  • Make sure you have the Resources: The left side of the Build Menu will display the resources required to build the furnace.
    • 20 Copper Ore: Copper ore can be found by mining rocks in the world.
    • 30 Gravel: Gravel can be gathered by harvesting resource deposits and even from iron ores.
  • Place the Furnace: Once you have the required resources, click on a valid location within your territory to place the furnace. A green outline indicates that the spot is suitable for your furnace. Left-click to confirm the construction.

Make sure you have enough space to accommodate the furnace within your base. By following these steps, you’ll have a functional furnace in your base, ready to transform your raw materials into valuable crafting components.
