A huge part of Origins Mod is base building which allows you to build houses, fences, gates and even a stronghold creating whole bases and villages for you, your friend or even your whole clan. Lets have a look at how to build basic structures such as fences first and then at more complex structures such as houses and the stronghold.
Contents
Fences
Fences are the key element of any base, they allow you to define your territory and keep zombies and others players out!
Wooden Fence
The wooden fence is a very simple and easy to build fence, you will need to have a hatchet
in your tool belt and 2 short planks
in your inventory to build it. Although easy to build it is easy to easy to destroy with a few gun shots and won't do much for you apart form keeping zombies out.
Right-click on the hatchet and select 'Wooden Fence'.
You will see either a red or green silhouette of the fence. The green silhouette means that you can build the fence on that spot, the red one means you can't. You can walk and look around to choose exactly where you want to build the fence. When you are ready to build press the space bar on your keyboard. To abort building just run away until the silhouette disappears.
After building a fence you can build another one beside it and so on...
Reinforced Wooden Fence
The reinforced wooden fence is also a very simple and easy to build fence but provides more protection against light bullets thanks to the reinforced metal sheets on it. You will need to have a hatchet
and adjustable wrench
in your tool belt, 2 short planks
and 1 reinforcement material
in your inventory to build it.
Right-click the hatchet icon and select 'Reinf. Wooden Fence' to build it.
Dirt Fence
The dirt fence is more complex to build than the wooden fences, however it provides higher protection, it cannot be shot through or destroyed or run over by vehicles. It also features a hole that you can use to shoot out of.
To build a dirt fence you will need to have an adjustable wrench
in your tool belt and 2 reinforcement materials
in your inventory.
Then you need to find an excavator which will be used to construct the fence and other fences and gates that we will talk about after.
Place the excavator approximately in front of the place you want to build the fence and switch to the operators seat and then select 'Build dirt fence' from the action menu.
You will once again see a red/green silhouette of the fence, red meaning that you cannot build on that spot and green meaning that you can. Rotate the excavator and drive it to where you want the fence to be, just don't drive too far or the action will be cancelled. You can cancel the building action by selecting 'Cancel' form the action menu.
Press the space bar to build the fence.
Dirt Fence (Upgraded)
After building a dirt fence you can upgrade it by approaching it and selecting 'Upgrade' from the action menu.
To upgrade it you will need to have the following tools in your inventory:
- Old Hammer
- Old Pliers
- Old Saw
You will also need to have the following items in your inventory:
- 1x Screws Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 2x Bags Of Cement Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 3x Long Planks (Click here to learn how to craft them) Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 2x Reinforcement materials Error creating thumbnail: File missing
You can also build the upgrade dirt fence straight away using the excavator by selecting 'Build Dirt Fence (Upgraded)' from the action menu when you are in the operator's seat. For that you will need the following tools in your inventory:
- Old Hammer
- Old Pliers
- Old Saw
You will also need to have the following items in your inventory:
- 1x Screws Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 2x Bags Of Cement Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 3x Long Planks (Click here to learn how to craft them) Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 4x Reinforcement materials Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Gate
Now that you have learnt how to build fences to keep zombies and other players out you should learn how to build gates, because eventually you will have to leave your base to get supplies and will need a way to let yourself out.
To build a gate you will also need to use the excavator and you will need to have the following tools in your tool belt:
- Adjustable Wrench
- Screwdriver Set
You will also need to have the following tools in your inventory:
- 2x Short Planks
- 1x Code Lock
- 2x Reinforcement Material
- 1x Battery
Then select from the action menu when you are sitting in the excavator in the operator's seat to build the gate.
You will be prompted to enter a 4 - 6 number password which you will later use to open the gate. Do not share this password with anyone or they will be able to unlock your safe and take your loot!
Press the ENT key on the in game number pad to confirm the password.
