The Tek Hatchframe is the final available hatchframe. A hatchframe functions as a ceiling, providing protection from the elements and giving bonuses to hypo- and hyperthermic insulation, but with the addition of a hole to allow entrance and exit.

Construction[]

A Tek Hatchframe can be placed on any Tek Foundation Foundation, Tek Fence Foundation Fence Foundation, Tek Ceiling Ceiling (with the exception of the Thatch Roof Thatch Roof), Tek Wall Wall, or another hatchframe.
A Tek Trapdoor Trapdoor can be placed in the hole and locked to provide a way to restrict access to the structure while still allowing you and your tribemates a way through.
A hatchframe requires support from a nearby foundation or pillar in order to be placed. The hatchframe can only be placed up to 2 ceilings away in any direction on the x or y-axis, and up to 1 ceiling away diagonally from a wall or another ceiling that is directly above a connected foundation or pillar. The hatchframes on the far ends of this setup will not be able to support walls.

Notes[]

  • The Tekgram is obtained by defeating Megapithecus Megapithecus on easy difficulty.
  • The insulation provided by a house is not affected by hatchframes, whether the trapdoor is open, closed, or missing.
  • If a hatchframe is destroyed, any building pieces that rely on it for support will be destroyed as well. If it was destroyed via the demolish option, no resources will be refunded for these extra building pieces.
