Vonnie406 1 Posted December 7, 2017 Hey, new to game today I've worked out how to cut down a tree and get logs, i can't work out how i can use these logs to build a house.....looking online as I see workworker's bench but that's no longer in the game.....confused! And even if it still existed, you'd need a saw, which you make in a forge, which you need a wooden beam for, and to make that you need a saw........ bit frustrated Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forget the bit about needing a wooden beam for the forge. Still don't understand how to take the logs and make a structure though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
handofthesly 214 Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) You can place the logs when you have them selected in your hotbar or using free place mode by pressing the V key. No, it's not as easy as Minecraft blocks but you can be way more creative in what you can make. There are a number of different building blocks that you can make using materials such as clay, marble chunks, stone chunks, sandstone chunks as well as hay! For marble, stone and sandstone blocks you need a chisel and a hammer. For brick blocks you need to use clay inside of a Kiln workstation.

handofthesly 214 Posted December 7, 2017 Here's the section in the Codex for placing objects. This can be viewed by pressing F1 while in game or through the Pause Menu Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vonnie406 1 Posted December 8, 2017 thanks very much folks, I can now place logs :). No idea how you make planks or blocks, but i'll keep playing and work it out. I had no idea about the codex thing, i'll have a better look at that, thanks again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
