What each player can do here
- Gatherer: holds the axe or the pickaxe, carries wood and iron to the Storage wagon, and grabs the bucket when the engine runs hot.
- Track layer: takes finished track off the Crafter, lays it ahead of the train, clears the path when no track is ready and deals with the creatures.
If your skill levels differ: The wiki and Blueprinted both say only one player should lay track, and a lower difficulty means more resources and less unbreakable rock.Our suggestionWhen skill levels differ: give track laying to the steadier player, and let the newer player own one tool and keep resources coming. How to split the roles
Snow and ice
Part 1 of 3. Snow slows you; ice under it speeds you up.
- BothSnow slows you down, stops dashes, and two layers of it bury resources, track and tools on the ground.
- BothWhere there are no rocks or trees the ground is ice, and you move faster on it.
- BothThe Light wagon melts snow every 10 seconds, or every 5 with a Supercharger next to it; walking with a full bucket melts it too.
- GathererWalrus milk melts the snow under your feet.
- BothBlack rock under snow looks like ordinary rock; check before you swing at it.
- BothWater is still liquid and is bridged with wood.
Yetis
Part 2 of 3. They knock everything out of your hands.
- BothA yeti stomps the ground and everyone near it drops what they carry.
Before the Lava biome
Part 3 of 3. Change the train for what comes next.
- BothBoth guides advise selling the Light wagon before you buy the next engine, once its snow-melting job is done.
- BothFrom the Lava biome on, bridges are stone, not wood, so arrive with iron to spare.
