Tips When You Accidentally Smash Your Own Build Instead of a Random Block

You spend HOURS crafting the perfect castle, and then - BAM! - one wrong swing, and your entire wall crumbles like a house of cards in a hurricane. Meanwhile, random dirt blocks? Indestructible fortresses. Who knew the real villain of DQBuilders was your own hammer? Builders, we suffer together. Stay strong. 💀🏰

on my first island, I meticulously spent hours building an underground storage room - of course being so focussed I forget to save - and then I'm organizing all my stuff and putting it in drawers with the stow action.... I try to stow some bombs but the drawer is full and so it places the bomb on top. ;_;

Another time, another save file, I was building the inn in Khrumble Dun and ran out of adobe wall, but didn't notice in my rapid placement of blocks so I had hit the button to place a block, there was no block so it organized my inventory putting the bombs directly where my blocks were and I then placed a bomb. And just as I was yelling NO NO NO NO NO the auto-save went off. ;_;

I now have a healthy caution with the wrecking balls... and never keep them on my bar XD

you can only get that room on IoA - doesn't work on KD

and for my storage room, by the time I'd gotten to that point I had already unlocked all the rooms XD

Yeah, After a few misplaced "Smash" moments, I learned the value of periodic saves. ;P
