The architects have always been pushing for More building types. And we would like, especially now, more that are Player City specific to help raise the value of moving to a player city .. (especially residential styles)

Some Ideas that have been brought up are :

Mall/Shopping Center placed by a merchant

These would be City owned..

Generic Open Spaced Structures(planet specific) many people are very creative in custom designing different structures out of the deeds we have available now( museums, Bathhouses, etc) wouldnt it be easy if there was a building with less rooms and more open space?

Casino

Residential styles that are only buildable in Player Cities..

Houses

Apartments

Hotel

We have many other ideas but I dont want to direct the path of your input.. Since what we will eventually get to make will directly effect Your cities I feel your input is very valuable.. Plus if we agree on certain points two professions asking for it makes a stronger plea than just one

So what do you think?

As an Architect AND politician, may I wholeheartedly support your above ideas. Bridges would also be sweet ofc if we can push it hard enough.

I would love them, to bad the devs dont take most of this stuff to heart, ive been wishing for a mall sense my city got going and the apartments would be soooo r0xx0r (parden my l33t lol) lets n00bs have a chance to get there foot into a city

what would be best is if it was like the sims and we could control wall placement and all

and one more thing i would like to add is outside item placement, like NPC that we control, and what they say to people, that would help us control events in the city and push laws better

One thing that you must remember.. Is something that seems simple sometimes takes alot more to implement.. I am new as a correspondent and I will tell you I was amazed at just how much the devs do notice..(still am) we have alot of great correspondents making every effort every day to get things noticed..

I guess what I am saying I know things are slow but it doesnt mean are ideas are just getting thrown against a brick wall..

So with that said keep them coming..

I heard a great idea in this forum that I personally liked alot.. in regards to pavement.. I am sorry I dont remember the person who came up with it to give them proper credit but It basically was instead of pavement tiles having terrain texture inside of cities allready be paved and instead have grass blocks made to be placed.. ( just another idea )

I am also an Architect .. and I'd like to see Apartments. Not sure I'd have much use for a casino.. unless the city got a cut of the action.

The generic PA hall layout does seem ideal for a Mall, though (the "stalls" on the lower level remind me of many a Mud Mall) .. although would a city - owned Mall "match" with the Merchant Tent concept? And who would determine who could place a vendor is such a Mall? .. Possibly for such buildings, there should be a seperate "vendor permission list" so one didn't have to open up the entire admin to grant vendor access.

Any high rise where you can actually access the top levels would be cool. But as for your ideas, hell yes, I fully support all of the above.

I have to say I wouldn't like to split the rather small community that actually visits our cantina into 2 even smaller groups chosing between casino and cantina. I'd rather have a new "big" Casino-Cantina with backrooms etc.

I'd like houses that can be put much closer together on Tatooine (don't really have to fit next to each other like generics or naboo houses, but reducing the spacing on the sides to 1-2 meters should give a much better street fealing).

Player garages should be comming in pulish 7 (or 8 :/)

I'm still hoping Roadtiles was not just an illusion of Plinka and we get that sometime soon

Walls (with arches of course) and bridges would be very cool

But this would of course be a lot of work for the art-department and testing (I remeber in Beta 3 there where still so many "invisible walls" in buildings)

great so long as its not another 100k a week for maintenance, and if there is a casino, at least let the city get some money for their tresury ... its disgusting the cost to maintain a streetlamp .... no city in the galaxy could realisticaly afford this in rl

of course

anything like that we can get our hands on to make our city more like a city and less like a collection of homes.
