Where to build smelter/kiln

Postby Sitting_Bill » Mon Jul 11, 2011 3:52 pm

So... yesterday some our villagers were chasing a fleeing boar through the village when it decided to attack our best smelter, promptly grinding it to dust :D. I guess the best place for a smelter is underground, but where do you guys put your high q kilns/ovens to avoid getting trolled by animals like this?

don't let wild animals into your village, that would be the best solution, wouldn't it? ;>

Animals can spawn on Vclaims but not Pclaims. Best solution for no animals is to also have the entire village under 1 Pclaim. Second best solution is to get villagers who can kill animals before the run, or twitch hunt so they don't run.

Grassify your whole village, no agressive animals will spawn.

What is this? Zelda? :P

Not only will you not get aggressive animals, you'll get aurochsen you can pick hairs from and other grassland spawns. If you get aggro'd, they won't even destroy things. You can just duck in a house.

You can also pave everything and then nothing will spawn.
