Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

Future Request: Significantly increase housing storage, both interior and exterior.

20 storage slots for a small house is nowhere near enough for all the housing stuff we hoard(people like changing their housing decoration/theme and housing stuff can be too expensive to just throw stuff out because you dont have enough space).

Increase Interior item limit & storage for all house sizes & apartments

on this note could we have some tables that are taller for the big races? my knees hurt....

My current housing wishlist is mostly based on functionality. With how the ward system functions I understand that most of this would realistically only work with interiors, and I'm fine with that.

1) Remove all placement restrictions(except obviously in the immediate vicinity of the entrance). Keep the option for surface adhesion for when you want it, but stop tying my hands for where I can put stuff. Let me put things on the wall columns, on the ceiling, inside other objects, etc. In ESO I used to hide lights in the walls so you could get the lighting effects without seeing the light itself.

2) Allow rotation on more than just the one axis. I should be able to rotate objects upside-down and sideways, with any combination thereof.

3) Remove the distinction between indoor and outdoor furnishings. Let me put trees and a boat in my house if I want to.

3) The housing UI is god-awful. The whole thing needs a complete overhaul.

4) Way more lighting options, with varying colors, levels of intensity, and effective light radius.

5) More furnishings in general. I didn't realize how limited the furnishing selection was until I started browsing the furnishing preview. Trickle-feeding one or two pieces every few months just isn't going to cut it.

There's more(there's always more) but these items would go a long way to making housing the robust feature it should be.

Interior:
Increase storage & placement limit for all house sizes & apartments
Circular entrances/ wooden & stone arches
Circular windows
Bay windows


Exterior items:
Pumpkin Patch
Giant Tree house (literal house with a door & windows)
Pool/ stone pool
Witch hut house
Hill house/ Mound house (like a hobbit)

Giant Oak Trees with roots

Patio Furniture
Tents
Radz at Han exterior items

I would like to see something in the similar vein as the unmelting ice lofts but in a verdant style. where the top would be level with a grass/flower theme and the bottom side would have vines/other foliage hanging down.

Also some collision fixes with the current verdant partitions would be a good QoL.

For the moment, all I want to request is a nice outdoor firepit that is just a little smaller than the Cold Knight's Cookfire and doesn't have the seating. As much as I like the Cold Knight's Cookfire, it's very bulky and doesn't afford a lot of options for different setups. Nor does it nest well with our various decks or the new gazebo.

A reasonably sized bonsai tree for indoors (it would make an excellent garden)
Indoor sand (instead of using carpet)
Indoor grass (Morbal does not count)
More door types
Make partitions and doors all compatible. Basically if there's a marble partition, there should be a marble door that goes with it.
Forever closed paper partition
4x sized wooden lofts. Basically it's the same thing as what we have but in a grid of 4 so we can use less space when creating ceilings, raised floors etc...
Remove "you cannot place this here" near stairway

Make a ceiling-to-floor version of the White Rectangular Partition
