==Description==
Paving is the skill needed to pave dirt, e.g. for faster travel on [[road]]s, covering your yard to prevent nature taking it over, laying the floor of your [[house]], or simply for aesthetic pleasure.

It is possible to pave under water[1], for example to ease the exiting of the vessel onto dry land in a ship dock/harbour, and for aesthetics purposes.

[1]With Body strength higher than 21, you are able to pave a tile, then dig it into water to completely submerge it.

==Items required==

* [[Rock Shards]] for making [[Terrain:Gravel|Gravel]]
* [[Stone Brick]] for making [[Terrain:Cobblestone|Cobblestone]]
* [[Slab]] for making [[Terrain:Stone slabs|Stone slabs]]
* [[Terrain:Wooden planks|Wooden planks]] for making [[Floor boards]]

==Method==

Paving is done on [[packed dirt]], except floor boards on [[dirt]] or [[marsh]]. Activate the item you want to pave with, right-click the tile and choose '''Pave'''.

Higher paving skill and higher quality paving item give a faster timer.

===Unpaving===
Paved tiles can be converted back to dirt by equipping a [[shovel]] and choosing '[[Destroy pavement]]'. [[Body strength]] of 20 and [[digging]] skill of 10 is needed for destroying pavement. Destroying pavement gives digging skill, not paving skill.

Packed dirt tile

Edwinall: cut submerged paving... pasting into paving section as not really relevant

[[CDB|Main]] / [[:Category:Terrain|Terrain]] / '''{{PAGENAME}}'''

'''Packed dirt''' is a [[dirt tile]] or [[grass tile]] that has been packed.

Packed dirt can happen naturally by heavy traffic over a period of time, by [[livestock]] grazing the tile bare, or by packing it with a [[shovel]].

Walk and run speed on packed dirt is higher than on [[grass]] or [[dirt]], but not as fast as [[gravel]], [[cobblestone]], or [[stone slab]].

A packed dirt tile can be [[pave]]d with a
* [[Rock shard]] to create a [[gravel]] tile
* [[Stone brick]] to create a [[cobblestone]] tile
* [[Slab]] to create [[stone slab]] tile

Packed dirt can be cultivated into a dirt tile using a [[rake]] or [[shovel]].

Packed dirt will eventually be overgrown by nearby grass or [[tree]]s, but not as fast as [[dirt]] would be so, in effect, packing the tile will slow the growth.

You are not able to pack dirt that is submerged in water, however it appears that packing dirt with one edge submerged is easier on South-East facing tiles, While NW facing tiles need to be completely raised from water to be packed.

[[Mycelium]], [[moss]] and [[enchanted grass]] tiles can be changed to packed dirt with a shovel.

==Description==
A '''construction marker''' is a tall wooden structure with four yellow on green arrows pointing down, used to mark that someone is planning a build project here. It is just dropped in place, not planted like a sign. It cannot be improved.

Unlike deed markers, these do not decay within an hour.

==Materials==
* Shaft x 2
* Large nails x 1
* Plank x 4
