Suggestion: Terrain resource, mines and advanced transport systems
First of all, thank you for an amazing game – Timberborn is one of my favorite city builders. The way beavers move, build, store resources and reshape land feels unique and full of personality. I hope you continue expanding these mechanics even further.
One thing I’ve noticed is that dirt and terrain feel like a finite resource, which can limit creativity in late game builds. My suggestion is to add an infinite mine or excavation building where we can choose what to extract — dirt, stone, or minerals. This would allow more ambitious and long-term projects to thrive, especially in sandbox mode.
I’d also love to see more transport mechanics: ropeways, pulleys, cranes, and vertical lifts that move materials between layers or districts. This would add new logistical depth and open creative building possibilities.
Finally, adding new late-game systems like solar energy or advanced terraforming tools would perfectly complement the engineering fantasy that makes Timberborn so special.

Gin Fuyou AdminThanks for playing on behalf of the dev team!
And no, soil is not finite, excavator will produce it in any amounts -

ITALOThank you. Since there’s no explanation in the game, I always tried to manage excavation carefully to keep the landscape looking good, so I never let the excavator dig all the way down. Thanks for the clarification.
