Roads can be paved with the Construction skill. Walking on roads increases movement speed slightly, but their main purpose is to help wheeled cart traffic.
Road Types[]
You can pave a Road by equipping a Hammer (Primitive hammer, Mallet, etc) and select the Pave option under the Construction menu when right-clicking the terrain.
| Terrain | Name | Walk speed modifier | Wheel speed modifier | Starting tool | Materials required | Skill required |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Stone road | Hammer | 30 x Rock | Construction: 0 | ||
|
Marble road | Hammer | 30 x Marble | Construction: 60 | ||
|
Slate road | Hammer | 30 x Slate | Construction: 30 |
- NOTE: Average walk speed modifier for non-road terrain is 1. But the average wheel speed modifier for non-road terrain is 0.85, so the road speed bonus is most beneficial to wheeled carts.
- NOTE: Testing shows that walking with a log is faster on Marble... More testing required.
