Overview

Suspension Bridge 4x1 is a suspension-bridge building in Timberborn that provides a short suspended crossing across gaps. The structure is five tiles long in total: one tile serves as the anchor point and the remaining four tiles form the suspension span that crosses empty space. Because the anchor occupies a tile on solid ground or on a support, a single Suspension Bridge 4x1 will span a gap of four tiles between anchor points.

The bridge’s design makes it a compact solution for crossing moderate chasms or river sections where a full-length bridge is not required. Two Suspension Bridge 4x1 units placed consecutively can span a longer gap; two bridges together provide an effective span of eight tiles. The component nature of the 4x1 piece means it is used to extend a crossing in modular increments or to bridge precisely measured gaps without excess length.

  • Length and span: the building is five tiles long overall, consisting of one anchor tile plus a four-tile suspension span; the usable gap-spanning portion is four tiles.
  • Combining pieces: placing two Suspension Bridge 4x1 pieces in sequence yields an eight-tile span when anchors/supports are arranged appropriately.
  • Placement implication: one tile of each bridge must be supported as the anchor, so plan terrain and supports so that anchor tiles rest on solid ground or compatible foundation.

The Chinese name for this unit is 吊桥4x1, reflecting the same 4x1 modular designation in other language sources. The bridge’s five-tile length and four-tile suspension span are consistent across referenced descriptions, and its ability to be combined with another identical piece to achieve an eight-tile crossing is the standard application.
