A plank is a melee weapon and material used in many carpentry recipes.
Usage
Weapon
The plank is melee weapon which has poor durability, but is effective at knocking down zombies. This means it is effective if used in combination with a stomp when the zombie is on the floor to minimise durability lost.
The plank is a heavy weapon (weight 3) and has a slow swing rate. Its main benefit is that it works well for pushing zombies away from the player.
A plank is a multi-attack weapon, and can attack 2 zombies at once. It also can cause 5 door damage per swing, but no tree damage.
Fortification
A wooden plank is the staple fortification reserve in Project Zomboid. They are primarily used to barricade doors and windows or to fortify/create structures by making wall pieces, doors, door frames, window frames, crates, stairs, and barricades.
Planks used as barricades use their current health as part of the barricade. If a plank is at half durability and is nailed to a window/door, that durability is the strength of that piece of the barricade. Wooden planks can also be obtained by ripping away barricades on houses (though planks may be damaged from previous attacks by zombies).
Construction
Wooden planks are used to make structures, including houses, bridges, and fortifications
Fuel
Planks can be used as a fuel source for some heat sources.
Distribution
Planks can sometimes be found in crates in a warehouse or any other shed/storage building. Wooden planks can also be retrieved by smashing down doors and by sawing logs into planks. A plank cannot be repaired.
