- The room must have a reinforced entrance.
- Once the aforementioned requirements are met, the player will be given the option to add a roof to the room.
- Players do not need to add a roof manually, as the game takes care of this automatically.
The player may be unable to build a roof if the walls are not made using the right materials or are not connected. Players must also use materials like planks or stone bricks to make a room with a roof.
