Raft How To Get Dirt

It'south been a while since Redbeet Interactive'south open-world survival game Raft was released on early access, and the game has been widely acclaimed past both players and critics alike. The developers have done a pretty fine chore of keeping the player base engaged with regular content updates as well. One update in the game introduced livestock to the game, and the shovel was also added as a part of that update.

The shovel is one of the virtually important elements in the game. While information technology is used for only obtaining one item — that is, clay — dirt itself is a fundamental chemical element in bringing livestock to your raft. Dirt is used to make grass plots, and crafting grass plots is the only style to feed livestock on your raft.

How to detect dirt

Finding dirt is quite tricky since information technology is not bachelor everywhere. Dirt is only bachelor on large islands, and yous can find three to eight dirt patches on any of the islands. However, it is quite a rare spawn, so it is quite difficult to detect it. Most of the fourth dimension, dirt patches spawn within caves, and then it is worth checking out caves on big islands.

As far as locating big islands is concerned, you tin do so past getting the receiver and reaching the Radio Belfry. Before you can reach the Radio Tower, you need to craft the receiver. The receiver requires 8x Plank, 6x Plastic, 2x Circuit Board, and 1x Swivel to craft. Practice annotation that you need to accept a Receiver Blueprint before you can craft a receiver. You lot can find the blueprint in barrels that float around the ocean. In one case you have the design, research it on the Research table and the item can then be crafted.

Once you have the receiver, you need to craft 3 antennas. Antennas tin can be crafted with the help of 4x Bit, 1x Circuit Board, and 1x Bolt. In one case yous have the antennas, you lot need to place the receiver one floor above the foundation, while the antenna needs to placed on the same flooring, or half level above, or below the receiver. Earlier y'all can get-go using the receiver, yous need to have batteries equally well.

Batteries tin can be crafted with the aid of 1x Copper Ingot, 6x Plastic, and 3x Bit. You need batteries to turn on the receiver, and the bombardment continues to deplete when the receiver is turned on. So, you need to make sure that you lot turn information technology off when y'all are not using the receiver.

Once y'all plough on the receiver, you will get a code that will lead you to the Radio Tower, which is marked by a blue dot on the radar. To reach the Radio Tower, you just need to take a sail and the tower will spawn in the direction the raft is moving. Later on reaching the Radio tower, the receiver will start showing large islands on the radar. Big islands are marked past green dots on the radar.

Once you attain a large island, y'all need to start searching for dirt. As mentioned before, dirt patches are commonly found within caves and rarely spawn outside caves. You tin also find dirt patches on hills most vegetable gardens at times.

How to utilise a shovel

Before you lot start digging dirt, you demand to brand sure y'all have a shovel. You lot can obtain a shovel past researching it on the Research Table. To exist able to research the Shovel, players need to have a Metallic Ingot, a Commodities, and 6x Planks. In one case you take the Shovel, you tin can utilize it to dig dirt.

Another use for the shovel is finding treasure. If you take a metal detector, yous can utilise it to discover treasure on islands. Once all the lights of a metal detector are turned on, use the shovel to dig up the spot, and you have a take a chance to become a breast, garbage, a tiki piece, or a suitcase.

Afterwards you lot take obtained dirt, you can use information technology to craft grass plots. Grass Plots crave 2x Dirt, 6x Plank, 4x Plastic to be crafted. The plot needs to be watered, so the grass volition grow on information technology, which can exist used to feed livestock. The good thing is that you don't demand to craft a new grass plot every time, and so after all the grass has been consumed, you just demand to water it over again, or just use a sprinkler if you want to avoid the hassle of manually watering it.
