Either a very bad troll or someone so stupid he doesn't deserve to survive in haven.

Just to add to this thread I wanted to share my bad set up that caused me to lose my base.

Image

The attackers obtained the slave key to the regular gate on the left (marked in blue) and the visitor gate (marked in yellow) was left open.

They managed to open the regular gate after walking through the visitor gate, I was told by some of the people in the Discord channel this shouldn't normally be possible. It appears that by riding a horse they were able to do this though.

They then walked through the regular gate and destroyed everything I had. So I don't recommend this build here :lol:

What's the bug? Do they use the extended hitbox of the horse and a weird angle to touch the gate without having to pass through the vgate?

Yes. That's why you must also leave at least a tile between your visitor gate and the fence gate inside your base.

Could you rate this airlock please? This is my first palisade, I'm new and dont know much about intricacies. I have one regular gate turned in to escape bears, leading to metal locked stonehut with metal locked cellar. Everything else leading inside the claim is visitor gates.

Added a line about the W16.1 gate changes at the end, but since it generally is 100% helpful to totally new players I'm not sure what else to say, and I don't want to delete the old stuff yet because who knows what the future will bring.

funny thing about cyrillic is, you don't know if it's an ape (that couldn't learn english after using the internet for 10-20 years) just sperging out, or a bot advertising something
