In The Forest, building destruction occurs when player-made structures sustain enough damage to collapse. This damage can result from hostile enemy attacks, environmental hazards, or even player interference. Server hosts have the ability to customize building destruction settings, allowing them to tailor the gameplay experience—from relaxed, creativity-driven environments where structures are safe, to intense survival scenarios that demand strategic defense and resilience.
