Wrecking Balls

[Scilly_guy]

So I built a wrecking ball about a week ago to make a gateway from one section of palisade to another. I was expecting a "use" right click option to appear after the 3 day drying time. Has the drying time been changed? Is there some other way to use a wrecking ball?

Sorry if this has been asked before, I tried searching for it but all I found was people saying they couldn't build it or use it to destroy auth objects.

You need to make sure the wrecking ball has been placed the correct way around, the little wooden wedges on the legs have to be facing away from the wall.

There is also sometimes an issue if it has been placed slightly off centre of a tile, but check the wedges first ... if it's the correct way around then I'll look for the other thread on placement.

Thanks, I knew about the little pegs but not about the needing to be centered.

Yeah, I just came back as I found the thread ....

It won't work if placed like this;



Needs to be positioned like so;

Even the first time I placed it correctly it still didn't have the option. Its good to know the option appears straight away. Here is a link to another thread: viewtopic.php?f=42&t=50709&p=670597
