Zones. We should be able to have zoning. Place markers like a box that will only allow certain types of buildings to be placed.
I would have a menu.
Houses Factories HavervestersNo Build Zone
Then you can get more specific like types of houses and size of houses.
Then types of factories
Type of harvesters size of harvesters
And for No build zone you cna give admin to people so they can place bases or guild healls or whatever they like. Also You canuse that area to keep open like some people like to keep the middle of their city open. Or just to hold off area for expanisons and new civic structures coming.
And in the zoines for etra money we can get more things. Example we can have improveed job markets and stronghold and other things for the whole city maybe we can give those rights to the zones. It would give us more options and off course cost us an arm and a leg.
Well these are some more good ideas but I have no idea if it can be coded or not.

Well you can do that now manually - our city allows the mayor and militia to grant zoning rights and we take people to where we want them to place their stuff. We have set up an industrial area... residential. Things are getting better as we get more organized. Of course it helps once you get more room to be able to do this type of designing.

sure, but that requires a militia member to be online at the time, some cities do not even have zoning rights, if u want to live there, great. so for those poor dumb SOB's something like this would be neat.
I think coding would be easy, just place a bunch of flags which affect the surrounding area. seeing as how we have "no build zones" and "no house zones" already in place and in the game.
I do however think this idea is not one of the MORE important ones I've seen, One of which being a city chat channel. Which I hardly see as a big coding issue.
I myself however, do not code. So for me to say what would or not be easy isn't to be taken as gold. Seriously tho, I see other similiar aspects in the game which may be adapted for use.
regardless good idea

That's what we do now but sometimes it gets hard and annoying.
