==[[Islekeep's Index]]==
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Islekeep_Index.png|thumb|right|Islekeep's Index]] 
The islekeep's index is an island-specific HUD element that allows players to confirm important information, switch gameplay modes, and manage island's various features. 

===Modes===
Selected mode influences how players interact with features and creatures on the island.
[[File:Island Sanctuary Islekeep's Index Modes.png|left]]
====Free====
Default mode
====Gather====
Allows player to see and gather resource nodes, fully grown crops and gather [[Island_Animals|pasture animals's]] leavings.
====Sow====
Allows player to plant seeds in empty crop plots.
====Water====
Allows player to water crop plots that are not fully soaked.
====Cull====
Allows player to destroy plants in cropland.
====Feed====
Allows player to feed animals.
====Pet====
Allows player to pet their [[Island_Animals|pasture animals]]. Has no effect on gameplay.
====Beckon====
Interacting with an [[Island_Animals|pasture animal]] from distance will make it come to player.
====Capture====
Allows player to capture animals. It is required to use an appropriate restraint to match the animal's size. Each attempt costs 1 restraint, regardless of whether capture was successful or not. Different animals have different capture rates, with rare animals (i.e., those that spawn in certain times or weather conditions) being harder to capture. If the player fails to capture the animal, it will either notice their presence and run away (despawn), or not notice their presence and allow for another immediate capture attempt.

===Main Menu===
The main menu consists of buttons by which players can confirm important information and manage various aspects of the island.

===Currency===
As development of the island sanctuary progresses, players will earn two types of currency - {{cowrie|seafarer}} [[Seafarer's Cowrie]]s and {{cowrie|islander}} [[Islander's Cowrie]]s. These are Cieldalaes-specific currencies to be used at shops that become available on the island.

Used to pay for expansions of the island through [[Pathological Pathfinder]]s. Can be also traded with [[Horrendous Hoarder]] in [[Cozy Cabin]] for various items or with [[Produce Producer]] for seeds.

Can be acquired from time-gated activities, most notably from [[Island_Sanctuary#Workshop|Workshop]] or by completing [[Challenge_Log#Island_Sanctuary|weekly challenge log challenges]]. Additionally, players can sell cropland's [[Island Produce|Produce]], pasture animal's [[Island Stock Stores|leavings]] or granaries' [[Island_Materials|Rare Materials]] at somewhat questionable rate.

===={{cowrie|islander}} [[Islander's Cowrie]]s====

==Hideaway==
<noinclude>[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Hideaway.png|thumb|right|Center of the Hideaway]]</noinclude>
The hideaway is south-western part of the island and it's player's base of operations. All buildings, pasture and cropland are located here.

===[[The Cozy Cabin]]===
<noinclude>[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Cabin.png|thumb|right|Cozy Cabin]]</noinclude>

===[[Granary I|The Granary]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Granary.png|thumb|right|Granary]]
After constructing a Granary, players may send a team of exploratory mammets on foraging expeditions to gather materials. Each expedition will yield some common materials but most importantly, set amount of specific rare material. 
After choosing desired expedition area and the number of days, mammets will venture out to gather materials, returning once per day until the foraging expedition is over. If player has paid for multiple days of expedition, they can still change expedition area without any additional fee. Expedition returns every day at the same time.
Granary can be built on any of the 5 facility plots, but only 2 Granaries can be built.
There are currently three available upgrades:
* [[Granary I]] - unlocks at rank 5, single expedition in one day will yield 2 rare resources

All landmarks have same effect and cannot be upgraded. 1/2/3/4 Landmarks increase maximum Groove to 15/20/25/35. Each landmark is functionally identical. Because there are more landmarks than plots, it is not possible to have all landmarks built at a time. However, after first building a landmark on a plot, players can choose to replace any landmark in a plot with another one with no construction time, although construction materials for the new landmark are needed.

* [[Towering Tree Fort]] - unlocks at rank 3
* [[Quixotic Windmill]] - unlocks at rank 3
* [[Boiling Bathhouse]] - unlocks at rank 5
* [[Lominsan Lighthouse]] - unlocks at rank 9

==Resources==
Island resources can be divided into 4 categories - common materials, animals' leavings, produce and rare materials.

===Common===
[[Island Materials|Common materials]] can be gathered from gathering nodes across island. They are not constrained by any mechanics like time or weather. They can be gathered endlessly. However, players need to have right gathering tools unlocked to gather specific resources. Underwater resources are accessible via standard [[Swimming and Diving|diving]] game mechanics.

===Leavings===
[[Island Stock Stores#Leavings|Leavings]] are produced by pasture animals after certain amount of time. Each type of animal has 2 types of leavings - common and rare. This, however, is not related to quality or rarity of said leaving. One animal can drop [[Sanctuary Fleece]] as its common leaving and [[Sanctuary Milk]] as its rare leaving, but other animal can drop [[Sanctuary Milk]] as its common leaving and [[Sanctuary Fleece]] as its rare leaving.

Animals always produce its common leaving, but rare leaving has only a chance to drop depending on animals happiness. The happier animal is, the higher chance that it will drop its rare leaving. Happiness is influenced by the quality of its feed.

===Produce===
[[Island Produce|Produce]] are products that have been grown and gathered in [[Island Cropland|Cropland]]. Every plant takes 48 earth hours to grow and highest upgrade of [[Island Cropland|Cropland]] has capacity of 20 plots. Each plot yields 5 produce, meaning that maximum amount of produce players can generate is 100 every 48 hours. 
Produce can be used to create higher quality feed for [[Island Pasture|pasture animals]] or to craft items in the [[Island Workshop|Workshop]].

===Rare Materials===
[[Island Materials|Rare materials]] can be only obtained through [[Island Granary|Granary]] expeditions. They can be used for 3rd upgrades of [[Workshop III]] and [[Granary III]] or to craft items in [[Island Workshop|Workshop]].

==Activities==
===[[Island Materials|Gathering]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Gathering.png|thumb|right|Gathering]]
Players can collect [[Island Materials|resources and materials]] on their island, which are then recorded in the islekeep's index, where players can check where the resource is located. Materials are usually not limited exclusively to this area. With few exceptions, each gathering node contains 2 different resources, but players can only gather them if they have required tools. If player can gather only one resource from node, then they can gather only this resource. If player does not have tools to gather any of the two resources, they cannot see the gathering node at all.

====Node Respawn====
Nodes have predetermined locations and use simple system where they respawn after player has gathered 10 other nodes. This means that players can keep gathering same 11 nodes in endless loop. However players cannot gather node if their inventory for gathered resource is full (limit is 999).
{{clear}}

===[[Sanctuary Crafting Log|Crafting]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Crafting.png|thumb|right|Crafting]]
Acessing the [[Sanctuary Crafting Log|Sanctuary Crafting Log]], players can create items using the materials acquired from the island. Crafting log has 3 sections:
* [[Island Tools|Tools]] - Either players tool which unlock gathering new materials or mammet tools used to expand island. These items can be crafted only once.
* [[Island Stock Stores#Feed|Feed]] - Food is used to feed [[Island_Animals|pasture animals]].
* [[Island Stock Stores#Restraints|Restraints]] - Restraints are used to capture animals.
{{clear}}

===[[Island Construction|Construction]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Construction.png|thumb|right|Construction]]
A variety of [[Island Construction|structures can be built]] on the island. Players must first access the logboard in front of a vacant plot, but they can check status and required materials remotely using "Manage Hideaway" from Islekeep's Index.
{{clear}}

===[[Island Produce|Crops]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Crops.png|thumb|right|Farming Crops]]
Players can plant seeds and get [[Island Produce|variety of produce]]. After upgrading croplands to level 3 at rank 7 and crafting [[Mammet-sized Cropworker's Tools]] at rank 8, players can pay [[Produce Producer]] for automation of the cropland. Players will not receive {{Islandexp}} '''experience''' this way.
{{clear}}

===[[Island Pasture|Pasture]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Pasture.png|thumb|right|Pasture]]
Players can capture animals, feed them and then collect their leavings. After upgrading pasture to level 3 at rank 7 and crafting [[Mammet-sized Pastureworker's Tools]] at rank 8, players can pay [[Creature Comforter]] for automation of the pasture. Players will not receive {{Islandexp}} '''experience''' this way.
{{clear}}

===Releasing [[Minions]]===
[[File:Island_Sanctuary_-_Minions.png|thumb|right|Roaming minions]]
One of each [[minion]], up to 40, can be released to roam free in the various areas of the island. As they while away the hours wandering about the island, players may find they behave differently when left to their own devices.
