Watchtower Roof Questions

Recommended Posts

Can you only build the 3rd story roof out of metal sheets? If so how many sheets for one roof?

Also is it still possible to stack items on top of eachother to get over things? I'm mainly building my watchtowers fully because i worry someone will just stack doors to get in. I have 2 watchtowers with the openings facing eachother and one wall unbuilt on the bottom floor with a gate instead, pretty nice style of base in the woods if you wanna avoid people hoping on eachother to get in.

Yeah it has to be sheet metal, 1 believe one sheet will do the job.

If someone builds a watchtower by yours, they could use it to hop in your base.  You have to build a double wall compound making it more challenging for the raider to get in

As mentioned 3 sheets per roof and yes only metal roofs. 

You can not stack items on console. So no worries there. You can however place a vehicle in the right spot and be able to jump a fence/gate. The ground condition is important for this to work though.

I always build around a building and the building will always have a gate and lock as well as any gate entry into the compound.  Barbed wire is your friend as most raiders don't carry pliers.

Hope this helps
