Getting Started
Purchase a Research Tent
Available at Sgt. Lakes Outpost and Arturs Outpost for approximately 700 mk.
Place Your Tent
Each player can place a maximum of 2 tents/houses.
Upgrade to a House
You have 24 hours to upgrade your tent to a house. Failure to do so will result in the tent’s removal along with all items inside.
A workbench is required to deposit 100 pieces of wood for the tent-to-house upgrade.
House Features
Color Selection
Choose from 5 different house colors: red, blue, mint, pink, and yellow.

Set a 5-digit PIN code for your house. Share this code only with trusted players.
Decay System
Monitor your house’s decay status under the “Decay” tab in the workbench. Add wood regularly to prevent permanent removal.
