Pause means "Hearthlings stop working on this." There can be a lot of reasons to do this.Start building guys!" If you press this you can NOT change anything unless you save it as a template, trash the project, and place the template you just saved. Done means there's nothing to construct, either because you haven't drawn anything, or the project you're looking at is finished.Build Button - This will say "Done" or "Build or "Pause.".It's generally only worth naming important things like an actual building instead of a flat little planter for a flower box you stuffed in a corner somewhere. (More about this in saving and loading templates.) If the template is new to this game it will have a number here, because you haven't named it yet. It's also the name of the project you're making. Template Name - This is where you'll find the name of the template you're editing.Let's start at the left and generally work our way over. All objects are components, not all components are objects.īoy that's a lot of stuff isn't it? Don't panic! I'm here to help.

Object - objects are the physical items that hearthlings create and can actually be removed from a project after it is finished (or even while it's still building!) Decorations, furniture, doors, and windows are all objects.Component - A component is anything that the game sees as an individual thing.If it gets its own Blue arrow cross then it's safe to say it's a component.Not the one you plopped somewhere on the ground but the one that presumably lives in a little text file on your hard drive somewhere." Template - A "template" generally means "the building you picked out of the drop down menu.Project - If I call something a "project" I mean the actual instance of the thing you are currently making on the screen that will turn into a finished building (or whatever) once you tell your hearthlings to get to it.Why build properly? So that you can build not just a cool looking structure, but a structure that looks cool in all three viewing modes so other people can share in the glorious joy that is your nifty creations. (If you were just playing and don't care about what you were making, don't bother with templating it.) Don't be afraid to try. Now place down the template you just made and pick up where you left off. Now hit the trash button and confirm that you want to destroy the project. If it's a building you want to keep working on, save it as a template. If you did, pause the game immediately (if it wasn't already) so that the hearthlings don't try to build. The worst case scenario is that you press build before you meant to. It costs you no resources to try something weird. That's excellent! Go find out the answer!īuilder's Tip #0: Experimenting in the building mode can't hurt your game. You may find that trying an experiment makes you wonder or ask a question about a different tool.
There are no given answers to the questions an experiment asks beyond the ones you find yourself. Tips summarize the major thrust of a section or point out hazards that are easy to trip over.Įxperiments are things to try to encourage you to experiment more deeply with a tool. Throughout it you will find Builder's Tips and Experiments. This guide is ultimately intended to both teach you the proper way to build in Stonehearth and to suggest things to try that will give you a greater understanding of your tools. Should any of those master builders out there find something wrong or know of a tip/shortcut/feature that I missed, drop a comment and I'll try to work it in somewhere. (Wouter, the basement section is for you.) If I sent her one of those it would be worse than useless. I couldn't find a single one that wasn't horribly out of date. and then I tried to find a video so one of my friends could figure out building in Stonehearth. And then 1.0 dropped and to my delight the interface was different. In fact I kind of hated doing it in the Alphas.
Do look at them all full-size.ĭisclaimer the Second: I do not pretend to be an expert at building in Stonehearth. There's text all over nearly every image pointing out important things. I might try to fix that at some point but I'm not sure it's really possible.
Disclaimer the First: This is an image heavy guide and they're all large.
