Building

Building in Frozen Flame allows players to create different structures in the World

You can build by hitting Q to bring up the build blueprints OR hold Q to bring up build radial and can quick select items from there. you do not need to place a sentinel (your shield generator) first. you can build a small structure before placing it. typical building size is a 10 x 10 grid with the sentinel in the center & up to 4 stories with a roof, so technically 5 floors. You can upgrade a wall to be able to place a door or window (shutters) by pressing E over it in build mode.

Protection is default to "Friends" they can add onto your base, upgrade it, open any chest or station & even place items BUT any placed item by them will decay, it is not protected unless you the creator place it. They can however pack the station, give it you and you place it for them. Doors & stations can all be changed in build mode from protection menu.

SENTINEL; must use crystals to power it so that your base will not decay over time, it will not protect against pvp at this time nor mob damage. It seems to be a rule of 50flame/hour (1 blue crystal=1 hour protection) exception! higher grade crystals last longer. Red crystal (worth 1000flame) lasts for 24 hours (4 bonus hours) and yellow crystals like for 14 (2 bonus hours)

Orange crystals last for 4. Can hold up to 30 Crytsals, or 10 of 3 different ones. Has 10,000 HP and only the creator can add/remove crystals.
