Try using the erase tool to erase the floor where you’d want a wall to be!

You've enough money and the materials?

#

Right. For actual walls it's "erasing" and walls are 4 "deep" and not just 1 tile.

You want to build the wall above the purple carpet correct?

robust pike
#

yes

sturdy warren
#

That won't work.

robust pike
#

why?

sturdy warren
#

You see those small squares?

robust pike
#

yes

sturdy warren
#

A wall needs 4 of those.

#

If you put the wall above the carpet you no longer have a hallway.

#

Question: You're still on the same day so you could restart it to get your stuff back?

robust pike
#

Yes

#

I'll restart

sturdy warren
#

Ok. Perfect.

#

Because that way you can just try things out to see what works and what not without loosing anything.

#

When you did the tutorial it was more of a "blueprint" where you draw the rooms to leave the walls for the doors to begin with.

What can I do now?

sturdy warren
#

To build a room on the southern side:

#

Go down first in a straight line.

#

Make it a bit wider at the bottom.

#

And then draw from the bottom to the top.

#

That way you have your wall at the top.

#

Thanks so much! I'll try this and if doesn't work I'll send a message here

sturdy warren
#

For the top ones basically the other way round to keep the wall.

#

Hence the question if you can still restart: Just play around a bit with it what works and what not and then just restart to get your stuff back.
