Undead Patch Notes — Demolish Alliance-Controlled Outposts
New queued demolish action: 16 AP; with alliance control and build_modify, dismantle player-built or map-seeded outposts; storage drops outdoors; half materials refunded.
Date: 11 August 2026
Status: Live on production (11 August 2026; includes DB migration
0056_demolish_action)
This update adds a tactical Demolish action (demolish): inside an outpost your alliance controls, permitted members can queue demolition to clear unwanted posts and recover some materials.

1. Who can demolish, and what
| Requirement | Detail |
|---|---|
| Building type | Outpost only (outpost) |
| Control | Building controllingAllianceId must be your alliance |
| Role | Human; alliance `build_modify` (leader has it by default; officers/members usually do not) |
| Location | Must be inside the outpost, and no other characters inside |
| Origin | Not limited to player-built — map-seeded outposts count if your alliance holds them |
Demolish keys off who controls the post, not who built it.
2. Cost and resolution
- 16 AP, queued, resolves on the world tick.
- On success:
- Building is removed; footprint tiles lose the building link
- You end outdoors on the same tile
- Building storage dumps to outdoor ground
- Indoor ground items become outdoor ground items
- Refund wood ×4 and metal scrap ×2 (half the build cost)
- Checks run at enqueue and at process time; if someone else enters or control is lost, the action fails and AP is refunded.
UI: while inside an outpost, Operations shows Demolish Outpost (blocked with a reason when requirements fail).
3. Out of scope this pass
- No demolish for hospitals, police stations, warehouses, etc.
- No demolish without control / without
build_modify - No full material refund
- Not instant — waits for world tick
Try it once
- As leader (or with
build_modify), enter an outpost your alliance controls. - Ensure you are alone inside → Operations → Demolish Outpost → wait for tick.
- Confirm the building is gone, you are outdoors, materials are in inventory, and former storage can be picked up from the ground.
