Description
Acacia planks are the standard crafted wood blocks you get from acacia logs and they form the basis of many constructions and decorations. Planks have a smooth flat texture and a warm orange brown colour that makes them popular for flooring furniture and simple building walls. They are one of the most used materials because they are simple to craft and can be made into almost everything you need for a wooden build. From planks you can craft sticks doors fences pressure plates signs and many other items that are essential to survival and creative building. Planks are also used in interior design as floors and ceilings because they give a consistent colour that complements acacia leaves and logs. In gameplay planks are renewable since you can plant saplings and grow more trees to make more planks which makes them ideal for long term projects and large scale builds. When building think about how the plank colour works with light and other blocks because acacia has a distinct tone that can warm up a room. Planks are easy to place and remove and they do not block all light which makes them versatile for layered designs. Many custom houses and village structures use acacia planks to give a local feeling that matches nearby trees and environment. Overall acacia planks are a practical and attractive choice for a wide range of player projects.
