Smoke and Building

[POMF POMF]

Does smoke cause any issues? I built a home that is open on the sides and all the smoke is pouring out of both sides.

Is there anyway I can fill in the holes so my home is completely closed in?

yup, a chimney (or just build the campfire outside near your bed)

yea my first play-through i had it outside and i decided to try it indoor.

I find constructing in the game a bit strange.

yeah a chimney would work, remember to support your buildings with pillars or else it could fall apart.

dont worry youll get used to it, theres no limits on what people can create ive seen on youtube and the screenshot thread.

anyway a 3 wall high wooden wall/tunnel for the smoke to go up and a slanted roof so it doesnt go out in rain should help get the smoke out and the heat in :P i think if the wall is only 2 or 1 high the smoke will choke the fire

And yes, smoke will cause issues if it doesn't have any way to vent.

Here is my ventilation. Handles a hanging brazier and a hearth with exactly zero issues.

does pillars work when you place them on top and place them tell they hit ground? or does the pillars have to start on the ground?

it works yeah, just look at the stability color

random sidenote, the longer smoke stays trapped the worse my performance becomes, its my biggest fps killer/overheater

The solution to your problem is relatively simple because it has been solved in real life :D

What you want to do is build a regular house of your design and then add in a dedicated fire place with a chimney.

So how do you build a chimney? Is it out of stone? Or is it just a hole near the fire in the wall or ceiling?

you can just make it out of wood, it will not start to burn, remember to add a roof on it so the camp fire can burn while it rains.
