Construction Materials For The Shelter And Hearth?

The game Ring of Brodgar has introduced Variable Materials, a mechanic that allows structures and objects to take on cosmetic characteristics of their input resources. This mechanic is particularly useful for log cabins, which are constructible buildings with 4×4 tile housings for furniture or liftable containers. Buildings that require thatching can be made with any combination of these objects, but only the primary material will affect its appearance.

In World 4, mine holes can now be built at any location, but the ground must be paved beforehand in most biomes, requiring the skill Prospecting and hardened materials. Palisades are sturdy walls that require at least 626 strength to damage without the aid of a Battering Ram for an average player.

Up to five types of wood (two for boards, three for blocks), two types of stone, and one type of metal can be seen. More types can be used in building. Hearthlings don’t finish buildings, and it’s unclear why this is the case.

The game also offers a Hemp and Natural Building workshop with @balanced, teaching players how to source wild clay, test it, and use it for building. One player mentioned that they always try custom building great stone walls or wooden palisades to encompass their hearthdom, but they were almost always unsuccessful.

In summary, the game Ring of Brodgar introduces Variable Materials, allowing players to create consistent viewed buildings with camera-settings input options.
