Castle Story Basics: Wooden Forts, Bridges, Multiple Floors | Tutorial

2012-10-20
hey everyone this is Steve from gamers Nexus Donna and we were playing some more castle story prototype version of castle story I should say and I'm going to do a quick tutorial on how to build wooden structures like this one over here which is it's kind of like a Lincoln Logs design really and we will also talk about wooden bridges and when they are applicable and stone bridges like that one on the background back there so as you can see I have built this very simple wooden structure and it's kind it's kind of cool you can make a watchtower or something so the main thing though with the structure sorry sorry for sipping back and forth the main thing is that you can make an elevated floor so the elevated floor or the ceiling in this case the roof is a little bit tricky to make just because the way the prototype functions right now so let's go ahead and just make one of those so I can show you how to actually lay those out these can also be used in your castles if you would like to build a multi-story castle so do you keep that in mind if that's what you alternately plan to do first you need to place down the the support beams they can be no more than six spaces in between or seven apart total one two three four five six that's the in-between in-between section and we'll do seven so now my floor can be could be six across using planks there will be three planks and the middle section as you will see must must be filled in after these side sections are three four five six okay and then last one there we go so pretty simple right you just find some flat ground and place those down now we need some cross beams to support them to support the actual planks that is so let's find the come on game come on let's find a place to let us put some of those down easily sometimes the game does take a bit of fidgeting as it is a prototype so keep that in mind as well you may need to they're exactly like that you may need to move your blocks around a little bit just right click to rotate and then it'll eventually find its spot there we go so we need to do that on both sides come on there this game up yeah there you scam is like it's like an accomplishment even clicking on things sometimes but it's still fun and it's worth it you know we asked for a prototype and we got one let's we can fill the third one and now you can't fill the middle section in until these side sections are complete so as with the planks that is true with the beams now we can place down the planks long ways preferably and the easiest way I've found to click on this because you'll see it kind of goes all over the place I just click exactly where I want to put it you angle the mouse don't angle the plank itself so let's let's put these down where they belong if I could get some interaction there come on there we go okay like everything else so click on the sides of the planks to put down more next to them and fill that whole space out we're going to do that on both sides once this is done we'll fill in the last row which will of course be more planks and in the middle so I'm going to go ahead and place these down after this we'll move on to the the wooden bridge which is quite simple it is useful for connecting multiple structures if you don't want to use stone like if you want to make a fortress out of wood because that's kind of cool so if you want to connect them you can use actually a wooden bridge out of logs which will need to be built from both sides but it's pretty sweet the if you build a stone bridge which I will also briefly go over you don't have to build it from both sides you can build it from only one side making it ideal for for connecting two islands that you have not yet connected with so stone bridges are much easier to to use in that regard but we will go over both so now that we have that done your next step of course is to fill it around with stones and make a sweet castle or whatever you want to do okay our next part of the tutorial is building a bridge so you can see I've cleared out a bit of the forest I also had to reload the game because it was glitching so we are going to build a pretty simple bridge right now it is is there are a couple different designs the first one I'm going to do is just using let's build a little closer just using these types of logs the vertical columns and we will put a sort of base board there and then you can build them any distance apart from each other I'm going to go with one two three four five six seven just sticking with our our sixteen and let's get these Britt Ron's building so basically this I like to use these between between the wooden structures although you can also use them to build to other islands so let's say I wanted to build I don't know over to that Island I suppose be much easier to pick one of the same height but you would probably you would be able to use a catapult to launch someone to the island and then build from both sides as is necessary with this structure however the stone structure again will get by that we need to play some here just like our previous are elevated floors you can also use planks for this but I can't stand planks because they are quite hard to work with so I'm going to stick with these and obviously this isn't really elevated off of anything but it is a bridge nonetheless so for all of our purposes you can see how it works and that's going to be the bridge layout we can grab a trusty brick drawn here judge B joob joob G I don't know what his name is so okay we're gonna he's fighting me to go back to work but that's how the bridge works so now you can make your own brick Tron Olympic training course or something I don't know and here's what our applied concept looks like this is our bridge with two of these structures that have the elevated floors or ceilings and I have a I have an improvised bridge here I ran into problems they weren't quite far enough apart I thought they were six barp they were only five so I ended up doing a kind of cool pass-through bridge it's actually more like a gatehouse now and I'm very happy with the results so we can see here this is I'm a hit delete to get rid of that rubble this is what we ended up with and it is a pretty cool design all right now for the final part of our tutorial I'm going to show you how to make a quick stone bridge that does not require brick sean's on both sides and we see here I have actually deleted part of my bridge to show you this we are going to use the arches and the stairs and a couple of normal bricks so first of all you just find where wherever you are starting it doesn't matter if it's on the ground or part of a bridge already you place the arches on the edge just like that you can line up stairs of course if you would like to actually be able to reach them and well you can reach them any way but it makes it a bit faster and then you just keep on doing that until you eventually get across now of course you can also put normal bricks here just like that you can also use logs of course if you'd rather have a straight bridge but this is indeed one of the easier ways to do a stone bridge and and then of course you can curve it down on your way on your descent to the other side so once you reach kind of the halfway point you can just arch it the other way of course you will have to be on the the other side to properly do that so that is that's pretty much the design for a stone bridge hopefully that helps if you have any questions at all again please post them below and that's it for this tutorial so please like comment and subscribe for more videos and ask us for other tutorials if you'd like to see them and I will see you guys next time peace
