Do Stone Mine create an Outpost ?
Let me explain, I've started at Rebirth and managed to escape The Holy Nation and I'm now settlling at The Hub for a moment to build up my squad Gear, Money and Skills...

So I've bought a Storm House IN the city and I'm actually trying to repair it...
Since the traders in the city don't have infinite Buildings Materials I was thinking of crafting it myself !

I plan to build a Stone Processor Inside my House (if possible?) and I'm just about to build a Stone mine outside the City but I'm afraid of getting raided by bandits right after the construction finish...

So my question is : Do any constructions in the wild is considered as an Outpost even if it's just a Stone Mine and maybe a Stone Processor ?

Maybe I should just looking for traders selling Buildings Materials a bit farther...
What do you guys Think ? I don't plan to stay at The Hub my whole life either so it's the Two Only options I see !


Sorry for the long text, and for my English ! It's not my Native Language ^^'

Stone Processor Inside my House - you cannot.

I'm afraid of getting raided by bandits - turn down raid frequency on settings.

looking for traders selling Buildings Materials - rebel base to the north of Hub or Squin to the southeast

it will create outpost... for gear.. better explore + loot, it will make you stronger in any aspect cause you cant increase your fighting stats while sitting at home

Squinn is southwest of the Hub though. There's a waystation with a building supplies vendor to the southeast of The Hub. It's over by the big flat round bit near the ruined village in the eastern Border Zone.

There is a Waystation very close to the east and a city to the west both sell materials,

A better solution for your problem is to mine copper and sell it , then get the materials for the repairs.

You can also Hire mercenaries to protect your outpost very cheap, every waystation has a group you could hire 2 groups and that should be enough to protect your outpost from most raids.

The best way to start Kenshi is find resources near a trader and mine by hand. This builds stats for the group and saves credits for buying gear and is alot of fun.

Congrats on 1 million sales Kenshi, nicely done. :steamhappy:

Yeah this is what I've done at the Hub ! Mining Copper to make some money, looting wounded bandits at the entrance of the city. Now I'm on the day 41 and I've settled East of the Hub near the Waystation and hiring merc to protecc me the very first days so I can set some walls and defences ! :steamhappy:

You mean "English?" Uh... it's not the language of the "Americans." We just stole it, added to it, changed it where we felt like changing it, and now use it.

As to why it's being used here, you're in the "English" forums for Kenshi.

As to why it's very popular around the world, it's a very easy language to learn. It is not, necessarily, an easy language to master for non-English speakers. But, it is a language that is easily manipulated to allow non-English speakers the ability to make very specific and descriptive words and phrases that have clearly understandable interpretations, even though many different words could be used to "say the same thing."

It's the "language of trade" because of these things as well as the fact that the nations that made use of it were also very widely spread and influential "traders" and visited many non-English cultures over a very long period of world history.

There have been several attempts to invent some sort of "World Language" and most of them have been nonsensical and unnecessary. (Esperanto, for instance)

we dont.. we are already altering the language.. you never saw someone say "your wrong" instead of "you're wrong?

I thought Esperanto was fully functional if utilizing odd grammar? If I remember correctly the creator of the language grew up in a region with many different languages spoken in the vicinity, and he believed a universal language would help reduce the strife between local peoples who spoke different languages.

I read in an Uncle John's Bathroom Reader there used to be very large clubs of Esperanto speakers internationally; the real problem was that the Esperanto clubs couldn't agree on which of several modifications to the original to apply and make "official" and with a divided interest base mostly disappeared as a hobby.

You are capable of putting down an outpost that will not be attacked by LOCALS as long as you don't build any sort of house. However you will still get scripted raids (that show up on the Factions page). These, due to knowing when and where, are a lot easier to work around and plan for (even if you just hide in the nearby town and wait it out). Without a house, they don't stay around for very long. Also be mindful of food storage, I recommend filling backpacks with food and turning on food sharing instead. Bread can be made without a house.

Also push walls far enough back so that wanderers don't notice you from the other side of the wall.
