Pallisade question

[JackMehoff]

Would it be possible to place a cornerpost right next to a corner post? (without making a new original cornerpost)

[Hrenli]

To my knowledge - only as an end of a circle (i.e. you start from the left corner post go up, around, come from the bottom and finish it with cornerpost which is just next to the first one).

[ricky]

no, you cant. it has to be cornerpost-wall-cornerpost. I tried to make a circle last world but i had to settle for a less circular design than I wanted.

feelsbadman, but thanks dudes

You can and it's fine, but you can't do it as an extension from a cornerpost. You have to either wrap the wall around and finish there, or start another corner.

Do note that you can make a bit of a "loop" with just using blocks. When you first set your palisade, you can break the sections by hand.

[Hrenli]

you can break the sections by hand.

And hoping it doesn't collapse too much.

[MagicManICT]

This is true. Make sure to repair damaged sections before collapsing another one. Wood blocks are relatively cheap, so nothing saying you can't give a little bit of room to account for this. Besides, the goal is to get two lines of wall like

------X......
......X------

so if you did something like

======X...............
........|......===X....
........|..........|...
........X=======X

It would give you room to build and not collapse much of the wall you want to keep.

Yes! You can use the new 3-tile wide gates to place two cornerposts next to one another.
Prepare a 3-tile wide gate from the originial cornerpost, then prepare a 2-tile wide gate from this cornerpost back towards the original. You can then bash the temporary cornerpost without causing any dangerous splash damage.

Oh wow, we got a new meta now. this changes everything.
