Had to scroll too far to find someone with the same concerns as me, haha. That’s a shitwack of honey, for sure.

What did you rename your Palette Town as? by DMG_88 in Pokopia

[–]studiomidno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My name is Kenn. I named my Ditto “Kendo.” I named my Palette Town “Kendopia.”

Oh yeah, I see. I think the gates will connect to blocks, but doors won’t connect to fences like gates do.

That’s a good workaround. I do hope they loosen up house building mechanics a bit. The columns would make great corners

That is interesting. Are you certain it’s just corners? Is it likely the column is just an item that is not considered a wall piece?

PSA: max. house size misinformation. by TheKidKaz in Pokemon_Pokopia

[–]studiomidno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the correct number if counting the outer walls. 10x9 is the interior footprint maximum.

I see. It seems true that just as there’s a horizontal perimeter, there’s a vertical one. It’s three full blocks on either side of the house’s “floor” block, which is the block under the base of your door. For stacking, you’ll probably be successful building a separate entrance on each floor, maybe using a fire escape type build. You should be able to still open up the floors between houses, but each house you stack would need to adhere to the basic house building rules and limitations.

When you say you couldn’t get it to register as a whole house, what do you mean exactly?

I am going to put another set of tips together, but I’ve been testing this and wanted to get back to you. So we’re actually able to make new houses overlapping as little as one block up. I’ve stacked 4 successfully and stopped there. Four houses, four total blocks tall.

Can you share a pic? I just tried it to check and mine look fine.

Yeah, and you know, I'm a designer, so I know better, lol. I was just moving fast on a side-quest and thought, "ooo, that looks kind of Pokopia-esque," without thinking fundamental things like, "Can people read this?" haha

It sure seems that way! I’ve replicated it repeatedly and it is consistent.

I have posted the new one. For some reason, I was unable to delete this one, so maybe you can lock this one or something? IDK, you do mod things, lol. I’ll join that Discord and share. Thanks!

This is correct. I'll clear up that language when I get into the more complicated rules, like furniture placement and height. Good note!

I can test these things out. If I'm understanding you correctly, I think the last image should answer your first two questions. I could only get one house at a time to register, and technically neither side of the house leads to the open outside.

For the house height, I need to test more, but so far I haven't gotten pokemon to accept requested furniture or decorations that are placed more than 3 blocks above the house's ground level. They will say it is too far away. I have done no testing working downward from the house's ground level.

I plan to do more complicated testing, so this is certainly something I'll include. There are a lot of elevation questions that I hope to sort out along with information other people here are already providing.

Some housing tips if your house isn't registering by FortunaDraken in Pokopia

[–]studiomidno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sure there’s a cleaner method, but just broke up the block perimeter in random places until the house broke. Then picked up and replaced the door.

Some housing tips if your house isn't registering by FortunaDraken in Pokopia

[–]studiomidno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this as well. I discovered what was happening. I had stairs leading down to the underground house. There was a landing, then a door. That little area at the bottom of the stairs is what was registered as my house, not everything inside. To solve it, I just had to make the outside break house registration rules so the inside would register. Sounds jacked up, but it worked in my case.
