Using platforms instead of walls

[shoverbug]

same amount of logs +4 sticks, keeps enemies back, is unbreakabe, you can snap it, stack it, climb on it, look over it and shoot over it.

This is my little fort, its nothing epic, but at this point in the game theres not much to do but attrack big hordes of freaks :)

how does this work when they try to leap attack you?

[SLICEDandDICED]

I was wondering too. ^ They sometimes even jump over my walls.

One in awhile one or two will jump up and land on the platform, but over all I'd say 99% of them cant get in

I was wondering since a while ago, how do you stack the plataforms and the stairs, its a mod or something? I ve tried but get nothing.

When you'r in the build mode, place everything you want to build first, before you start building.

for example, if you want to make a roof, place a basic wall, then immediately click basic wall again from the build menu. when you move it close to the one you first placed, it will snap to it.

same goes for platforms and stairs. place a platform, then pick platform again and move it on top of the white outline of the first one, it should snap on top of it. stairs snap to platforms too.

Nice and creative. I'm envious of your apparently growing gardens as many of us are finding this impossible since 8.

Suggestion: Platform Specific Wall Climbing for Cannibals.
Hehe.

Glad to here arrows go over them since I was disappointed that I couldn't shoot through a custom wall with window...

That is sweet. I use walls to make plateau, simply start a ghost wall and start a second one and attach it so it is the ceiling, now delete the first ghost wall and the ceiling stays there!

I was trying that for awhile, but I get sick of accidentally hitting them with my ax here and there then they all go tumbling down. :(
