Wagon Gate?

Post by ChickenSlim »

I've got a pallisade with 2 gates right now. A cornerpost between the gates... How do I make a "Wagon Gate"? Or will my current setup work with a wagon?

There's an extensive guide for making a double gate around here. Try a search on 'Wagon Gate'. Someone might even have the link handy and post it for you.

The process requires two people and some temporary construction signs. You end up making two gates with no cornerpost between them so that a wagon can get out.

Where yellow = walls, red = cornerposts, and green = the gate itself?

Could you explain what the diagrams mean exactly?

You need a friend or two (or alts) to do it. You hold the radial menu open when destroying the cornerposts. Try it with roundpole fences first, they're much cheaper.

Came from RU forums not sure who made it. Seems its basically 1 person building, and 2 people to hold the menu options open when they become available.

I use roundpole double-gates for livestock, helps to keep them from getting stuck on cornerposts, somewhat.

Just to clarify. The original diagram and way of keeping radial menu open was done by Windforce, the improvement on design of the brick wall was from a user on the RU forums. Very awesome way to save some bricks~ ;)

I make double gates all the time with alts, just make sure you hold open the correct one (NOT the one you're actually destroying, but the other one)
