A wood log can also be used as a [[peg leg]] to replace an existing or missing leg. A peg leg is requested by adding a bill under the pawn's [[Health#Operations|Health tab]].

Wood is used in the following crafting recipes:

Note that [[peg leg]]s, [[wooden hand]]s, and [[wooden foot|wooden feet]] do not exist in item form and are simply added to the pawn during [[surgery]], consuming the wood in the process. When extracting these parts, you simply get the wood back.

+
=== Deterioration ===
 +
Wood [[deteriorate]]s very slowly when left outdoors - a rate of 0.25 HP/day. For comparison, a wood log will take ''10 full years'' to deteriorate into nothing, before multipliers like [[rain]]. So, for all intents and purposes, you can safely leave wood outside. The only real threat is [[fire]].

Wood is a useful material for early [[wall]]s and [[furniture]]. Wood builds are quick to construct, wood itself is usually cheap, and most [[scenario]]s start with at least some. In contrast, [[stone block]]s take a bit of work to make, while [[steel]] is more valuable early. Later on, you should replace your walls with some sort of stone. Otherwise, a [[flashstorm]] or [[raid]] could light your entire base on fire. 
  
−
Results in the table below are the percentages of battles that wood logs either won or tied against the weapon listed in the first column of said table, with a sample size of 2,000 battles per result. Higher percentages are better.
+
In contrast, wood is relatively safe for [[door]]s and [[furniture]].
 +
* Wood doors are the fastest to open until [[autodoor]]s are available. The fire risk of a wooden door, when surrounded by non-flammable walls and floor, is minimal. For comparison, stone doors take a while to open, and [[steel]] doors remain flammable (and slower to open). Using wood for doors can be acceptable into the midgame, and even indefinitely if they are not intended to resist attack.
 +
* There is no specific need to replace wooden furniture, as furniture is usually safe from attack. Like with doors, furniture in an otherwise nonflammable room is usually safe from fire. Other materials might be selected for their improved availability, durability against [[drop pod]]s or [[infestation]]s, and beauty as the colony progresses.
  
 +
Colonies in extreme and wood-scarce [[biome]]s, like the [[ice sheet]] or [[extreme desert]], should conserve wood as much as possible. It should be used for [[campfire]] or [[passive cooler]]s until you can 1. create electric [[heater]]s / [[cooler]]s, or 2. get the necessary [[clothing]] to survive. For construction, [[ruin]]s can be deconstructed for stone/steel, and steel should be used for furniture instead.

−
* '''Flak - '''[[Steel]] [[simple helmet]], [[flak jacket]], [[flak vest]], plainleather button-down shirt and [[flak pants]]
 
−
* '''Marine - '''[[Marine helmet]], [[marine armor]], plainleather button-down shirt and plainleather pants
 
  
 +
=== As a weapon ===
 +
Wood is the one of worst melee weapons in the game, barely beating out a bottle of [[beer]] and a plain, unarmed punch. Even a good-[[quality]] [[eltex staff]]{{RoyaltyIcon}}, which is more of a psycasting tool than a weapon, has higher damage and AP. In most cases, players should at least craft a [[club]], rather than using a log as a weapon. Even swinging a gun or bow as a melee weapon will do only slightly less damage, while still allowing you to shoot as enemies approach.
  
−
{| class="wikitable sortable" style="text-align: center"
+
However, any weapon is superior to no weapon. If you have no other weapons available, and do not have the supplies or time to spare to create even a club, then equipping a log is better than having a colonist fight entirely unarmed.

Wood

Wood

Wood from trees or other fibrous plants. Useful for building structures and weapons. It is a good fuel for campfires and generators, and can be refined into chemfuel. In a pinch, a piece of wood can be used as a weapon or a leg.

    • Note that peg legs, wooden hands, and wooden feet do not exist in item form and are simply added to the pawn during surgery, consuming the wood in the process. When extracting these parts, you simply get the wood back.

    Wood is currently the only "Woody" material for stuffable items, like walls, doors, and melee weapons.

    Wood can be wielded as a melee weapon. It deals more damage per second than a bare fist or beer bottle.

    Wood is used to refuel the following:

    Deterioration[edit]

    Wood deteriorates very slowly when left outdoors - a rate of 0.25 HP/day. For comparison, a wood log will take 10 full years to deteriorate into nothing, before multipliers like rain. So, for all intents and purposes, you can safely leave wood outside. The only real threat is fire.

    Analysis[edit]

    StumpChoppedA (cropped).png
    		This section is a stub. You can help RimWorld Wiki by expanding it. Reason: Acquisition analysis, see table on Trees for initial basis, but add Woodmaker.

    Wood is a useful material for early walls and furniture. Wood builds are quick to construct, wood itself is usually cheap, and most scenarios start with at least some. In contrast, stone blocks take a bit of work to make, while steel is more valuable early. Later on, you should replace your walls with some sort of stone. Otherwise, a flashstorm or raid could light your entire base on fire.

    In contrast, wood is relatively safe for doors and furniture.

    • Wood doors are the fastest to open until autodoors are available. The fire risk of a wooden door, when surrounded by non-flammable walls and floor, is minimal. For comparison, stone doors take a while to open, and steel doors remain flammable (and slower to open). Using wood for doors can be acceptable into the midgame, and even indefinitely if they are not intended to resist attack.
    • There is no specific need to replace wooden furniture, as furniture is usually safe from attack. Like with doors, furniture in an otherwise nonflammable room is usually safe from fire. Other materials might be selected for their improved availability, durability against drop pods or infestations, and beauty as the colony progresses.

    Colonies in extreme and wood-scarce biomes, like the ice sheet or extreme desert, should conserve wood as much as possible. It should be used for campfire or passive coolers until you can 1. create electric heaters / coolers, or 2. get the necessary clothing to survive. For construction, ruins can be deconstructed for stone/steel, and steel should be used for furniture instead.

    Should your colony be visited by an alphabeaver infestation, watch out! These ravenous genetically-engineered critters will eat every tree on the map if you don't stop them by force! They will not eat wood on the ground or wooden buildings, however.

    As a weapon[edit]

    Wood is the one of worst melee weapons in the game, barely beating out a bottle of beer and a plain, unarmed punch. Even a good-quality eltex staffContent added by the Royalty DLC, which is more of a psycasting tool than a weapon, has higher damage and AP. In most cases, players should at least craft a club, rather than using a log as a weapon. Even swinging a gun or bow as a melee weapon will do only slightly less damage, while still allowing you to shoot as enemies approach.

    However, any weapon is superior to no weapon. If you have no other weapons available, and do not have the supplies or time to spare to create even a club, then equipping a log is better than having a colonist fight entirely unarmed.
