Ward

Sunshine Alley Wards are different from the Vanilla game. Wards are for Individual use to protect your bases and property. Territories are used for communal facilities. Expired wards continue to protect your Base from being claimed by someone else. Note: Unwarded Bases are not safe from being claimed by other players Wards give a protected area of 32 metres. It is a cylinder of infinite height. Note: upon building base should always check if structal integrity is in order, wards can keep structures standing without proper support. so make sure, by turning off removing ward and also holding the building hammer for prolonged time so there is no delay in structual integrity ! Mob spawn: Unlike Vanilla wards, these will prevent mob respawn in its full radius.
