KnifeThe last resort hook. Very low durability; likely to break after catching one or two fish.

Rags or Paper or Oak Bark or Light BarkCan be placed inside houses (in existing fireplaces) to hide the light. Requires fuel (logs/sticks) to burn long.

Use this to start a fire if you have no matches. Has a chance to fail if it's raining or you are cold/shaking.

RagsPortable light source. Also provides heat. Can set enemies/zombies on fire if hit.

RopeUsed to MARK the location of a wall. You still need logs (shovel) and planks (hammer/nails) to build the actual wall. Can be picked up if no logs are attached.

RopePrevents items in your base from despawning (45-day refresh). Flag lowers over time; if at the bottom, your loot is vulnerable to cleanup.

RopeMarks a spot for a small shelter (Leather, Tarp, or Stick shelter). Great for solo woodland stashes. Stick shelters blend perfectly into forests.

RopeMarks the spot for a large tower. Requires significantly more resources than a fence. Can be built up to 3 stories high.
