22 Overview

44 Fences are low barrier pieces that enclose outdoor areas without the cost or full height of a Wall. Windrose offers ten fence pieces, including standard fences, hinged gates, palisades, and rope fences. They belong to the decoration and boundary layer of the building menu.

99 Fences Versus Walls
1010  
1111 Fences are waist-height and can be jumped over by both players and most AI enemies. They are purely decorative for base defense. Walls are full-height and block movement entirely.

1313 For defensive enclosures use Palisade (Logs) or the Stockade category instead of fences. Palisades are taller and have much higher Max HP (1,500 versus 750).

1717 Most fence pieces are cheap and meant for early bases. The Fence (Sticks) costs a single Plant Fiber and the Rope Fence unlocks automatically, so both are available on the first island. Log and palisade pieces use Wood, while the stone variant uses Stone. All standard fences carry 750 Max Health; the Palisade (Logs) is the outlier at 1,500.

1919 Plans gate the sturdier pieces. The Timber Pillars, Beams, and Fences plan teaches the log fence and log gate, the Palisade Walls and Gates plan teaches the palisade, and the stone fence is bundled with the Mahogany Staircases and Railings plan. The starter Woven Pillars and Beams plan covers the basic stick fence.

2121 Gate (Logs)
2222  
2323 Gate (Logs) is a hinged fence piece that opens and closes, just like a door. Place it at the access point of a fenced area. It works with Palisade walls as well as log fences.

2525 Tips
2626  
2727 Use Fence (Sticks) for pens and farm-plot boundaries on any starter island. Cheap, fast, and the Woven Pillars and Beams plan is automatic.Rope Fence is the signature pier-side look. Pair with Piers for a coherent dockside aesthetic.Palisade (Logs) is much sturdier than regular fences and is the right choice for defensive camp boundaries.Do not rely on fences to keep enemies out. Use Stockades for outpost defense; fences are aesthetic only.Gates (Logs) only open from a specific side. Plan the hinge direction before committing to the plan.
