Stupid question but yeah, there it is. I pitched a tent, put on my sleeping bag, and had a good night’s rest. Then I realized I have no idea how to take the tent down so I can use it again. Smashing it just damages it, it seems, so is there another way to take it down so that it isn’t ruined?

Stand in the doorway and examine towards the center of the tent

Tried (e)xamining a non-door tile? That’d be my first move.

Awesome, yeah. Examining the center tile is what did it, so thank you guys very much for the help.
