Okay, I have my 10 lots but I need help figuring out how to use them most effectively.6 lots are already set in stone with:


  • 1 Small House

  • 1 Medium House

  • 1 Factory

  • 1 Engery Harvester

Question is how should I allocate the remaining 4? Right now, mostly because I'm in the grinding years, I'm going with 1 Steel, 1 Copper, 1 Gas (there's a good gas resource on Chil/Tat atm) and 1 Chemical. But that's mostly because Tatooine on Chilastra is very resource poor atm in terms of resource quality.

I would find a way to ditch the small house, so that you can free up the lots to drop a second Equipment Factory and be able to drop another Harvester. I would go



  • 2 Steel

  • 1 Fiberplast

  • 1 Copper

  • 1 Gas

When the Gas shifts, rotate thatlot between Ore, Chemical, Aluminum, and more steel.

If you're grinding, and just grinding, I'd go with 2 steel and 1 chem doing fiberplast, vary the other depending on what's spawning.

Only problem is I dislike the thought of sharing my house with my place of business. Hence the small house for vendor machines and the medium house for me/workshop.

If you're on Naboo the type 2 round houses only take up one lot. Or you can get enough merchant to place a tent (also one lot). The third choice would be to find someone with a house that will allow you to place your vendor there. This is the usual arrangement in some cities anyway.

This is what I'm doing currently with my new DE toon. I keep an eye out for any rare named resources or high quality stuff and place the other harvs on them.

Don't you mean drop the medium as it takes up one more lot and still provides the same # of storage spaces. Or did they fix that problem and i just missed it?

Dunno about other houses but medium Tatooine houses take up 2 lots, same as a small. Chose it because it's multi-story and can hide my equipment without ruining the decor (who entertains over crates of resources?)
