Road construction is vital for increasing land-transport efficiency and consists of three basic steps:
A mattock can be used on dirt-type blocks similarly to a Chisel. When used in the default block mode, a mattock will tamp these blocks down with ПКМ. If the mattock was used to tamp mud or muddy roots, the resulting tamped mud must be remediated by applying crushed base course.
After the local soil has been tamped down, the next step is to lay a base course for the road. Crushed base course can be crafted with either gravel or stone dust mixed with loose rocks, and can be applied to tamped blocks via ПКМ. This base course of crushed rocks creates a sturdy base for the final walking surface to rest upon.
The final step in creating a road is laying the road surface. Different items, including Bricks, Hoggin, and Loose Rocks can be applied via ПКМ on top of a base course to form a walkable road. Different items result in different varieties of road, and different varieties of road allow for various boosts to walking speeds.
Process of tamping, applying base course, and paving with bricks.
Hoggin is a compactible groundcover made from a mixture of clay, gravel, and sand. It can be applied on a base course to produce a simple path that offers a modest 10% Boost to walking speed and allows Animal Cranks to run at 16RPM.
Road construction via hoggin mix.
A small amount of Gravel Fill can be applied to a base course to produce a simple path that offers a modest 10% Boost to walking speed. Additional gravel fill can be added and tamped to create a Macadam Road that gives a 20% Speed Boost.
All paving materials above hoggin will allow Animal Cranks to run at 32RPM.
Road construction via gravel fill.
A variety of different stone walking surfaces can be applied over a base course, and all provide a 20% Speed Bonus.
Road construction via various stone finishes.
Concrete roads offer a 30% Movement Speed Bonus when properly constructed. However, road builders must be diligent when constructing concrete roads to prevent them from cracking or being trodden on while wet, as this will remove the speed bonus.

Concrete Roads are poured from Wet Concrete Mix. First, Combine water with stone dusts and a binder such as gypsum or clay to produce Liquid Concrete. Then, dilute the liquid concrete with water to produce Wet Concrete Mix. Ready for pouring.
После того, как Влажный бетон будет замешан, его можно собрать в ведро и поместить на Основание покрытия, где он растечется по соседним блокам. Бетон затвердеет через день, и до его затвердевания необходимо следить за тем, чтобы никакие существа не ходили по влажному бетону, так как это создаст неровную поверхность, не дающую бонуса к скорости. Следы можно разгладить с помощью Кайло.

Shrinkage cracking is also a concern as concrete sets. If concrete is poured in areas more than 4x4 blocks wide, blocks that are farther than two blocks from the nearest Edge, Control Joint, or Textured Finish will crack when set. This can be prevented by pouring concrete in smaller areas, using a Mattock to add Control Joints, or by applying a Textured Finish.

Textured Finishes are created by pressing Bricks, Flagstones, or Smooth Stone Blocks into drying concrete to create an architectural finish. These blocks also act as Control Joints for preventing cracking. Once concrete has finished drying, a Chisel can be used to form slabs and stairs.

Road construction via concrete pouring.
Asphalt roads are an advanced road type relying on oil and TFG production lines.
After preparing the base course, you can pour Asphalt Mixture over it. It will briefly become Hot Asphalt before solidifying into a durable Asphalt Road.
A properly built asphalt road gives a 40% Movement Speed Bonus.

В отличие от бетонных дорог, асфальт не требует жёсткого контроля при заливке, он не покроется трещинами и повредится, если наступить на него до застывания.
Но будь осторожен при работе с Горячим асфальтом, если ты наступишь на него, ты получишь урон. Поэтому носи защитное снаряжение при работе с ним. Важно, при ломании асфальта тебе выпадет Кусок асфальта заместо полноценного блока дороги.
Основным сырьём для асфальта является нефть. Затвердейте Нефть, Лёгкую нефть, Тяжёлую нефть и т.д. в Жидкостном отвердителе для получения соответствующих Смоляных блоков, затем обработайте их в Экстракторе, чтобы получить Кусок смолы.
Смешай кусок смолы и Каменную пыль в Миксере для создания Асфальтного наполнителя. Добавь Пыль гильсонита для увеличения количества наполнителя.
Затем смешай наполнитель с песком, каменной пылью и Дроблённым основанием покрытия для получения жидкой Асфальтной смеси.
Храни её в резервуарах для быстрой транспортировки и заливки.

ПКМ a placed Base Course Block with a bucket of Asphalt Mixture to pour it. The mixture spreads to adjacent base course blocks, converting up to 20 adjacent base course blocks into Hot Asphalt. After a short time, hot asphalt cools into Asphalt Road. Shift-ПКМ on a Base Course Block with the mixture to patch a small area, consuming less fluid.
Hot Asphalt is very hot; touching it will cause ongoing burn damage. Wear heat-protective gear when working with it.
Once it cools into an Asphalt Road, the surface is no longer hot.
Асфальтная дорога может быть превращена в Плиту из асфальтной дороги и Ступеньки из асфальтной дороги, для этого используй режимы обработки блоковКайлом или камнерез.
The most distinctive customization feature of asphalt roads is road marking: Spray colors and patterns on the finished surface to plan lanes, intersections, and warning lines.
Various stencils can be crafted at an Artisan Table.
Hold a Spray Can in one hand and optionally a Road Marking Stencil in the other, then ПКМ on an asphalt road to paint it. The color is determined by the spray can, and the orientation by the player's direction.
Spraying again on an existing marking will replace it and consume spray can durability, unless the same exact layout is used.

Используй Аэрозоль (Растворитель) на асфальтной дороге для удаления разметки.
При поломке любого вида из асфальта, вместо обычного блока, тебе выпадет Асфальтовый щебень. Ты можешь переработать его в небольшое количество асфальтной смеси используя Экстрактор
The Paving Cart is a specialized cart used for laying down road surfaces quickly and efficiently. It can be filled with Road Materials and Crushed Base Course and then attached to a Horse with Клавиша действия to create roads as you travel. The cart can also fill in any existing base course blocks.
The blades of the paving cart will lower with ПКМ indicating that the cart will plow roads when moved.

The cart allows you to adjust the width of the path in the GUI, opened with Shift-ПКМ.


The cart has a mode that will lay down paving materials in a random pattern.
