What exterior wall do you recommend?

It takes items that come back on airships to unlock the recipe. It's not a huge expenditure, imo, but we've also got 100s of the items sitting around because we've unlocked everything already.

Right. The walls themselves don't need the materials. They just need to be made in a FC workshop that has the prototype unlocked.

I don't want people to be discouraged about getting the things they would like to have because they think something is required that they won't be able to get. Sometimes it's just a matter of asking around to see if someone can help. I contacted Besame as soon as I logged on after her post yesterday, she gathered the materials needed for the walls and we made them in my FC's workshop tonight. Her house is now looking as sharp on the outside as it does on the inside.

Teamwork ftw

Teamwork ftw

Yep. I literally gathered and crafted 90% of what I needed for my large castle walls myself and had some cool fc mates donate the rest. Then they sat around with me for the 15 minutes it took to put all the parts in and advance through all the projects. I helped another FC mate with his otter house. I may start working on mats for Otter Mansion Walls myself. The other two mansions in my ward have the same mansion skin, so I might try something different.

Just wish you could put stuff in there in bulk. Having to go through and click 15 times per item per stage gets tedious.

That's the worst part, we're working on the newest submarine pieces right now and I'm so. Tired. Of clicking. I need to make another otter skin to sell but it's sooooo tedious.

The other omni-crafter in the FC and I have put in mats at the same time for a few projects. Still annoying but faster and less annoying for the person who would otherwise be doing it all. It can spit error messages if you're both trying to add the same material at the same time so one of us will do the ingots while the other does the rivets, etc.

I understand why SE set it up that way (so multiple players have the chance to contribute over time) but I doubt many if any FCs take advantage of that.

Imagine if you could use an interface like the Enclave donation basket. Pile all the mats you're using into it, it tallies them off, and then leaves it open for the few you still need in case you're letting someone come behind you and add something else later.
