In Aska, you'll need to build a thriving community. This can be done by finding a good piece of land and building upon it. However, it's not always easy to find such open areas, and sometimes you'll have to work with what you have. Thankfully, the terraforming tool can help you make the best of a bumpy situation.
Here, we'll break down how the terraforming tool works and how you can use it to optimize your village. No matter what stage you're in with building, you can always stop to terraform the land to better suit your needs in Aska.
How To Use The Terraforming Tool
When starting out in Aska, you'll need to build your own tools. One you'll need to reshape the land is the hoe. Once you craft the hoe, you can open the build menu and select the tool tab. The terraforming tool is the first option, so select that to begin.
Next, you'll need to select the height of your new flat area. Wherever you set the first marker will dictate the height of the corresponding area. Once you've selected your height, you can move the marker to create a grid that will be impacted.
Terraforming has not been optimized yet, and not every part of the grid can be terraformed.
It will take some trial and error to redesign the land.
Confirm the grid and get ready to work! You'll need to manually use the hoe on each square to level the area around it. The grid will disappear once all the green squares have been leveled.
This will help create a flat area to build on, limiting any structural concerns as you build a thriving village. Be patient and diligent as you work, as you're likely to encounter several obstacles while designing your new home.
Keep in mind that any resources impacted by the grid will disappear ! Harvest them first so they don't go to waste.
