ships achieves their top speeds). I love using the /dui command to see the temperature and time of day at the top right of the screen, so my question is could we include the speed the character is travelling in that display or possibly create another command that displays the speeds (not just for vehicles, but for animals, cars, walking and running, etc.) ? I think if players had a command that illustrates their speed, it could end a lot of the debates people have about how many engines and sails is fastest,which animals is fastest, etc. Just a suggestion I think people would find useful. Thanks!

One thing they don't teach you in the tutorial which can produce iron on the starting island is taking items back with freeplacing. Hold an item in your hand, press Q then click freeplacing. When you right click an item while freeplacing you are able to get the materials back from an object. Using this method I was able to go around the starter island and recover 50 nails, several planks, 9 iron ingots, etc. from chests, chairs, tables, benches, ladders and other items. You can also break the iron gates by hitting them several times and you will get pieces of metal. There is also a few other items on the starter like a pot and ladel you can break into metal pieces. Go into your inventory and click an item then click the eyeball on the right side of the screen to examine the item. You have the option to either break the item or destroy it with this method. Hope all this information helps you out. Have fun exploring!

Hey if you are having trouble finding Iron I suggest making a basic small boat. It requires, 15 rope, 25 logs, 5 cloth, 5 poles and any hammer.

Haha I think most of us remember when we just started playing building our first log box house. I think every player looks back at their old buildings and deems them to be considerably worse after a few years of practice. Your current buildings show you have spent a ton of time learning the tricks of the trade.

The output logs will reset every time you restart the game, so it's best to grab a copy of them the moment it occurs so the devs can look at them. If the 3 names were listed as your friends it could be possible they had access. If you don't recognize their names the other possibility is they changed their names. As for your other issues with paintgun and annhilator, I suggest grabbing some pics or making a short vid of the issue so the devs can see what the issue may or may not be.

Is it the same player that shows up uninvited or different players? This sounds off especially if you set up a single player game. If it happens again I would definitely get the output logs and send them to the devs. For now maybe I would set up the games with passwords to avoid uninvited visitors

I thought for a second this post was going to be about the compass pointing to random encounters that are not there.....there are quite a few marked on the compass but nothing there......but most of this is about things you cannot get...which is actually obtainable if you press Q to freeplace and right click the items you wish to pick up( the ylandium battery at the propeller and the bullets and books at the egyptian encounters for instance) ......as far as getting exploration points for every random encounter.....it's sort of pointless.....the only thing you use the exploration points for is the mystery Ylands....I have completed all the mystery ylands and have over 2 thousand points left. I'm not worried if a campfire doesn't give me points because that's the only real use for them.....hoping one day the points will get us cosmetic additions like pets, but I'm not griping if I don't get them for something because there is currently only the one way to spend them

I don't believe Frost armor is in exploration DLC yet. They will possibly add it with a future random encounter (Jotunn most likely). The Fishscale armor sets are in the atlantean encounters, the Bronze helmet is in one of the Egyptian encounters with Horus I believe or it could have been the pyramid with the mummies. I have found all of those in the Arid regionsI have found the wooden helmet but I don't think the boots or the Santa armor boots are findable yet.

Sounds fun Both are intriguing designs. Not sure What I would do to number 4 aside from extra storage like you mentioned. I quite like the color scheme you chose for number 4 so I doubt I would do anything to that. The low profile ships can be a challenge when it comes to storage, but I do have some methods I might try to add a few thousand slots (Without changing the outward appearance much hehe.) # 3 and 10 also look like they would be a fun challenge. I love working on the smaller ships. It's fun trying to strike a balance between comfort and function in the smaller designs. # 2 looks quite comfortable and there is so much extra room I think I may have a way to incorporate every workstation into the design without affecting the comfort or space. I'm super curious about #10 interior space do you have any inside pics? Interior design is my jam LOL

Any chance you'll be uploading any of these beauties to workshop? I'd love to play "pimp my ride" again on a few of these. LOL

And all this time I thought you only built ships. Wow those medieval builds are fantastic!

Will this also be available on editor made maps? Looking forward to this feature.

Yeah but I don't want grass....I want the cave plants that look like ivy to place on the walls of structures. People use it a lot in workshop compositions and it looks fantastic....there's enough grass everywhere else. A garden trowel may just take up more inventory space and seems a bit unneccesary for gathering a few cave plants .....but I see what you are getting at.....other plants like lilys, irises, certain rainforest plants all turn into grass when you pick them....however you can get seeds from them by hitting them to plant( can't get the seeds when they are in inventory because they are just grass in inventory...cave plants however are one of the few plants without any seeds, this also goes towards the idea of mushroom logs (not really a plant, but people grow them).....the pots also need some work. I'd like the ability to place them sideways or even upside down and be able to place seeds in them.

So today I was trying to plant a sakura tree on my new ship and found that we can no longer plant sakuras or white cherry trees in the pots. Not sure why this changed but I enjoy having a tree on my ship (I've had a few ships with tress in the large pots). Anyhow most the other trees could not be planted in the large pots except the sakura and cherry tree. I was wondering though if it could be possible to have a larger pot for trees and the other plants we can't plant in the pots. Just a suggestion thanks

I asked a while back if we could have cave plants pickable as the plant itself and not grass....same goes for many other plants. I love decorating with the cave plants in editor, but sadly we cannot do it in exploration yet. There are a ton of other entities that aren't yet available in exploration, but hopefully they eventually integrate all of them because when you have more options it makes it a lot more fun to decorate. I like the idea of a bonsai tree. I think it's possible to make in editor, but may be hard to blueprint depending on materials used.

Hi all. Hope you are enjoying the holidays! I was thinking randomly about things that could be added into Ylands and the thought occurred there is not real swamp/wetlands type biomes. It could be an interesting addition to the game. I come from New Orleans and most of the surrounding areas is wetlands. Wetlands have a large diverse amount of wildlife and fauna that could be integrated quite well into the game. It would be interesting to see another biome type in exploration, and I believe this biome would be an amazing addition. Think of the reptiles and amphibian wildlife, the beautiful plant life. It could also raise awareness of our real wetlands on this planet. Many are in danger of being lost forever due to climate change. I realize creating a brand new biome type for the game could be a massive endeavor, but just a suggestion that I believe could bring more players (new and old) to the game, and would definitely add a ton of variety. I remember when the Eastern expansion was released, and it certainly added an amazing attractiveness to the game, with the Cherry and Sakura trees, the animals, the new block styles for oriental builds, etc. For a wetlands/swamp biome you could start with Willow trees and turtles and snakes...maybe a few new boats and ships....plus an interesting idea would be to change the color of the water to a brownish hue for that biome type. ( by the way I loved the color changes in the Ember Ylands mystery island ) I suppose the major difference aside from water color would be land height. Not many real mountains and high terrain, but I know if the diversity is present then most people would not notice. I know you all have a ton of work ahead of you planned for the new year, but maybe it's an idea you can kick around for a later expansion. Just a suggestion to think about. Keep up the amazing work and Happy Holidays!

It's quite possible the devs are working on something for the workshop website. I know they mentioned they were working on improving the workshop experience and just recently updated their servers to improve multiplayer games. If you can't upload games and are getting that error, I suggest be patient and try again in a few hours.

I found out after leaving the tutorial halfway and coming back to It would not let me complete a task (gather magic blossoms and make magic dust) I Did that but the game acted as though it did not count it. I had to restart the whole thing and I went through it all without leaving mid way and it completed fine. So just a word of advice, try to complete it and don't leave until you are done if you want the achievement.

Use the demo hammer on it, attach it to your ship and you will always be able to find it haha

It's a flag. Must be a visual glitch

Of all the ships I have made, this is the one that I am most proud of.

I call that age my childhood. LOL. You kids with your funny meanings for words...."Old"....ROFL That might be old for a head of lettuce, but compared to a mountain you have only just begun in age.

Very cool!
