In other games you can right click people in your friend list to visit their house, here you have to go through the hoops of finding their housing area, finding their ward, finding their plot and slowly walking there.

I feel like people would hang out more around houses if they were more accessible. And of course, there should be a setting to prevent people from porting to your house if you wish so.

tl;dr allows us to teleport to the house of people in our friend list.
