HumanitZ: How to Dismantle Furniture
If you want to know how to dismantle furniture in HumanitZ, the answer is straightforward and works the same every time. You must have a hammer equipped, enter build mode, highlight the furniture, and dismantle it directly. As soon as those steps are followed, the object breaks down and gives materials.
What You Need Before Dismantling Works
Dismantling furniture only works if a hammer is actively equipped. Having one in your inventory is not enough.
A normal hammer works, but an improvised hammer works the same way. There is no difference in dismantling results.
Crafting An Improvised Hammer
An improvised hammer can be made very early using common materials found outside.
2 stone found on the ground
4 sticks gathered from bushes
4 fibers gathered from bushes using a sharp object
Once crafted, place the improvised hammer in your hand before continuing.
Entering Build Mode In HumanitZ
With the hammer equipped, press B on the keyboard. This activates build mode.
Furniture that can be dismantled will highlight when you look at it. If nothing highlights, build mode is not active or the hammer is not equipped.
How To Dismantle Furniture In HumanitZ Step By Step
Once build mode is active, dismantling takes only one input.
Equip a hammer
Press B to enter build mode
Look at the furniture until it highlights
Press X to dismantle
The furniture is removed instantly and materials are placed in your inventory.
Materials You Get From Dismantling
Different furniture gives different materials. Most objects give wood and nails.
Some indoor furniture also gives ruined cloth. The materials appear immediately and do not need to be picked up manually.
Where Dismantling Works
Furniture can be dismantled inside houses and outside structures. Location does not matter.
As long as the object highlights in build mode, it can be dismantled safely.
Final Blurb
Dismantling furniture in HumanitZ is a core early game mechanic that saves time and resources. Keep a hammer equipped, use build mode, and break down anything you do not need. Once the controls click, it becomes second nature.
