Nightingale by Inflexion Games is a fresh open-world survival game where you can explore the post-apocalyptic world as a Realmwalker. As this game is all about survival and building to achieve success, it’s important to first learn some basic building. While it’s tempting to dive right in and explore every corner, remember that we need to start with the basics before we can advance. So let’s explore some tips and tricks for basic building in Nightingale. 

Basic Building Tips and Tricks in Nightingale

One of the key things to remember about Nightingale is that learning how to access the Build Menu is pretty simple – just press the B button on your keyboard and you’re good to go. 

B Key:

  • When you start out in the game, you’ll receive a bunch of basic materials to make your first building. 
  • You can choose between a crude foundation made of 5x sticks, 6x wood, and 4x plant fibers, or one made of 6x stone blocks.
  • Make sure to place your building on one of these foundations or you won’t be able to build at all. 
  • Once you’ve decided what you want to make, just hit the “place” button and it’ll give you a helpful outline to show you where your building will go. 

Now press the R Key:

  • To adjust the direction of the object, simply use the mouse wheel. 
  • Holding the R button while using the mouse wheel allows for fine-tuning the height by moving it up or down. 
  • After adjusting the height to your liking, press confirm to view the outline of the selected foundation.

Once this is done, press the E Key:

  • Press the E button to automatically add resources and construct your foundation.
  • We recommend aligning the piece with the desired location rather than attempting to manually adjust its position. This strategy can help save time when creating complex structures. It is important to also rotate and adjust the height to ensure the final result meets your specifications.
  • For assistance in collecting resources, consider the help of a Companion. 

Now to edit objects and structures, press the X Key:

  • Simply press the “X” key to access a new set of on-screen instructions detailing various tasks you can perform. 
  • These tasks include copying with “Q,” and moving items with “R,” and removing items with “V.” 
  • When removing items, remember to hold down the ‘X’ button to avoid unintentional deletion of desired items and to ensure that all spent resources are refunded back to you.
