Please let us change lawn textures.

[DamianFatale]

If I want to change the texture of the lawn from grass to snow, I should be able to do so. Would also be cool to see rock gardens, and other textures.

Wouldn't effect anything in the game already, because the snow furniture we have is more pileish and could be used to add such texture.

Something like a flooring item like we have inside the houses for changing the look of the grass, that would be fantastic, I agree. You could have snow, grass, grass with flowers, rocks, a mixture, even sand. I add my please and thank you to this request!

Add a lava flooring so I can /splash at people passing by!

No.

This would ruin the aesthetic of the wards.

There would be no logic behind one lawn having snow, the other pristine grass, etc.

Some people just want to make the world burn.

We don't have an HOA get outta here with that line of thought. If we did we wouldn't have giant Paissa homes staring my house down from every direction.
I quite like the idea, even if it's just to swap to the texture used in Ishgards housing area. It would be nice though, as an external fixture, to have multiple options. Some people may want a more dead-grass, or maybe a mossy look.
Perhaps one as a bunch of fallen leaves. There's lots of ideas behind this if it were to be an option, even though the work required is a bit more than just a new item request.

I have a kugane tower in my Empyreum ward. It is right across from my house, and it is an enemy. I despise it, but there is nothing I can do, because I cannot make someone else do what I want them to. It ruins my world, but we left the theme requirements in this game long ago. The devs seem to be in favor of the opposite. Let it go.

Then explain why there's snow at The Goblet.



Checkmate, potato.

If I had a house...my lawn would be grass that hasn't been cut in a year, a broken down car, some tires, maybe a rusted swing seat, a washer in one area but for whatever reason the dryer that's missing a door will be completely on the other side of the lawn.

i wanted to fill my lawn with lakeland grass but not enough space

While I agree the logic misses the mark, the lawns in the wards do not function the same way the houses do, and they most certainly are not coded the way flooring, walls, and ceiling options are for the internal structure of a house. The best the dev team could do to accomplish this request is to release outdoor furnishings that would lay over the current designs in the wards. I would imagine there is a maximum size for this, and that size would likely be the same as a large garden or chocobo stable which occupy the same amount of space. This means the player would have to use up several slots to cover all the grass. This might then lead to some clipping issues with other furnishings.

IOW, adding different lawn types is a missed opportunity that should have happened when the housing system was designed and implemented. It would be a skin option much like the fencing and placard. To do it now would require redoing all the wards currently in existence, and with most wards filled across the game's DCs I just don't see this as something the devs would even consider.

It is a really nice thought though. I would really like it if we could do this.
