Side and Back Doors

[The_Blode]

i decided to grow plants behind my initial log cabin, and i was a little sad that using it as a big shed would mean walking around to the front every time. So i propose a new mechanic.

-Right click on an unsealed log cabin or other valid structure
-flower menu pops up with some options, "Add Door" being one of them
-Once selected, your cursor can be used to choose which wall to add the door to, with similar previewing as you get for building gates
-more laborious than resource intensive
-structure can be sealed similarly to a cornerpost to prevent anyone from adding an unwanted door and sneaking around
-reduces available space inside the structure where doors are in the way

the possibilities are numerous and exciting

-different kinds of doors? Weak and strong?
-each door with it's own variable materials for extra ugliness?
-possibility for new combinations of wall+structure so long as all the health/soak/whatever values line up?
-cellar doors outside?
-adjacent buildings linking together?

feel free to tell me how it isn't possible and how even if it was it wouldn't work with PvP stuff

Good idea I think. That or add more buildings with multiple entrances like the great hall. I think one of the previously planned features was to scrap pocket dimensions for housing entirely and implement a free form building system like Rust, but I doubt we're getting that any time soon if at all

[Reiber]

absolutely agree. greathalls should have optional backdoors, like valhalla,
you could use them as transitional buildings. between areas.

The aesthetic potential and base planning options make me really like this idea

I think jorbtar has already planned to overhaul building mechanic to be free form instead of preset schematics.
