Description
Mangrove logs are the core wood blocks of mangrove trees and they have a dark warm texture that fits swamp and coastal builds. These logs provide the raw material for planks, doors, fences and many other craftable items that belong to the mangrove wood family. They can be placed vertically or horizontally and they keep a natural bark style that makes them useful for columns, beams and rustic décor. In survival you harvest logs by cutting down mangrove trees and the log blocks will drop so you can carry them to your base. Logs are renewable because you can plant propagules and grow more trees in the right biomes which makes mangrove wood a sustainable building resource. The blocks are solid and provide good structural value for building, they support other blocks and they can be turned into slabs and stairs for architectural detail. Mangrove logs can also be stripped using an axe which changes the appearance to show inner wood grain and that gives builders options for contrast and finishing. Because they are wood logs they can burn if exposed to open flame and so you should be careful when placing for lighting and fireplaces. Mangrove logs are prized for their unique tone that helps give builds a distinctive style. They also interact with leaf blocks and roots in natural formations to form believable coastal trees that anchor mangrove swamps and provide habitat for wildlife and interesting building materials.
What is Mangrove Log?
A mangrove log is the solid wood block that makes up the trunk of a mangrove tree. It is used for construction and for crafting items that need wood. Logs can be stripped, cut into planks or placed as structural posts and they fit the mangrove wood family aesthetic with a darker warm colour.
Where to find Mangrove Log
Find mangrove logs in mangrove swamp biomes where mangrove trees grow near water and on muddy banks. They appear as the central trunks and branches of mangrove trees and often have roots and propagules attached which adds to the natural swamp look. Mangrove trees are common in these biomes and hunting these areas will yield a steady supply of logs for building and crafting.
How to get Mangrove Log
Harvest mangrove logs using an axe to break trunk blocks. The logs drop when cut and can be collected directly as items. For sustainable harvesting plant propagules or saplings to regrow trees where you have cut them down so you maintain a wood supply. Use axes to strip logs for a different visual effect and then craft planks and other mangrove wood items at a crafting table.

How to use Mangrove Log
Use mangrove logs as the backbone of a build for posts, beams, and rustic columns. Turn logs into planks to make floors, walls and furniture and use stripped logs as decorative accents. Combine logs with mangrove leaves and roots to create natural looking trees, docks and piers. Logs are also useful in crafting recipes across the game and they are a reliable basic resource for both survival and creative builds.
