Fences are structures that are passable by all pawns except farm animals, and can be used in combination with walls, doors, and fence gates to enclose a pen.

Acquisition

The fence constructed out of 1 Stuff (Metallic/Woody/Stony, 10 for SMVs).

Summary

In combination with the above mentioned structures, the fence is used to enclose a pen. Be aware that predatorial animals can enter pens by jumping over.

Analysis

Fences provide a cheaper and more accessible way of creating a pen (colonists can walk over to do what they need to do, unlike walls), but have the weakness of enabling predators to eat your farm animals, if the predator happens to wander into the pen.

Fences slow movement and cannot be stood on. This can be useful for slowing the enemy without providing much cover, and for blocking one side of walls, barricades or sandbags to deny their usage to the enemy. However, fences are not durable* and can be easily destroyed during firefights.

(* Wooden fences have about 1/8 the hit points of a wooden barricade, 1/12 of cloth sandbags, and stone fences are only about twice that.)
