Wooden Fortifications

Vintage Story doesn't have much in the way of passive base defense, so I set out to rectify that with some simple crude additions available from day 1.

Thanks to Thalius for the new art and ideas, I was finally able to get off my butt and create the walls how I originally envisioned them. They can now be modularly stacked to a configurable maximum height.

Known Issues:

• Players will sometimes not take damage while touching spikes after the first impact. I probably won't fix this.
• Stability will allow floating structures if they are "supporting eachother". Unsure if this is worth fixing.
