A house is a residential building in Foundation. Homes cannot be directly placed. Rather, the foundations are procedurally placed within a residential zone that has adequate space as the need arises.

Description

Homes are required by villagers once they have reached the rank of serf. Initially, homes built have a capacity of 2 occupants, however, if housing densification is allowed, they can be upgraded.

As villagers are promoted beyond serfs, their housing needs will change, requiring higher quality homes than the ones they already live in. If home upgrades are disallowed, they will not be able to improve their homes, which can help with resource management if other buildings are already in construction.

Construction Requirements

  • Low Quality houses have no requirements.
  • Medium quality houses require a desirable neighbourhood, beautification area, and at least one commoner resident.
  • High quality housing requires a paved road and at least one citizen resident.

House Shape, Quality, and Density

As villager homes improve, their structure and materials change. At low quality, homes are made of wattle and daub with thatched roofs and woven wattle fencing. Medium quality homes are half-timbered with roof shingles and stone fencing. Once at high quality, homes are of masonry and half-timbered construction with roof shingles and elegant stone fencing.

The overall layout of the house is determined when it is first built. This shape will remain consistent throughout its upgrades, following the boundary indicated by its fence. While low and medium density houses have similar footprints, the high density version of the same house will fill out the fence boundary almost entirely.

High density houses change shape around decor.
Animated gif: High density houses change shape if other items are placed in their boundary.

Houses are procedurally generated.Villagers will select an overall shape depending on the available Residential space. Low and medium density houses will be destroyed if decorations or buildings are placed within their fence boundary, but high density houses will adjust their shape around these items.
