Fix Housing Megathread

[SXTC]

Ok I was made aware of this post as the “general” place to share housing suggestions & ideas.
So these are my suggestions (if they weren’t made already):


Communal housing:
The same housing ward keeps being used but the sharing option on them would get “enhanced” like this:

=> Small house = Can be shared with 3 people if used privately or shared with 1 additional FC.
- Add “lofts” which are bigger then apartments with higher ceilings & can be shared with 3 people or used by 1 FC.

=> Medium house = Can be shared with 6 people if used privately “or” shared with 1 additional FC (2 in total).
- Add “duplex” apartments which have 2 medium/large floors that can be shared with 6 people or or shared by 2 FC's.

=> Large house = Can be shared with 9 people if used privately use “or” shared with 2 additional FC’s (3 in total).
- Add “triplex” apartments which have 3 medium-large floors that can be shared with 9 people or shared by 3 FC's.

=> Replace the FC rooms to loft sizes and allow members to move their lofts to the FC (in the event if they already had one in the apartment complex. If a member is kicked they would not lose their loft, it would just be moved back to the apartment complex by default without loss of layout settings (no need to redo interior).

=> the search function would get an additional option to search for FC’s if you don’t know where they are located since crystals only show who’s using one of the houses.

=> When sharing a house with an FC, additional restriction options should be made available.

This idea would make the exterior in the ward seem more active/populated as more people would start using the same ward instead of being spread out over so many different wards (so while this may put more stress on 1 ward, much less wards would be needed which in turn would come down to a similar type of server stress).

I think adding more apartments and even adding a workshop to some of the bigger apartments may solve the issue because we all know housing is being abused by people who only want the workshop.
I lead 2 REAL Fc's.. one with 202 members and 1 with 112 members, currently only have 1 FC house. But there is a vast amount of FC's out there that only have 1 player online most of the time(and are usually just 4-10 ppl big) and I think we all know why...
I think they should also implement a system that does not allow FC's to own houses unless they have a specific amount of different members (or logins) every month or even a rule that auto locks the workshop if you don't have enough active members.
But I suppose the last can be solved by allowing FC's to assign apartments as an FC location for everyone to teleport to.
