Buildings

Four walls (or more) and a door!

The maximum area of a room is 2000 tiles, and rooms larger than that are not recognized as buildings. If you want to cover the entire lot with a roof, you will need to subdivide the building into several smaller sections.

Commands for placing items

When placing walls or items, you can perform special operations by pressing certain keys.

• Change the height of the placement by rotating the mouse wheel; holding down Shift allows placement at higher positions.
• Rotate by middle-clicking or pressing R
  • For items with design variations, you can also choose the appearance
• Shift for free placement (can be placed in any position within the grid)

• Alt for roof mode (can be placed on walls and roofs)
• Ctrl for placement ignoring height (items can be stacked)

Land and building settings changes

Map Board

Allows you to change detailed visuals of the land, such as icons on the World map and sky patterns of the land.

• Change Home Icon: Change the icon displayed on the World map for your home base.
• Change Block Height: Unknown
• Change Sky Block Height: Adjust the length of the blocks under the floor in the sky map. This has no effect on the ground map.
• Change Sky: Change the design of the sky (background) at your home base.
• Adjust Shadow Strength: Adjust the intensity of the shadows cast by clouds on the ground.
• Change Fog: Set the fog and snowstorm effects displayed when outdoors.
• Change Sky Color: Apply a color filter to the entire map. Color settings require setting “A (Transparency)” to 1 or higher.
• Change Sea Color: Change the color of sea water (material). Color settings require setting “A (Transparency)” to 1 or higher.
• Generate Roof : When enabled, you can build rooms with roofs even in indoor lands such as caves and undersea.

House Board (House Plate)

By placing this in a room, you can change the background music and edit the appearance of the building.

• Settings made using the House Board are shared by adjacent rooms in the same group.
• If you select “None” from the Roof Style menu, the room will lose its roof and become exposed to rain and snow.
• If you are creating a room with a fence, you can add a roof by selecting a roof style other than “None”.

Room Board (Room Plate)

By placing it in a room, you can change various settings in the room.

Build mode

The Build Mode allows you to freely edit your Home using a dedicated UI.

To use this mode you need a “build board” sold by Loytel.

As long as you have the ingredients and facilities, you can save yourself the trouble of crafting, but be aware that you will consume Oren instead of Stamina.

Initially, only terrain can be raised or lowered, but as hearthstones grow and the “Construction” home skill level increases, new features are unlocked. When “Free Build” is eventually unlocked, build mode can be started from the “Build” icon in the lower right corner of the screen, next to the journal, and the build board is no longer required.

In Build Mode, you can perform specialized operations in addition to placing and collecting items.

Cinema Mode

You can hide the UI by left-clicking. This is useful when you want to take screenshots or videos.

Edit Cells

• Snowless cells will not accumulate snow in winter, and water tiles will not freeze.
• Float cells will float gently in the air.
• You can toggle the presence or absence of wall pillars using the "Toggle Wall Pillar".
• You can hide the item shadows from “Item Shadow”.

Visibility Switch

The specified item will become invisible outside of build mode.

You will not be able to operate or collect it outside of build mode, and items that are being switched to invisible will not be able to be collected in build mode.

• The functions of items such as signboards and light sources will still function even if they are invisible.
• Doors can also be made invisible.

Picker

You can select the walls, floors and items of the selected cell.
