Hello tehre,


I'm trying to find out the floorplans of all the different player event perks, as I am having problems placing them where i want in our city. I would like to be able to palce in front of our shuttle port but our decorations and housing is laid out according to a predesigned map and there doesnt seem to be much space... This doesnt leave us with many prominent places to put things.


It would be possible to create some more space, but this would require large amount of work redeeding civic structures, gardens, our Information Tent and trainers etc.


I was wondering, does anyone know the sizes required for each perk? It would be nice to check if it was possible to place things in any space we create before we actually do it


I believe the Lottery Droid is 5 x 4 metres, and i assuem the other NPC alike are the same. Does anyone have any definate answer on this?


Thanks!

This is only a guess, but I think you need about 100 meters around structures. Might be less. All I know is that you can't place them very close...

I seem to remember them saying it's supposed to be the size of a camp, but not sure which one. Maybe it's in the original post on perks.

The placement of the event deeds is crazy. The TIE fighter can be placed just about anywhere while the ship with the wings folded up take a much larger space. That ATST is absolutely horrid to put down and has to be in a huge flat open area. It is just crazy. Makes no sense.

i just wish they placed a bit better using the housing system for placement (the lottery droids etc at least...not sure if teh Decorations work like this or not)


Its hard to know how much space they need, and its very difficult getting them away from objects.


I would liek to see things like Player City gardens be able to have Actors and Droids placed on them. as well as be able to place NPCs and Drodis anywhere a player city trainer can go....

I agree. When they first came out I tried to place a flag in front of city hall... no space.
I tried to place a bothan near a trainer in a garden to make out as though they were having a conversation... again, no space so it was in the middle of the highstreet talking to itself.

I don't think they intended this behaviour - at least I hope not!
