- Additionally, your buildings must be realistic, I.e No 15 foot walls, corridors of death, stone barriers hanging from your ceiling. Keep your structures roleplay suitable. If you real buildings don't have it then you probably shouldn't build it. If you're uncertain then call an admin.

- The entrance to your base may only include two fading doors.
- A base perimeter wall must be placed on an already existing wall in the map, and can be up to the same height as the wall it is on only.
- Hobo's can build their homes on the street. As a hobo build small shelters, which are not in the way of any buildings or pathways / roads. (Note, police may tell you to move on if you're building in public areas)

- Three fading doors: Three fading doors: you can only use 2 fading door per base for an entrance minimum but overall every person in the base can use 1 fading doors to protect there miners or printers.

Exceptions to these rules can be made by Super/Server Admins in certain situations for some buildings/bases, however this is not a guarantee and is unlikely.

FearRP:

- FearRP is not a rule! Anything you are happy to risk ingame is allowed, running from thiefs or police is fine, as long as you are happy to accept the risk of dying or being arrested.
