| − | | |
| − | == Introduction ==
| |
| − | This is usually the first question new players come to ask on the Jenn Kellon kingdom chat.
| |
| − | And the answer is, its quite easy - if you have the resources, this guide will provide ALL
| |
| − | the information needed to construct a house so how to get those resources will be provided
| |
| − | here too.
| |
| − | | |
| − | To plan and build a house, you'll need a flat piece of ground, a [[mallet]], and for each wall 20 [[planks]] and a [[large nail]]. You'll also need some [[Carpentry]] skill dependant on how big
| |
| − | your house will be. If you are in a [[village]], you might want to ask for the Small nails, [[mallet]] and someone with high carpentry skill to plan your house.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Flattening the ground ==
| |
| − | Well first of all you need a place to build your house, the ground need to be flat if you
| |
| − | wish to build a house on it so firstly "activate" your [[Shovel]] by double clicking on it and
| |
| − | right click on the ground, select flatten and you will do just that. Note that flattening affects
| |
| − | the tiles adjacent to the tile you flatten.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Woodcutting ==
| |
| − | For the [[planks]] and [[mallet] you'll need get some lumber - this is easy - activate your [[axe]] and go to the nearest [[tree]]. It's a good idea to right click the tree and "examine" it before you decide to chop it down, only very old trees will provide a good amount of lumber. When you have found a tree that you are happy with simply right click it while your axe is activated and choose "cut down". You will need to do this multiple times before the tree is felled. Once it does fall you will see a felled tree on the ground (or just a log if the weight of the tree was below or exactly 25kg). Next you will need to cut up your felled tree in smaller pieces and thus create logs. Right click on the felled tree while you have your axe activated and select "chop up", now pick up the log and we will go on to planking and creating the mallet.

| − | | |
| − | == Creating planks ==
| |
| − | Planking is just as simple as any other action in wurm, which is lucky since you will need
| |
| − | alot of planks to build your house, 20 for every wall actually. To make planks you activate
| |
| − | your saw (starting to see the logic yet?) and right click on your log, choose "create" and then "weapons" and "plank" in the submenu of create (plank being in the submenu of weapons). This is where you WILL start going wrong, planks can be failed and when you do you will only produce wood scraps, be patient with this because it will happen alot - it's completely normal. Repeat the
| |
| − | log cutting and plankmaking to create the amount of planks you need for the amount of walls you have.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Creating the mallet ==
| |
| − | If you fail in any of the following steps and create a woodscrap instead of the item, just start over and try again. Equip your [[Carving knife]], right click the [[Log]] in your [[inventory]] and select Create/Weapons/Shaft. Do this twice. Then right click one of the [[Shaft]] in your [[inventory]] and select Create/Miscellanious/Mallet Head. Equip the [[Mallet Head]] and right-click the shaft, and select Create/Tools/Mallet. If all succeeded, you now have either a mallet or an unfinished mallet. If you have an unfinished one, you can try finishing it (examine it to see what it needs) or create a new one. There's a 20% chance that you'll create a finished one.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Iron ==
| |
| − | Next up is [[iron]], this is the hardest part. To find iron activate your pickaxe, right click on a tile that says "rock" and choose "prospect" from the "mining" submenmu, finding iron is very difficult and you may have to search through hundreds of rock tiles before you manage to find an iron mine - its basicly complete luck. Well, when you have found your precious iron mine its time to start mining it to get to the ore, the "mine" options is also found in the "mining" submenu. Each mining action will deliver 20kg ore. Now you want to get to the iron inside the rock of these ores so you will have to smelt them, you do this by getting yourself another of those fancy logs and with your axe "create" a [[kindling]] from it, once you have this little nifty piece of wood you select your steel and flint, right click on the kindling and create a [[campfire]] with it (its under the container submenu). Now that you have your campfire its time to get smelting! Rightclick on your campfire and "open" it, drag the ore from your inventory to the campfires inventory. Next theres waiting - lots of it. I suggest you mine more ore while you do this but of course if you want to idle you can do that too. Right click on the ore and examine it to check how hot it is, once it reaches "glowing hot" you are very close to get your [[iron lump]]. When the ore has smelted it is replaced by a 1kg iron lump in the campfire, you will need atleast 2kg for the next step.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Iron Anvil ==
| |
| − | The [[iron anvil]] is a crucial tool in wurm and this is what you will create now, get your 2 lumps from the campfire, (they have to be glowing hot for this to work) and activate one of them, rightclick on the other and choose combine. Now activate mallet you made earlier and right click on the 2kg lump, again choose create and pick iron anvil. If you are extremly lucky you will pull this off at the first try, if you dont put your iron scraps in the fire and let them smelt again so they can become lumps once more (this take a shitload of time though so rather mine you some more ore and smelt it up). Repeat till you have your anvil.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Nails ==
| |
| − | Nails! This is what you need to keep your house together, large iron nails. Pick up a lump of atleast 0.3kg and activate it, right click on your anvil and create, tools, large iron nails. When you succeed with this you will get a handful of [[Large Nails]], you'll need one of these handfuls per wall of your house.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Planning the house ==
| |
| − | For every tile your house will occupy, you'll need 1 Carpentry skill. Also, for every wall you'll have you'll need 1 carpentry skill. So if you want to build a 1x1 house (the smallest house possible), you'll need 5 carpentry (4 walls, and 1 tile). To plan the house, go to your flattened piece of land, activate your mallet and right-click a tile, and select 'Plan building'. You can plan
| |
| − | additional (adjacent) tiles in the same way. When you're satisfied with your building shape, right click on it and select 'Finalize building'.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Building the house ==
| |
| − | Finally we can start to actually build the house. Activate your mallet and make sure you have atleast one handfull of large nails and a plank in your inventory, right click on a side of your house and select build, pick door, wall or window after your choice (remember that you need a door to be able to enter the house though) repeat this on all the walls. next you will have to pick up
| |
| − | more planks and continue to build, 19 more times on every wall to be exact since they all need 20 planks total.
| |
| − | | |
| − | When this is done so is your house, w00t!
