If you're playing Tiny Glade and want to build a dock and a cute little boat for your landscape, this guide will walk you through the process step by step. It’s not quite as simple as you’d think, and we’ll have to get a little creative to make it work.

How to Build a Dock

Step 1: Create a Path for the Dock

Start with Pathing: Use the pathing tool to create a walkway leading to where you want the dock to begin.
Clear the Area: Remove any trees or obstacles near your planned dock.

Step 2: Use Fences to Build the Dock

Place the First Fence:
- Select the fencing tool and slowly left-click to place the fence at the start of your dock.
- Adjust the height by right-clicking and using the adjustment arrows to lower it.
Add More Fences:
- Place the next fence at a slight distance from the first one. Be careful not to place it too close, or the fences will automatically connect and warp.
- Adjust the height and alignment of each fence so the dock is even and straight.
Repeat the Process:
- Continue adding fences one by one, extending your dock over the water.
- Use the arrows to align the fences and make sure the height is consistent.

Step 3: Add Steps (Optional)

Use Pathing for Steps:
- Place a small section of pathing at the base of the dock to create steps.
Adjust the Height:
- Use the height adjustment arrows to align the steps with the dock.

How to Build a Boat

Step 1: Lay the Boat’s Frame

Start with Fences:
- Use fences to create the outline of your boat. Place them parallel to form the sides and connect them at the front and back to form the boat’s shape.
- Adjust the height of the fences to make them shorter, giving your boat a realistic look.
Make the Front of the Boat:
- For the tip of the boat, place a shorter fence at the front and angle it slightly inward.
Adjust for Evenness:
- Use the right-click arrows to ensure all fences are even and aligned. This creates a neat and polished frame.

Step 2: Add a Floor to the Boat

Place Pathing:
- Lay a path inside the frame of your boat. This creates the floor and stabilizes the structure.
- If the water is deep, use the path to elevate the base of your boat.
Adjust the Path’s Height:
- Align the path with the sides of the boat using the adjustment arrows.

Step 3: Add Final Touches

Close Off the Back:
- Place a fence at the back of the boat to complete the frame.
- Adjust its height and alignment for a clean finish.
Decorate the Boat:
- Add small details like lamps or floral decorations to make your boat unique.
Smooth Out Any Warped Sections:
- Check for any warped areas and use the adjustment tools to fix them.

Building Tips

Take Your Time: Building docks and boats requires patience. Work slowly and adjust each section carefully.
Use Pathing Wisely: Pathing helps create a sturdy base for your dock and boat, especially over water.
Experiment: Don’t be afraid to try new designs or add creative elements like flags or extra details.

Enjoy Your Creation

Once your dock and boat are complete, take a moment to admire your work! Use the in-game time controls to view your creation at sunrise or sunset, and capture screenshots to share with friends. Building in Tiny Glade is all about creativity and making your world beautiful—so have fun!
