Stairs if foundation is too high
Hi, is there a way to connect those small stairs? Or place a foundation inbetween, so I can bridge a higher elevation? I build my house on a slope, but I can't figure out how to build a proper front entrance. Don't want to jump to get into my house all the time...

Its a luxury problem for single player, I know. But I like to build nice.

Thanks in advance.

regards,
Lamarga

Hey there. Since it is a SP save you could try enabling godmode and see what other solutions you can get. The twig stairs might not be able to reach the ground on the side you want to build but you might be able to build a foundation lower and somehow connect it with either L or U shaped stairs to the front of your base. Just an idea. If you are worried about achievements just restart the game once you're done and you are golden.

Are you quite sure about the achievements? I still haven't gotten "Start your first fire" yet...

Similar to what Beda mentioned...
I had the same problem once and managed to get another foundation to snap in front of the high foundation halfway down. Then the small stairs reached from the high foundation to the lower foundation, and from the lower foundation another set of small stairs to the ground.

So I have to dismantle my stairs and try something else. I will give it a try. Thanks.

You can use half-walls to attach foundations at different heights (up/down) then snap stairs to them. I use it to build walkways down to the shore over any slope from my base.

You can try using 'ramp' instead of stairs. Generally speaking tho, and I'm not sure if you're in PvP, you don't want exposed foundations. Like at ALL. Ever.

Scum island is nothing but slopes

I really like Linea's idea, but I have no Idea how to get this to work. I can build up, but not down.

Since I really hated my house, I am going to build it again on the opposite side of the road. The slope goes the right way then, I can access it easily.

Are there any videos about that thing Linea said? Cause I didn't find any.

Indeed it seems it is no longer possible to do this ^^
Cant snap them together anymore.

---------------------------------------------------

Only other way to do it now seems to be manually placing lower foundations and have the stairs overlap. A worse solution in any way than before.

L,U,C Stairs seem to be only usefull when your foundation is placed on flat terrain since you cant place them downwards while the half-stairs cant be placed upwards. Wonder if this gets sorted out somehow in the future, doesnt seem final to me.

Thanks! I will give that a try, before demolishing my old house.
