I usually make doors in both set of shop, and am careful where I put the high quality ones (bedrooms and high traffic area) and use the low-quality ones for other purposes. The second set of shops is for the builders to build blocks and stuff you don't need to be of high quality: floodgates, grates etc. The first set of shop is the specialists shop, this is were you build your furniture that needs to be high quality: table, thrones, statues, coffer, cabinets, armour stands, weapon racks and others. You also need an assigned manager to do this. To do so efficiently, and not lose on quality of furniture, I usually have two sets of mason's workshop. Once your fortress have more mandwarfpower and you want to embark on more ambitious mega-projects, you'll need a small army or masons to build your pyramids or gigantic pokeball statues. Good advice, this is pretty basic stuff but it's important to master it. If you are working with a limited resource of stone, be sure to disable that stone from any other stone stockpiles so they don't accidentally get used up and turned into other stone furniture or stone crafts. If you use the manager for other masonry items, you'll want to line up 10 orders to 'build blocks' set to repeat. Then set the stockpile to give to.and accept from the workshop and queue up nothing but stone blocks. If you want to make blocks out of a specific stone, build a mason's workshop and define a custom stockpile that only accepts the type of stone you want.and stone blocks of that material. They also both appear as veins and thus are not nearly as abundant as other types of stone. They are also both extremely heavy as boulders but easily carried as blocks. Good candidates for this are cobaltite and cinnabar, which are bright blue and red respectively and make your constructed walls and floor that color when used to build them.
Stone blocks are also more valuable as materials than raw stone, so your fort will be worth more if its outside walls are built with blocks rather than raw stone.Īlso: If you have a type of stone that you like for its color but that is available in more limited quantities, making them into blocks will let you get four times as many building materials out of each boulder, letting you stretch a modest supply into enough wall sections. Not only will this pre-train your mason so that their furniture can be of a higher quality, it also gives you a working supply of blocks, which are easy and quick to haul around and can be used to construct future workshops or constructed objects (b - C).
Stone blocks do not care about quality, but the mason will still get some skill ups from making all of them.
To give your mason a little extra boost, have them make a bunch of stone blocks before they start making your tables/chairs/doors/statues and such. Thus most early non-bed furniture and decorations are made out of stone.īecause furniture impacts the quality level of the dining/bedroom it is in, having your mason churn out higher quality levels of goods is a desirable thing. Not only can they make most of the required early furniture (besides beds) they can do so with abundant materials. The mason is a keystone to any young fort.
