How to Build & Upgrade

Add Constructibles to Your Wheel:
Equip up to 6 constructibles (8 with perks) through the Blueprint Wheel.
Place a Ghost:
With your hammer equipped, hold RMB, aim, and LMB to drop the “ghost” block.
Build It:
With the hammer still out, left-click the ghost to construct the real object.
Upgrade It:
Keep hitting with your hammer to reinforce the block — stronger materials mean better protection.
Tip: Strong walls mean longer nights survived. Always upgrade critical choke points before a Blood Moon event.

Unlocking and Crafting Constructibles

After each round, you’ll earn special ingredients used to craft new constructibles at the Workbench.

Open the Workbench:
Go to the Constructibles tab and choose what you want to build.
Check the Recipe:
Red numbers mean you’re missing materials.
Click “Craft” to Build It:
If your constructible wheel has an open slot, it’ll auto-equip; otherwise, assign it manually.
Assign Manually (if needed):
Open your Survivor Loadout, select a constructible slot, and choose the new build.
