That´s a great idea, I will definitly try this for an improvised outpost, though on my mainbase I wanne roll with a wall this time and it´s almost finsihed anyway so yea ;) I used to keep mobs pacified by pushing tree logs against my base. Enemies won’t attack them typically because they’re not player owned objects. If it works, it’s far less effort to farm materials for.Thanks for the advice. Wall needs to be at least half the Trolls height to keep them out. Its not like they climbs straight up but it does need to be high enough that Troll doesnt step over it.
I have always dug moats because they keep trolls out and provide tons of stone for other projects.
Bases along the water I also fell trees into here and there as further obstacles for mobs. I haven't had one enemy get into my base in over 1000 days.
Only real issues are constant maintenance and lighting of my base for nighttime. TONS of resin used.
