You say Herman Melville; I say Evelyn Waugh.
'''Buildings''' have two main benefits for [[survivor]]s: protection from [[zombie]]s and the ability to [[searching|search]] them for [[:Category:Items|items]]. They can be secured, [[barricades|barricaded]] and cleared of [[dead body|dead bodies]] that might rise as zombies. In most buildings, characters are not visible from adjacent blocks. It is highly advisable for survivors to try to end their turns inside buildings.
You say Henry Miller; I say D.H. Lawrence.
You say William Faulkner; I say Virginia Woolf.
You say F. Scott Fitzgerald; I say Malcolm Lowry.
You say David Foster Wallace -- I hit you in the face!


There is at most one building in each city [[block]]; some large buildings such as malls and mansions occupy more than one block.  A wide variety of types of building exist within [[Malton]], as detailed below.
92% of readers have turned to American books. If you're part of the 8% who still reads real literature, scribble this message in the margins of five different books ! DON'T LET THE SPIRIT OF BRITAIN DIE!
 
====Tall Buildings====
A few specific sub-types of buildings are also always "tall" buildings.  Tall buildings are useful for committing [[suicide]] and using [[Useful_Items#Binoculars|binocular]]s.  Tall buildings are:
::::::::::* [[Building Types#Hotel|Hotels/Motels]]
::::::::::* [[Building Types#Tower|Towers]]
::::::::::* Any buildings labeled "____ [[Building Types#Building|Building]]" *
::::::::::::''(* This includes [[Necrotech building]]s)''
 
==Large Buildings==
Large buildings are those that cover two or more adjacent [[block]]s; most are a two-by-two block square. Once a [[survivor]] or [[zombie]] has entered a large building, that character can move around inside the building from one "block" of it to another even if the other sections of the building are [[barricades|barricaded]]. This makes defending large buildings especially difficult.

====Search Probabilities====
*With [[Shopping]]: only choice of store appears, the probability in each store is the same as in any other location (20% without light, 25% with, 10% in ruins), but you'll be getting items you're interested in. Also Gun Stores and Drug Stores don't contain items like [[Useful Items#Flare Gun|flares]] or [[newspaper]]s that dilute searches for ammo/firearms or first aid kits.
*With [[Bargain Hunting]]: in any store, about 35% without power, 50% with a running generator. Gun Store reveals in 25% cases guns, 75% - ammunition.
*Due to the recent [[news]] of changes to Mall search rates, expect much lower search rates in the Drug Stores.

===[[:Category:Forts|Forts]]===
*Rare: there are two Forts in Malton: [[Fort Creedy]] and [[Fort Perryn]].
*Dimensions: 3x3 block square of 7 buildings and 2 [[Building Types#Open Land|empty blocks]].
**Each fort has an Armoury at the centre, surrounded by various other military buildings and outdoor areas, all surrounded by a solid, impassable wall.  The only entry is via the Gatehouse, and there are other special fort movement rules, detailed below.
*[[Tactical Resource Point]]: they only have one entrance point to defend and most of the resources of a Mall. Their high profile attracts many survivors and zombies.
*[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Clothes#Fort|various clothes]].
 
*Fort locations:
**'''Armoury'''
***Unpowered Armouries are now considered [[dark]].
***[[Civilian skills#Tagging|Tagging]] the outside of an Armoury earns 2 [[Experience Points|XP]].
***[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Useful_Items#Binoculars|binoculars]], [[Useful_Items#Flak_Jacket|flak jackets]], [[Firearms#Flare_Gun|flare guns]], [[Firearms#Pistol|pistols]], [[Firearms#Pistol_Clip|pistol clips]], [[Firearms#Shotgun|shotguns]] and [[Firearms#Shotgun_Shell|shotgun shells]].

**'''Gatehouse'''
***Only way to enter and exit the fort (see movement rules, below).
***[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Assorted/Misc_Items#Newspaper|newspapers]] and [[Firearms#Pistol_Clip|pistol clips]].
**'''Infirmary'''
***[[Surgery]] heals extra 5HP (ie 15HP in total) if there is a [[Useful Items#Fuel Can|fueled]] [[Useful_Items#Portable_Generator|generator]].
***[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Useful_Items#First_Aid_Kit|FAKs]] and [[Melee_Weapons#Knife|scalpels]].
**'''Storehouse'''
***[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Useful_Items#Binoculars|binoculars]], [[Melee_Weapons#Crowbar|crowbars]], [[Firearms#Flare Gun|flare guns]], [[Useful Items#Fuel Can|fuel cans]], [[Melee_Weapons#Length_of_Pipe|lengths of pipe]], [[Useful_Items#Portable_Generator|portable generators]], [[Useful_Items#Radio_Transmitter|radio transmitters]], [[Assorted/Misc_Items#Spray_Can|spray cans]] and [[Useful_Items#Toolbox|toolboxes]].
**'''Training Ground''' ([[Empty_Blocks#Training_Ground|empty block]])
**'''Vehicle Depot'''
***[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Melee_Weapons#Crowbar|crowbars]], [[Melee_Weapons#Fire_Axe|fire axes]], [[Useful Items#Fuel Can|fuel cans]], [[Assorted/Misc_Items#Spray_Can|spray cans]] and [[Useful_Items#Toolbox|toolboxes]].
 
*Special fort movement rules:
**'''Body dumping''': dead bodies can be dumped outside of the Gatehouse at the cost of 5 AP. This also moves you into the Gatehouse.
**'''The Gatehouse''': both forts have a Gatehouse, which is the only entry point. 
***To enter the fort, you must move to the Gatehouse square from the outside, then enter the Gatehouse building. Because of this, the Gatehouse is the most important building in a Fort under any circumstances and especially so in a siege.
***From the Gatehouse you may move to other squares within the fort (but will always end up outside the target building, whether or not you have [[Military_skills|Free Running]]). 
***Clicking on the Gatehouse while located ''inside'' the fort moves you inside the Gatehouse, even if you were outside. Therefore, zombies are able to exit a fort, even through a "very strongly" barricaded (or less) Gatehouse.
***You can [[Military_skills|free run]] from the Gatehouse to any building ''outside'' the fort, as long as the barricades are not higher than "very strongly".
**'''The Armoury''':
***It is possible to [[Military_skills|free run]] from the Armoury to another building within the Fort, but not the other way around. ***You cannot [[Military_skills|free run]] into the Armoury; attempting to do so places you outside the Armoury and gives the message "''The defensive design of the armoury bunker prevents you from free running into it.''"
**'''Illegal movement messages''': several illegal moves use 0 AP, do not move your character and provide a feedback message:
***[[Military_skills|Free Run]] into the Gatehouse from outside the fort: "''The gatehouse only has a single, low entrance - you cannot free run into it.''"
***[[Military_skills|Free Run]] into any fort square (other than the Gatehouse) from outside the fort: "''The fort complex has been designed to be inaccessible from nearby buildings.''" 
***Move to a fort square (other than the Gatehouse) when standing outside the fort (or vice versa): "''The heavy walls of the fort complex are impassable, from here.''" 
***[[Military_skills|Free Run]] out of the fort (other than from the Gatehouse): "''The fort has no accessible exits or windows overlooking its exterior wall.''"
***Whilst outside the Gatehouse, attempting to move to another fort square: "''You must enter the gatehouse to reach the rest of the military compound.''"
***Free Run or otherwise move out of the Gatehouse to outside the fort walls if the Gatehouse is heavily barricaded or greater: "''There is only one way through the walls of the military base, and it's been heavily barricaded.''"
 
*Historical: when Urban Dead began, forts consisted of a single armoury block with eight empty squares surrounding it. Since then, they have been updated twice. The first update was on 20th November 2006, when the layout of the forts changed to its present form, and the second was on 14th August 2007, when it became possible to dump bodies from inside the fort to outside the fort's gatehouse.

===[[:Category:Zoos|The City Zoo]]===
*Unique: Malton's single [[City Zoo]] is situated in [[Ketchelbank]].
*Dimensions: 5x4 block square of six enclosures and fourteen empty blocks of [[Building Types#Open Land|open land]].
*The six enclosures have no [[door]]s, but can be [[barricade]]d:
**the Aquarium

**the Lion Enclosure
**the Reptile House
*[[:Category:Items|Items]]: [[Clothes#City_Zoo|various clothes]].
*Historical: All of the enclosures (except the Aquarium and the Reptile House) were sealed and locked at the start of the quarantine, and required [[Assorted/Misc Items#Wirecutters|wirecutters]] to enter, unless someone else had already cut the fence.

**Status Tracking: [[NT Status Map]], [[Necrotech Information Center]], [[NecroWatch]].
*[[Tactical Resource Point]]: the only source of [[Useful Items#NecroTech Revivification Syringe|NecroTech revivification syringes]].
*Notes:
**Office buildings owned by the company often associated with the zombie outbreak. From the outside, they are indistinguishable from other buildings, but characters with the [[Science_skills#List of Scientific skills|NecroTech Employment]] skill are able to recognize them; the building's name is displayed with "[NT]" underneath.
**Because of the importance of syringes and the presence of scientist characters that usually are weak fighters, the NT buildings are favourite zombie targets. The presence of scientists and syringes also makes these buildings popular among those zombies that want to be [[Revivification|revived]].
**General protocol for getting a [[Revivification|revive]] is to stand in an adjacent street, rather than directly outside the facility itself &ndash; standing outside, a zombie wanting a revive may be mistaken for an attacking zombie.
**Within a [[Useful Items#Portable Generator|powered]] NecroTech building survivors with [[Science_skills#List of Scientific skills|Necronet Access]] can:
***revive [[Brain Rot|brain rot]]ted zombies.
***make [[Useful Items#NecroTech Revivification Syringe|revivification syringes]] at a cost of 20 [[Action Points|AP]] (though it is more effective to search, with a 1/8 chance of finding one).
***view the locations of zombies tagged with a [[Useful Items#DNA Extractor|DNA extractors]].
***Note that these actions are available in '''ruined but powered''' NT buildings, making syringe manufacture slightly more useful and Combat Revives of Brain-Rotted zombies a viable ruin-clearing tactic.
