📋 About This Mod

This contains 2 buildings, both with the same purpose.  It provides a roadside shelter for you to spend the night when hauling supplies from one part of an island to another.  Both of these are setup with some role play in mind, of course you are free to do what you will.

The first (wayrest01) is for really early game.  It is made from wood and will give a comfort level of 6.  It has a bed, storage, a lvl 2 workbench to repair your gear, room to store your cart inside, and a hole in the floor to place a firepit.  This one does not need perfectly flat ground, I set it up with an early game ability in mind.  This is about 4x4.

The 2nd is more end game.  It is made from stone, is 1. 5 stories, and has a comfort level of 18.  It has storage, 2 beds, room for 2+ carts, cooking stations, and a fully leveled workbench and forge.  This version will require a larger mostly flat area.  Its is about 6 units wide and close to 20 long.  I would seriously suggest playing around with placement before finalizing.

As always, I very highly suggest backing up your world save before trying to add one of these in.  That way if something goes wrong (and by that I mean it gets placed in the wrong spot and you can't figure out how to undo it) you can just revert to your previous save.

Both of these buildings are saved WITHOUT terrain info.

Requirements:

Buildshare v 1. 5. 1

Before I thank all the usual folks, I want to give a big mention to my friend WetRats.  He started talking about wanting something like this and it rattled around in my head for a couple of weeks.  If he hadn't mentioned it though, I may not have built this.

Iron Gate Studios:  An amazing game.

Buildshare authors:  A great mod.
