Once Human - How to Move Territory and Base

Move your territory in Once Human by entering build mode. Find out how to move your territory and base, as well as where to move and how to expand your territory in this guide!

Once Human - Move Territory Button

Moving Territory requires the player to first enter Build Mode by pressing the appropriate key, which is B by default. After entering Build Mode, players can then press the Z Key to move their Territory and Base around for relocation.

Note that there are a few restrictions when moving Territory to a new location that may render an area invalid as a place to relocate.

There Is a 10-Minute Cooldown After Moving Your Territory

Once Human - Move Territory Cooldown

There is a cooldown of 10 minutes each time a player moves their base, meaning that repeated adjustments in a short period of time are not allowed.

You Can't Move to Another Player's Territory

Once Human - Other Players Territory

Players are also not allowed to place their Territory too close to another person's, so be mindful of other players in an area when relocating.

The Area You're Moving to Should Be Spacious Enough

Additionally, the area which the Territory and Base are being moved to must be spacious enough to accomodate the structures built by the player.

Where to Move Territory

Move to Areas with Access to Resources

Once Human - Resources in an Area

Moving the Territory and Base to an area that is rich in resources is a good option to consider when relocating. An area with access to lots of gravel and ore, wood, water, and food is recommended when moving around.

What is Territory and Base?

Unique Base Zone for Players

Once Human - Territory and Base

A player's Territory and Base is an area marked by their Territory Terminal, and it is unique to their character in the world. Characters within range of their Territory receive 80% less Energy and Hydration loss, and can turn it into a hub of helpful facilities to aid in their survival.

Players can teleport to their Territory by opening the World Map, selecting their Territory's icon, and pressing and holding the F key. This function has a short cooldown, but can be used regardless of distance.
