Technologies/Shelter

Shelter

Shelter Technologies are where Braves are spawned, and the only way to increase a village's population capacity. They usually consume Food to produce one Brave, and must be occupied by at least one Brave to produce. Shelter Technologies also determine how sturdy all of your structures are against the four main elemental hazards: fire, rain, wind, and snow.

A basic hut made from Clay that can help get your town growing quickly.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

Clay Huts are a basic Shelter that can be useful to kick-start a town. Because of its Eagerness property, getting a reliable food supply is less of an immediate priority. However, Clay Huts are vulnerable to almost all weather, don't provide very much population, and can't use attachments.

Rarity:	Legendary
Chance to Appear:	0.5%
Single Use:	Yes

A unique single housing structure that can only be built once but consistently produces Braves and can also build canoes.
— Kainga Encyclopedia

The Gosanke Harborhouse is the only Shelter Technology that can only be built once per Challenge. It provides 30 population from the get-go, and enables you to build Canoes right away. (Note, however, that this limits your population to 30 for the entire Challenge—you can't build more than one Harborhouse.) The Harborhouse is a somewhat flexible structure, requiring only a 4×4 footprint despite taking up a 9×9 space visually. Despite its initial appearance (on the water), this 4x4 segment must be on land. Once built, your Thinker gains the Canoe inspiration, letting you build Canoes anywhere on the water without needing to build a Canoe Dock first.

Unlocking the Harborhouse is a little tricky. In order to unlock it, you must:

Spoiler:

1. Visit Pebbles or Greenleaf
2. Defeat or befriend the nomads living on the Harborhouse that spawns on the map
3. Send your Thinker to the Hearth located on the Harborhouse

Note that due to the way that the above process is tracked by the game, it is currently not possible to unlock the Harborhouse using Serrano.

Ringhouses are unique because their placement is limited to only the circle of territory claimed by the Hearth upon being built. Once a ring has been completed, no more Ringhouses can be built. However, this placement limitation can be expanded through Technologies such as the Firetower Hearth, and it is possible to build more houses at other elevations (provided you can access them).

Attachments are built at the rear of a Ringhouse, which can significantly improve space utilization (since attachments can be built outside the territory radius so long as the Structure they're attached to are inside).
