Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

Tacking onto that, it would also be nice if you could move your house to any point on the plot and align your door directly to your garden gate. Maybe some people would prefer to have a backyard instead of a front yard, so they move their house forward or shift it left or right (if there's enough space to do that).

That would be ideal… like maybe when you use the building permit, the orange square for the house appears and you can place it within the yard and then it puts the house where you placed the square.

The only issue I see is that you could technically place the house in such a way that it’s right up against the opening of the fence, but they could just make it turn purple/unplaceable like it already does for furnishings it doesn’t like the placement of.

One thing I really love about Elder Scrolls Online is the ability to put mounts and minions anywhere on your property. Granted its a much different system with giant yards on some houses, so I dont think mounts would be realistic. Minions I think could be though. Island sanctuary really got me missing that feature.

Let me put cats in my house and live my crazy cat lady life, Square.

They could make a few options for us to place the house when we build it, to make up for the entrance variation and to prevent issues like this. It wouldn't be perfect in the sense that it wouldn't be fully free for us to do whatever we want, but I think it's a pretty good middle-ground so the devs can make sure we're not going goblin mode and messing everything up lol
