1.) Lets say I want to place a Med center or cantina in the middle of nowhere. What would be the minimum requirements to do so. In other words I'd like to drop a Guild Hall down, sign up a few friends, drop my hospital or cantina (or both) then disband town and remove everything but the cantina and / or hospital. How many folks would I need and minimum amount of time, etc t do such a thing.
2.) Can I place outside structures such as fountains and statues near my home ? Or is this something only allowed in a city ?
3.) Any professional decorators on eclipse ? I can supply some of the items like a gong and blue rug and a few rare items. However I'd need a decorator who can supply the rest of the furniture (i'd pay of course) and arrange it neatly. A bonus would be to make an aquarium, I saw a few in some homes (very neat).
4.) How many lots does a large house count for ? I know its 2 for small and 2 for medium.
Im in the process of placing a home now, however Im having difficulties finding multiple floor plans to choose from. Im thinking I want to go with a Tatooine Medium house if large counts for 6 (for Lok). One tat home I liked had a entrance which turned left and down a long hallway then turned right into an open room. The next room was sunk down a bit. No idea what floor plan that was but it looked neat.
There's no rush on this really. Im still looking for the house, although I have the spot staked out. Any vendors with mulitple houses would be appreciated. Im on now looking.

The FAQ lists all of the house lots.
With regards to the med center / cantina, ask over in the Politician forum. We build them but since those are "city perks" where you have to have a city of the right size (and/or a mayor with the right skills) to place med centers and cantinas I'm sure the politicians have dealt with "what happens if we dissolve the city?

What those two said...but it seems I recall reading or being told, that med center, cantina, and theatre are some of the buildings which after being placed, stay put even if the city goes away, since they're privately owned and not actually city buildings like a bank or city hall are.
I'm positive you have to have some sort of city rank for the fountains, lights and gardens tho, and they are city items, not private items. Its because they don't use lots, that they go away if the city does.

Any of the private city buildings (Cantina, Theatre or Med Centre) must be placed in a Player City of the appropriate size by a Mayor of the appropriate rank, but remain after the Player City is destroyed.
Outdoor fountains, statues and streetlamps (and the like) are Player City decorations, and are removed if the Player City is destroyed.

I've been wondering if this was possible too.
I don't remember where it was, but I once drove past a cantina that was just sitting in the middle of nowhere.
Even if the city had disbanded, there weren't ANY other structures nearby. It would have required everyone but the cantina owner to have picked up and moved.

You'd need 10 people for about 3 weeks (probably more because I think placing those structures requires a higher city level limit (or maybe it's just the mayor that needs the higher level... I forget, it's been months since I placed all our civic structures in our town)....
But yes, player owned civic structures (hospital, cantina, theater) will stay up after the city is disbanded... pretty sure shuttles, garages, cloning centers and gardens / decorations will disappear once the city goes away though.
