#VALHEIM STONE BUILDING HOW TO#

If it has to go through other building parts to get to the ground, then it'll be less stable. If it's on the ground, then it's blue, and very stable. The stability of each piece is measured by the shortest path down to the ground from that piece. If you build too far out in the air without supporting your build, then after a certain point, newly placed parts will just collapse.įortunately, providing good support is fairly simple to understand in Valheim. If you see parts that are yellow, orange, or red, that means the part isn't properly supported by the ground or by other building pieces. Blue is strongest, followed by Green, then Yellow, then Orange, then Red. The colour of the part illustrates how strong or weak it is. With the Hammer equipped, place your cursor over a building part that you placed down.

When building a base or a house in Valheim, you'll need to pay attention to the building's stability, or structural integrity. Valheim building structure: stability & integrity It's far, far easier to build on flattened ground than the naturally bumpy and uneven terrain that Valheim provides. It's also a very good idea to craft a Hoe after building your Workbench, so that you can start flattening the ground nearby. You can only place a building part if you yourself are standing within this circle. If you're trying to place something and you're near a Workbench, you'll see a white dotted-line circle on the ground around the Workbench. Most buildings can only be built near a Workbench. You can do this even while attempting to place another building part.Īnother thing you'll need to build a base is a Workbench nearby. You can also remove built structures and building parts by placing your reticule over them with your Hammer equipped, and pressing the Deconstruct key (default: middle-mouse click). You can then rotate the piece in the world with the mouse wheel, and left-click to place it. To use the Hammer, equip it and then right-click to bring up the build menu, where you can choose what you want to place. You can craft a Hammer directly from your inventory crafting menu. The Hammer is your tool for constructing every single placeable structure in the game. To build a base, you'll need a few things.
