I was roaming around the southeast swamps of naboo. I came to the sad conclusion there is now way i could put down a city hall do to the foot size is bigger than the biggest island in the swamps i could find.
There is also a second problem. There is not enough large size islands close to each other.
So my dreams of a swamp town went sinking to the bottom of the peitmoss on the bottom of the swamps.
My proposal which could be applied to a lot more than swampy land, is a land reclamation fee. A fee that is charged for anytime a building can't be placed on the ground do to lack of enough flat land to place a structure on. I would go with flat fee for every square of land needed for the foot to be placed down on that there is no acceptable ground. Also, there has to be at least 50% usable ground to start with. That way we don't suddenly get cities in the middle of the ocean.with land reclamation. The other possiblity is to loosen up the usable land requirements placed on players that are not at all required on npc cities.
For cities that want to be in the ocean. We would need a different type of solution. that would require floating platforms. I think it would be awsome to see oceananic cities.
These would definalty bring more variety on the cities and places where could be and show up.

i once built a small house sotuh of moenia, it was nice an secluded, nobody ever came barging in without permission. a swamptown would be great, and i think there should be more options to laying ones house down. we should be able to build houses on stilts.
