Thread: some decorating changes we sorely need...
i would live some pantings and tapstries,and the ability to use my porch!
Besides the obvious "up" command there are a few other things I think we need badly...
***Exterior decorations***
Most large houses and a few of the medium houses have external porches or balconies that are begging for somthing. The large Naboo house has a rooftop patio that would look great with a few tables and chairs and plants. There is also a large cortyard at ground level that could use some decorating. Also PA halls have very vacant front porches and a HUGE rooftop patio where you cannot drop anything.
***higher item counts***
Ok... I understand why they are limited for database reasons, but does it make sense for a house to hold less than a backpack? The current limit is 75 items per lot up to 250. In a large house or PA hall that stinks!
1 large house-6 lots-250 items
6 small houses-6 lots-450 items
1 PA hall-9 lots-250 items
9 small houses-9 lots-675 items
to me this seems to encourage people to use houses less as houses and more as storage containers. Why would someone want a large house when they can store more things in 6 small houses or 2 mediums?
***more furniture and decoration schematics***
an example that springs to mind are plants... "small plant style one". Obviously, it was intended to be more types. The art assets are there already. you can go into guild halls in npc cities and see many different decoration items. People are begging for house decoration, which is why I make a good living building aquariums. We also need paintings, statues and other artworks.
***droid servants***
Ok... this is starwars right? We should have droids in our homes. I know I can buy a 3po droid chassis and stand it in my entry hall, but will it greet guests to my house or take messages? Can I have an MSE or a repair droid scuttling about the house cleaning or whatever to make the house look lived in, even when I'm not there? I know this one's a pipe dream, but who wouldn't like this feature if they were really interested in having a StarWars home?
I second this, It would rule to have more stuff to decorate my home with. As well as an easier way to decorate, this whole Move Left, forward, back. Most of the time it doesnt even work. I have to pick up, walk to the spot, then try again.I would love to see it implementedsimilar to placing a structure, an overview of the surroundings and thenrotate and place.
