Paving
Description
Paving is the skill needed to pave dirt, e.g. for faster travel on roads, 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.
Paving skill is increased as of December 24th 2012 by packing dirt.
Items required
- Rock Shards for making Gravel
- Stone Brick for making Cobblestone
- Slab for making Stone slabs
- Floor boards for making Wooden planks
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.
