Walls and fences

Walls are impassable barriers that provide boundaries as well as prevent enemies from getting through, while fences guide citizens to where they are supposed to walk as well as keep animals from wandering away. There are three types of walls: palisade, stone wall and grand wall. And there are three types of fences: stockade, stone fence and wood fence. During an attack from enemies, they will attempt to destroy any wall or fence impeding their way, however, the better the material used to make the wall or fence, the longer it will take enemies to destroy it.

Walls can be created in two ways: the first is simply enabling the 'auto-build walls' option for a building during construction; the second method is leaving said option off, so only the building's interior is made, then adding the three aforementioned walls around the building's interior. This allows the player more flexibility in customizing building designs. In the second method, multiple wall types can even be placed against each other, further allowing more customization and possibilities in the player's design choices.

The boundaries of pastures will have a wooden fence by default, keeping the livestock inside. Walls added to a building will increase its isolation, which measures how secure and well-enclosed a building is, as well as preventing disruptive noise from being heard inside.
