Manor Lords: How to Put Out Fires?
Learn how to put out fires to save your settlement in Manor Lords?
Fires are one of the biggest threats to a thriving settlement in Manor Lords. This guide will cover how fires start, how to put them out, and what steps players can take to prevent fires from causing widespread damage in Manor Lords.
Understanding the Causes of Fires
Fires in Manor Lords can start in two main ways:
- Lightning Strikes: During thunderstorms, lightning can strike buildings and set them ablaze. This is a natural occurrence that cannot be prevented, except by disabling weather events in the game settings.
- Raider Attacks: Invading raiders may attempt to set fire to buildings as part of their assault on the settlement. This can happen based on the chosen scenario settings, either in the first year or several years into the game.

Putting Out Fires in Manor Lords
When a fire starts, villagers will automatically rush to the nearest well to gather water and attempt to extinguish the flames. However, there is no manual way for players to put out fires. The key to ensuring fires are put out quickly is to have multiple wells placed throughout the village. This allows villagers to access water more easily, rather than having to travel long distances.
It is important to note that once a building catches fire, it cannot be saved and will eventually turn into rubble.

Rebuilding After a Fire
After a fire has been extinguished, players must prioritize repairing any destroyed buildings. This is especially crucial for Burgage Plots, as homeless villagers will cause a significant drop in the settlement's Approval Rating. Repair rubble as quickly as possible to restore the village's functionality and keep villagers happy.
Fires can be a devastating force in Manor Lords, capable of setting back a settlement's progress significantly. Remember to prioritize repairing destroyed buildings and keep resource stockpiles high to ensure the settlement can recover quickly in the case of a fire.
