  1. I've been enjoying the building in this game immensely and have already sunk dozen hours in it a lone but still learned from this, much thanks! Also hoping I can soon enough prove my abilities in the community server as well as learn something from everyone else!

  2. For building platforms out, you can also do it with just 2×2 floors.
    If you place floor on top of the top right, or left, corner in the direction you want to go, then target the opposite top corner of the piece you just placed, it will snap back down to the original piece.

    Love the tips though, especially the one about holding shift with a hoe. I thought I had tried key modifiers before, to no avail, but I guess not all of them (or it was updated). But, that should be very useful for flattening out bays.

  3. Ya these are advanced tips, I've been building almost nonstop (built a castle this past week) and I didn't realize the pickaxe digging tip and never thought to use the beams to help snap floors. Thank you!

  4. Going into the video as a supposed experienced builder I thought: "Surely I am going to know every tip mentioned in the video"
    Well, I stand corrected. Every tip had something new for me. Well done!

  5. Another way to place a fire in a wood building raised off the ground; place Wood Iron beams either all the way around or on opposite sides of a 2×2 wood floor tile, then place another Wood Iron across the middle (so it looks like an H). You can then place the fire on the beam crossing the middle and can remove the side beams if you want. You can even remove the floor tile to have a fire just laying on the Wood Iron beams, which looks kind of cool from below. You probably only need the Wood Iron crossing the H, I just liked the aesthetic of the beams on all so sides when I used it.

  6. Just FYI, you can build a lighthouse with a bonfire. We just did it on my server. What we did was raise the ground as high as it would go, then place the bonfire on top of that column of dirt. Then build around it. Hope this helps.

  7. Dude, youโ€™ve earned a sub on this. I loved the fact that you got straight to the point, no self-promotion (that sometimes lasts longer than the content with some vids). Youโ€™re a pleasure to listen to without frantic, screaming, or condescending voice or tones. Lastly, it was nice that you put a balance of volume and chose music that supported the content rather than clashed with it. Thank you for this awesome video and sharing the tips… I canโ€™t wait to try some of these!
    I have a quick question – supposedly, we can hold shift (I think) when placing an object to keep it from snapping and allow for collision/clipping placement. I have yet to experience it. What could I be doing wrong? Or am I expecting the wrong outcome? I simply donโ€™t see a difference other than less aggressive snapping but snapping nonetheless.
