Housing demolition timer need to be changed! Sitting on your property needs to count.

Yea you would like that, give you a better chance to own more wards

Granted I will be adding another active service account due to the release of the expansion, I have no intentions of owning more than what I have right now. I give you a 3 out of 10 for the effort.

Its ok you get a 1/10 from me for using a fc house alt account. Post on your main coward.

I do wonder if they dont use hosuing instances because of some engine limitation. Im not sure what engine they even use.

Nice comeback. What's a main service account anyway? As far as I'm concerned, I'm using all of them equally.

I wouldn't recommend engaging. Hypocritical from me, I know, but still.

Yeah, about that...

What's a main service account anyway? A miserable little pile of secrets.

Sorry, couldn't help myself. Anyway, back to playing more 'vania.

I googled it and they use their own engine crystal tools, which gave them a lot of problems with 13 apparently. I have no idea if that would even effect housing Im basically wondering about these things and cant find any real information about why they cant so Im looking through reasons I can think of. Queue is taking forever so I have time right now.

And yes, this is the main issue on housing. It's the games framework.

So the OP owned a house but didn’t step into it once in 45 days despite logging in every day, and is now mad that he lost the house?

You could have done things like retainers/orchestrions/armoire at your personal house instead of your FC house, OP. That is also an option. Despite my dissatisfactions with the housing system, I’m hard pressed to really feel sympathy for you.

Not sure if anyone clarified this (I haven’t finished reading through the entire thread), but Crystal Tools was used only for 1.0 (which is another reason why it had so many problems). Crystal Tools apparently worked really well for XIII despite it being a bit dated for it, but it did not translate well into an MMO environment since it was made for single-player console games.

FFXIV now uses the Luminous Engine for its coding. That said, there are remnants of 1.0 coding still around (according to the developers) that may make Housing harder to code if there’s a lot of spaghetti floating around in its coding, but they no longer use Crystal Tools as the main engine.

I’m going off of the tone of your posts. They sound quite angry, but you could have—at any point during these 45 days—stepped into your house to take care of things. Instead, you opted to check retainers and do stuff at your FC house and just lounge about in your yard. I can’t really feel sorry for that.

No need to feel sorry for me nor do I expect it.

What was stated is the need to have the outside count if we need to have a timer at all.

The other option if we need to have timer is, an in game pop up notice.

The last option is to change or add instances we zone in so we all can have a plot with no timers need.
