Building structures ​

Menyr provides a construction kit for houses, rooms and dungeons, built by hand.

Where to find it ​

The kit lives in the toolbox, alongside furniture. It holds the walls, floors and pieces that snap together.

Architecture carves the terrain ​

On an Open World board, walls and floors settle into the relief. That means you can build below ground level (cellars, buried rooms) without digging first.

Levels ​

On a Dungeon board, construction spans 111 levels (0 to 110), each 2.56 metres high.

Display is set level by level: everything above is hidden, everything below is dimmed. See Universes and boards.

Building fast ​

Two mechanisms speed things up considerably:

  • Ctrl + B puts the aimed object back in hand: you place several in a row without reopening the toolbox
  • Snippets copy a whole set and share it as a code

On assets that support it, pick the handle that acts as the pivot point before moving: that's what makes assembly precise.

Procedural generation ​

There is no automatic building or village generator yet. Construction is manual. Generators are planned: see What's coming.
