WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Craft a Wooden Chest from Planks
Inside a claimed flag area where the completed chest can be accessed and used for storage.
Before you go
- Claimed flag and room for a chest blueprint.
- 8 Wooden Planks.
- 36 Rope.
- 2 Nails or 2 Bolts at no Engineering skill.
Farming steps
- Choose an accessible spot inside the flag radius with enough room to reach the chest after construction.
- Place the Wooden Chest blueprint and inspect its displayed material requirements.
- Gather eight planks, thirty-six rope, and either two nails or two bolts if the placer has no Engineering skill.
- If the blueprint shows different requirements, follow its displayed list rather than assuming the no-skill recipe applies.
- Add the required components to the blueprint and complete the construction interaction.
- Open the finished chest and organize gathered supplies so the next resource run starts with clear inventory space.
- Keep high-priority materials sorted for the next building or survival task.
- Check the blueprint after placement because Engineering skill can change the material cost.
- Place storage where you can reach it without blocking access to other base objects.
Repeat, collect and use
Chest construction is a one-time build for each storage container. Repeat only when you want additional storage and can meet the displayed recipe; stored items can be reorganized as often as needed.
Common mistakes
- Gathering the no-skill recipe without checking the placed blueprint can leave you short; use its current requirement list.
- Placing outside the flag radius can prevent the expected base construction; confirm the claimed area first.
- Building in a cramped corner can make storage awkward to access; reserve clear working space.
When to stop or switch
Stop collecting once the blueprint is complete and the chest serves your storage need; build another only when existing capacity is insufficient.
