Daub seems out of balance.

So, is unlocking this and using it even worth it?
by the time i even had enough farming tech to access this, let alone buying the bp.

I already had all my houses made from stone, and quite a bit upgraded to lime, since you just get lime as a raw material.

Yea the daub is pretty easy to make once you actually get access to it.

But once you do is it really worth it since by that time you would already have stone houses?

100% agree with this.

I'm no where close to stone houses and unlocked it a while ago, year 9 currently. So it depends on when you unlock it. If you have the higher tier houses then there wouldn't be any reason to unlock it that I can see.

why are you not, you just change the type, i found using a log and around 8 stone per wall is much better than trying to use sticks, as they last so much longer, and you can gather 100 stone in 3 to 4 mins just running on most river shores at the start of a season.

Wait, what!? How do you change the types?

Demolish the wall. Before rebuilding it, type E. This only works for houses.

For a new house, you can do this for each individual building segment before you start building it, and have a patchwork of styles if you want. I progressively rebuilt any damaged walls and rooves in stones and planks, so my houses looked very odd for a year or two.

You can use the same thing to decide where to put windows and doors, but you cannot rearrange the interior, and some people have reported problems when they moved the door. I have never tried.

Oh wow, thank you! I thought stone and limestone, etc unlocked with the last house in the building tech.

Before you build a wall or other module, press the Interact key while looking at it and you'll have the option to choose between various materials to use and whether you want that module to be a wall, wall with window or door.

be careful tho, if you put stuff in but dont finish it fully, and change its type after, you seem to lose the mats you put in.

Thanks folks, I have some work to do. *starts crafting a pile of building hammers*

[MythN7]

I decided to start a new char, as lots of things ive learned i wanna use instead of trying to fix my base lol.

But on day 1 for the build your first home, i did it all of stone.
since the player can still sleep in the house with no roof, im gonna smash those and replace with planks that i will steal from near by town each season till i can make my own LOL
