So, I have finally been griefed using this method of play, so I thought to offer a simple solution that would also make early game a little harder for security. Making Hearth fires require an open tile on all sides, nullifies their use as an effective griefing tool (they can still be annoying, but no more blocking people in a death trap), and limits their use as a security object. The same thing can be said for the trail markers from cross roads, I swear I have 30 of them stacked tightly to make a road block in the cave I frequent. Feel free to burn me for this one ;D

is it just building the hf that needs a space on each side, or when building something near a hf will you still have to leave that space open? if you build a hf then have to leave that space open it means something there to block so you now have a 3X3 blocked area instead of a 1X1. if you just can't build a hf without scape around it but can then build up to it it won't really fix your issue with hf needing space around then if other things are built between them...

also I prefer to have my hf in the corner of my cellar, this wouldn't allow that. if it has to be 1 space from each wall it now takes up the place of 6 cupboards and part of a walkway...

so I'm 60-40 against this idea :? :?:

1. That would be disabled in houses, as you cannot create crossroads in houses.
Also, this would fuck up early hearth vaults (as you wouldnt build a HF next to other HF outside)
