99 Nights: protect your logs from rain with Wood Rain Storage

Evergreen guide. Researched October 14, 2026.

Quick answer

Put fuel wood inside Wood Rain Storage before rain arrives. Exposed logs can become wet and stop working as campfire fuel; a pile beside the fire is not protected simply by being close.

Requirements

The cross-checked recipe needs Crafting Bench level 2 and 5 Scrap/Metal. Check the cost displayed in your session before crafting.

Steps

1. Unlock the second bench tier.
2. Recycle metal until you have the Wood Rain Storage cost.
3. Craft it and place it somewhere accessible in camp.
4. Put fuel logs inside before it rains.
5. Take protected wood out when the campfire needs fuel; keep crafting wood separate.

Decisions and mistakes

If you pile up logs outside, protecting them reduces reliance on logging during bad weather. If the fire is about to go out, refuelling takes priority over organizing the base. Do not leave logs beside storage and assume they are inside.

Limits and success check

The structure protects stored wood: it does not stop rain draining the campfire or guarantee instant drying of already-wet logs. Checklist: bench and recipe checked, logs inside, and a protected piece taken out after rain that can fuel the fire.
