Barricades can be found naturally in the gameworld where a former survivor has barricaded a house.
Beware that sometimes these houses are full of zombies as the barricades keep them inside as well.
Barricading
To Barricade
To barricade an object with a wooden plank, you must have a hammer, a wooden plank and nails in your inventory.
To barricade an object with metal sheets, you must have a welder, a welding mask and a metal sheet in your inventory.
Right click onto the selected door or window and this will bring up a drop down menu where you can choose to "Barricade".
To undo a Barricade
If you wish to remove a wooden barricade, you will need to use a hammer, and you will get wood planks back.
If you wish to remove a metal barricade, you will need to use a welder and welding mask, and once done you will get the metal sheet back.
Strength of Barricades
Wooden Barricade strength is dependant on the wooden plank that has been placed on the window. As the barricade becomes damaged, the planks themselves become damaged. To restore the health of the barricade, a fresh non-damaged plank must be placed after the older planks are taken down. Doors/Windows which are barricaded are protected from damage until the last wooden plank is removed either by the player or by zombie attack.
A metal barricade currently (Version 36.4) is dependant on its HP and will simply break over time. (this is a assumption)
Effects of Barricade
Barricades can delay zombies breaking in by ingame hours, and buys a player time to evacuate or if possible, defend from intruders attempting to break in by leaving via another entrance.
Window Barricade Effects
A barricaded window with 1-2 planks can be viewed through, assuming a curtain/sheet is not down on the window. This allows for some measure of protection while looking out at what is attacking the window. A window with 3-4 planks OR a metal sheet cannot be seen through and there will be no way to see how many zombies are outside or if it is a safe exit to take. A window without a barricade is extremely fragile.
Door Barricade Effects
A barricaded door is unopenable, so think carefully on placement of barricades incase a door is breached that another exit is possible.
