As the title says im stuck inside my originally 1 foundation house, now 2 foundation, but I'm walled in without explosives of any kind, what do? Do I have to wait for it to decay or does it not decay because its part of my house? Any suggestions as to what I can do besides log out and cry? My house is on EU sleeper server hosted by playrust at checkpoint in the hills past the loot spawns if anyone is interested in helping me. inb4 suicide
not so strange. Now you know that have to prevent that. Easy way is to put a foundations before them and fill it with pillars, middle included.

Also in the future make sure your house has more than one entrance.

That way, there's no way anyone can put down foundations between your house and the barrier foundations, they can't connect the individual foundations themselves, and they'd have to go quite a long ways around the barrier foundations to wall you in.

Always build on a slope. Always put your entrance at the highest point facing up the slope, then your door can't be trolled. Lesson learnt
[QUOTE=Rain.Hat;42754806]Then you would be left with a 1 foundation house, which isnt as desirable either, I guess there's nothing to do but hope you dont get assholes who do this while you are building your house[/QUOTE] Well don't put down your foundations until you have enough for a decent size base and enough for the barrier foundations.

I can't protect myself in a shelter, and putting a metal door on a shelter is useless. Why is it so illogical to build a foundation with a door?

I know, it's a terrible solution but I've found it isn't really worth it to build a 1x1 house in rust. It's not enough space for your stuff and it provides basically no protection anyway, even with a metal door.
Learn to build anti grief. This will be a learning experience for you. When you start your first foundation 1x1 make 2 doorways with metal doors. Have one end of the foundation against a slight hill so that no one is able to build anything in front of that door and then expand your base out the other side. I wont even make a foundation unless I am able to make sure I ALWAYS have a way in and out of my base. Learn from your mistakes and build smarter, complaining about it on the forums will get you know where. Adapt or get left behind.
Same thing happend to me. I just hatcheted down the wall.

And yes you can take down ramps because that's how I got out.
[QUOTE=raphlaranja;42767436]I just was trying to get the guy to try to hatchet down the wall. He needs to suicide no way out. [editline]5th November 2013[/editline] Yah, ramps you can take out as well as barriers and wooden doors, no building materials though, except for sheds. Pretty much :D But I was once stuck and took out a ramp they placed infront of my house. And yes you can take down ramps because that's how I got out.[/QUOTE]

Otherwise, yeah there's just suicide. As for you trying to get the guy to hatchet a wall, that much was obvious and is exactly why I told him not to listen to you...
