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.

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:
- Adjustable Wrench Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 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:
- Adjustable Wrench Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 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 Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- Screwdriver Set Error creating thumbnail: File missing
You will also need to have the following tools in your inventory:
- 2x Short Planks Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 1x Code Lock Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 2x Reinforcement Material Error creating thumbnail: File missing
- 1x Battery Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Then select 'Build Gate' 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.
Gate (Upgraded)
Once you have built a gate you can upgrade it to make it taller and give you more protection. Approach it and select 'Upgrade' from the action menu.

Demolishing Fences
To demolish fences you will need to use the excavator. Drive up to the fence and select 'Demolish' from the action menu. A red ball will appear under the shovel. You need to position the red ball on to the fence you want and then press the space bar to demolish the fence.
Houses
Now that you have learnt how to build fences and secure the perimeter of your base, let's have a look at building houses.
To build a house you must either be a bandit
or a hero
. Survivors
cannot build houses. Click here to read about factions and the humanity system. Your faction hero/bandit will determine how your house looks, although if you build a house as a hero you will not need to remain a hero to access it, you will be able to access it even when you change factions.
There are 4 levels of houses that you can build anywhere on the islands. Each level requires more materials and is harder to build than the previous level but gives you more storage space and even a garage in return. Keep in mind that you may only have one house of each level.
Bandit Houses
Let's assume you are a bandit and want to build a house. You will need to start from a level 1 house (you cannot build a level 4 house straight away).
Bandit Level 1
To begin you will need to find the blueprint 
(L1 Bandit) for a bandit level 1 house.
The level 1 house capacity is:
| Magazines/Loot | Weapons | Backpacks |
|---|---|---|
| 500 | 15 | 5 |
House construction is also divided in to stages and you will not need an excavator as you did with fences. First you need to build a foundation. Let's have a look at how to do that.
Foundation (Stage 1)
To build a foundation you will need to find and assemble a cement mixer
in approximately the place where you want to build your house. You will use the cement mixer to build the foundation. Find a cement mixer
, right-click on it and select to build it.
You will also need the following tools in your tool belt to build it:
Next you need to put the correct amount of materials in to the cement mixer that are required for building the foundation, for the bandit level 1 house the materials required for the foundation as as follows:
| Icon | Name | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
|
Wood Pile | 25 |
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
|
Rocks | 15
|
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
|
Reinforcement Materials | 2 |
Error creating thumbnail: File missing
|
Bag of Cement | 2 |
Once you have put the materials in the cement mixer, right-click on the blueprint icon and select .
A green or red silhouette of the foundation will appear. The red silhouette means that you cannot build there and the green silhouette means that you can build there. To place the foundation press the space bar on your keyboard.
| Note |
|---|
| You cannot build houses closer than 150 meters to towns and villages. |
After building the foundation you will need to wait for the server to restart before continuing construction! Do not place anything in to the foundation before the server restarts or it will get lost!
Stage 2 (Lock Stage)
Destroying A Foundation
If you accidentally build the foundation in the wrong place you can still destroy it at this point, just approach it and select from the action menu. Keep in mind that you will loose all the materials you used to build it and any loot you have not taken out of it!
Hero Houses
Hero houses are built the same way as bandit houses. Refer to the tables below for a full list of materials needed for each stage of each hero house.
Hero Level 1
The level 1 house capacity is:
| Magazines/Loot | Weapons | Backpacks |
|---|---|---|
| 500 | 15 | 5 |

Deleting Houses
Deleting Houses
Once you have built a house it is permanent, if you want to delete the house you have to ask the server admin.
Also note that if your house is inactive for 14 days since the day you built it, it will automatically be deleted. To prevent your house/houses form being deleted you need to unlock and lock it/or each of them (by entering the pin code) at least once every 14 days. The 14 day countdown will commence again since the day you last locked and unlocked it.
