Housing Ideas and Feature Requests

[Whitefire]

Please add Omicron or otherwise Omega-related housing items. All we have atm is the level-checker replica, and even that is more of a reference to some older FF game and not so much Omega themself.

Omega doesn't even have an ingame statue like Alexander does.

Things like the Mark XIV Thermocoil Boilmaster, those funny little pyramids, the Soup itself (maybe following the fashion of the Faerie Round Table but with the pinkish-purple condensed aether instead). DNA model based on the background of o12s phase 2.

Rugs and Flooring with the Deltascape/Base Omicron floor patterns, matching Wallpaper, pillars, etc.

For outside, I truly need this thing specifically. It's huge and it needs to be in my yard.

Similarly, the storage crates found around the base. Alternative skins for the mini-aetheryte in various styles. A full-on house exterior also has some cute potential, and would fit in nicely with a theoretical Moon/Solution Nine housing ward.

The Level-Checker Striking Dummy! Please, it already exists, let us smack it at home too (maybe make it cost Chi Bolts, and be listable on the marketboard?).

The Tree of Life, and the golden grass from the final Elysion area would also make nice additions.

Relatedly, but more general, is that the base/grass of a plot could be interchangable much in the way that fences are, but not being limited to strict 'sets'.

Meaning, let us change the type of 'flooring' outside regardless of what type of walls we have. Grass, sand, snow, sparse or dense flowers, different grass, dirt, brick, slabs, metal, ... Deltascape/Base Omicron floor patterns (but outside this time).

It would be nice. Some things may not 'make sense' (ex. grass or flower items on a metal floor) but that would be up to the individual to mix and match things how they like.

+1 to this… the entire yard fits within a square or rectangle border, no reason we couldn’t have outdoor “flooring” options. They did it on the Island, but theoretically it should be easier to do it for outside housing the same way it works inside.

Please, increase the amount of housing setting customization for both interior and exteriors:
- Add ceiling, stairs and supporting beams options for interiors.
- Allow more dyes for interior settings too and make the interior walls able to be shown without the wooden beams, which seem out of place for some wall sets.
- Give outdoors flooring options and add more outdoor sets, for a change. Make more parts of the setting dyeable (namely, the walls)

Tbh I'd be excited for ANY new districts. They have a lot of options. They could go for a Sharlayan Residential District, a Radz-at-Han one, or even Eulmore? I also hope that they will add many more phasmascapes for both the wall kind and ceiling kind. A few examples of Phasmascapes that I wish we had are A Ceiling and Wall Phasmascape that have snowfall or a snowstorm. Also when it comes to ceiling phasmascapes, i wish there was a sunset one that would match the Royal Menagerie Phasmascape. Wall Phasmascapes will hopefully gain the option to be dyed. Also it is interesting to imagine that if they are already putting in all the work to add a second dye slot to THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS of glamour and gear items, then would having furniture get a 2nd dye slot be out of the question? I think it's likely. I can't wait to find out how many more slots each house size will get. My excitement is overwhelming <3

One more thing is that I have only been playing for like 2 years, but someone told me that long ago, you used to have door access to balcony in larges. Please bring back the balcony door function. In addition, i wish that the ingame housing system had functions to easily float and sink items by changing height values. Over time, it would be awesome if SE could add some of the best features used by some QOL third party tools, so that tool users won't need the tools anymore because they'd be just ingame functions.

Leaning into player creativity when it comes to floating, sinking, and even void builds themselves, would be something the community would freak out over in a good way. Heck, you could even add a furnishing that is specifically for void builds that functions like an Orchestrion Phonograph, where instead of picking songs from orchestrion rolls you've collected from various sources, it would be you collecting void skyboxes that would probably be rare boss drops or something lol.

If this were a thing, it's easy to see what else would be good to change. Such as an option to remove the ceiling from the top floor, or to change the top floor to being "Rooftop" instead of "Attic". Then if we chose the rooftop option, it would be technically void build. Or whatever new name it would have. I think an easy title for void vs non void builds would be that non voids would be called Closed Builds, and the void ones would be called Open Builds. It's a lot to think about and a lot of work to implement, but over time, I'm sure SE will continue to feed us housing addicts all the things we've been wanting <3

I'd like to see more an instanced bedroom attached to housing so we can access our glamour chest.

I like this idea. If the technology doesn't exist to make a glamour dresser item then at least let us teleport to an inn room and back from our house. That seems like it could be really easy coding-wise.

I would like a way to save and load housing/apartment layouts. ٩(ˊᗜˋ )و
Maybe it could be saved locally like how character designs are? (´･ω･`)?

New housing skins -
Giant Tree stump house or a Hanging Sylph House

Good idea tbh, love it +1 from me, would probably need a special housing area for it but would be amazing

[Impia]

I'm sure it's been requested but I would really like to see the staircase and railings in houses be swappable or outright removable. It would be nice if it were easier to integrate default layout with my own designs, particularly if I want to do something like fix an attachment to the upper walkway in the mansion layout.
