Re: How to heat a building?
I think placing dried moss in between the logs is automatically simulated in UrW. Another historically used method was to slam clay on the walls. But cabin building in UrW doesn't explicitly mention all these details - it is just assumed that some method is applied based on materials locally available. I know a person who, in real life, used to live alone in the Finnish woods, and wanting to minimize boring repetitive tasks he also minimized time spent on making firewood. So in the wintertime he maintained indoor temperature of +8 Celsius, for anything warmer would've required spending more time chopping firewood, but the guy preferred to spend more time playing a flute, or crafting tools and clothes etc. But, to do that one has to compensate by always wearing warm clothes, and having a lot of blankets (or furs) on the bed. It might sound counterintuitive at first, but in real world a sauna building doesn't need to keep temperature as well as a cabin. In a cabin people would like to maintain a temperature in range +8 ... +18 or so, constantly. But a sauna can be heated up to +120 Celsius, and then allow it to cool down, and since no-one lives there when it is not heated, it doesn't matter if the temperature falls below freezing when the sauna is not in use. So, the sauna stove is built differently than the one used to warm a cabin. And the process of heating them is different - a sauna stove can be heated until many of the stones are red-glowing hot. Because water is applied onto the stones, there will also be a lot of moisture in the air, so it is only good that there is good ventilation - no need to tightly insulate every little gap and crack in the log walls.

Re: Need help with shutters.
Shutters will get correct alignment once you finish the interior (ceiling and floor)

Re: Cellars?
Any food on the cellar tile is considered inside cellar. If you’re efficient/lazy/have multiple sites (cabins/kotas/shelters) with cellars; you can during appropriate season dry meat&fish on the cellar tile with proper placement. No need to manually pickup and move to cellar. Once you get to the cellar, you’ll want to pickup the stacks and start eating, then cancel, to get the foods’ quality identified. Repay for all stacks. Then drop back in the cellar. Or take for trading/dog food/use. September 02, 2025, 07:46:27 AM |
