Wood stairs are a constructable tile from the carpentry skill.

Overview

Wood stairs can be constructed to allow access to higher floors, either for expanding a new building or reaching the roof of an existing one. When construction is completed, a single Wooden Floor tile will be placed at the top. Each set of stairs thus consists of three stair tiles, plus the wooden floor tile at the top, for a total of four tiles in length, and one tile in width.

Stairs can only be built facing north and west, can't be built under certain rooftops, and cannot be placed right up against walls or fences on the top or bottom ends, though their sides may be placed against walls without issue. They also cannot lead directly into another set of stairs; there must be at least one floor tile at the top of the first set of stairs and bottom of the second set of stairs. Take this into account when attempting to create complex multi-level structures.

Stairs are assembled and destroyed as a complete unit; you cannot have a stairway that goes up half a floor and then doubles back or turns to one side in order to save space. They cannot be disassembled, and must be destroyed with a sledgehammer.

Trivia

  • If you build a wooden floor attatched to the stairs tile, the tile will not be removed when destroying the staircase. To fix this, before destroying the stairs, destroy all of the tiles surrounding the top tile.
  • Using stairs to gain access to a higher floor, then attaching a sheet rope, and destroying the stairs, is a common tactic to protect against zombies.
