Development Log #26 - Building 2.0

Hello Survivors.

This week is a builder's log. Your deed lives on your HUD. Frames get new inserts. Walls get new decorations. And your build can finally be capped with iron and a proper roof.


Frame of Life

Your property deed tracks four scores that shape your base: Prosperity, Antiquity, Architecture, and Industry. Until now you had to walk back to the deed to check them. That changes this week. Step inside your build radius and the scores sit persistently in the bottom right of your HUD.

That's the metaphorical framing. The literal frames got attention too. Glass inserts and prison inserts are craftable deployables that snap into any frame you've built.


Decorating

More scores mean more things worth placing. Banners, shields, glowing orbs, and pikes handle the interior. Palisades, sandbags, spiked walls, and new fences handle the exterior. Better looking. Better defended.


A New Level

Building progression on the Isle runs wood, adobe brick, stone, and now iron. Iron sits at the top: the strongest natural defense you can raise. Anything sturdier will need to come from elsewhere. More on that another week.

Then there's the roof. Until now, no matter how tall or ornate a base got, it capped out flat. That's over. Your build finally gets a proper crown, and your silhouette on the ridgeline can look like whatever you want it to look like.
