Size of the Base
Approximately 18 squares in diameter
The maximum area you can use to set up your base is 18 squares wide, with the Palbox placed in the center. When placing a Palbox to make a base, you cannot build within the 4 squares surrounding the box. To create a clean base with foundations, build a floor in the central 4 squares (in a cross formation) you intend to install the Palbox.
Structures that are outside the base will deteriorate
Structures outside the base range will deteriorate over time, losing durability until they break. When building, ensure structures remain within the base range to prevent this.
You can remove or adjust structure deterioration in World Settings
You can prevent structures outside the base range from deteriorating by adjusting the Structure Deterioration Rate to zero in the World Settings.

Can the base range be expanded?
Expansion is not possible
The base range remains fixed at a diameter of approximately 18 squares and cannot be expanded. Fortunately, you can establish up to 3 bases by raising your base level; not character or Pal level. To quickly raise your base level, assigning specific roles for each base you create as materials may become harder to build in higher levels.

Bases cannot be stacked on top of each other
You can't install multiple Palboxes within the base range to connect bases and expand the range. Even if they're connected outside the range, the base range stays circular.

You can't build structures within the 4 squares around the Palbox
You can't build structures within the 4 squares around the Palbox. If you want to place the Palbox on a foundation or a building, construct the building first and then place the Palbox.
| Efficient Base Construction |
There are cases where Pals do not build a structure is at the edge of the base
If a structure is placed right at the edge of the range, there is a possibility that Pals will not build it. Make sure that you build your structures within the base range.
Pal Assignments may fail if the structure is at the edge of the range
If a structure or facility is at the edge or outside the base range, there is a possibility that the fixed assignment of the Pal will fail. Even if a message indicating a successful fixed assignment is displayed, the facility may still be removed from the fixed assignment, so it is better to place the facility within the base range.

Pals will not pick up items if they are outside the base
In structures like a ranch where items are dropped, the items that may drop outside the base range cannot be picked up by Pals. Even a slight protrusion from the base range will cause the Pal to not pick up the items. So, place the item-dropping facilities inside the base range.
What happens outside the base range
| What happens outside the base range |

| Cannot directly use the contents of the storage box |
| Pals inside the base will not work on facilities outside the base |
| Some facilities cannot be built |
| Facilities and buildings will deteriorate |
Cannot directly use the contents of the storage box
Outside the base range, you cannot directly use the contents of the storage box for crafting or building. When creating a storage box for your building materials, be sure to build it within the base range.
Pals inside the base will not work on facilities outside the base
If you place facilities near the base range but outside of it, Pals at the base will not work on them. Instead, the Pals on your team will perform the task. Work with the Pal in your team for tasks outside the base.
Some facilities cannot be built
Certain facilities, like the Breeding Farm, cannot be built outside the base. Even if you construct facilities that require Pals outside the base, there will be no Pals available to perform tasks. Make sure to install the facilities within the base range.
Facilities and buildings will deteriorate
Facilities and buildings outside the base range will deteriorate. Deterioration occurs as the durability of the buildings gradually decreases. When the durability reaches 0, the facility will break and cannot be recovered. You also cannot use the Repair Kit.
