How long can I be away from game?

[Narque]

I play solo and still learning the game I have built on an island out in the deep sea and have palisades up and started farming.
Does being out on an island make it less desirable for someone to raid me? and how long can I be away from the game before my claim falls?
as I work threw the week and only play mainly on weekends apart from the off hour here and there.

Thank you

A full claim takes 2 months to go inactive. Someone can raid a fully soaked, and 4x numened claim in 3 days with a battering ram. I find it unlikely someone would battering ram a little hermitage, but I can't say it's impossible. The biggest giveaway for "claim is active, player isn't" is the state of farmlands. Entirely ripe fields, unplanted fields, or "dead from winter but we're a week into spring" are all giveaways.

So your answer is either 3 days or 2 months

What does happen when it hits winter can you no longer grow any crops? and thank you for answering and helping

Planted crops wilt, and can be harvested to get ~1 plant's worth of seeds back. No crops will grow until spring.

So you don't lose anything, but if you don't replant in the spring the wilted crops are pretty obvious.

I accidentally left a damn door open when i left for a weekend. Had a heart attack when i logged back in and went outside.

Nothing touched whatsoever. I knew I was in a less-travelled area but holy cow, that's a first for me.

If your palisade has visitor gates then you do not have much to fear, aside of wild animals wandering in.
