Building Color/Design Guide

[chrisrock]

our second house, this time a little different

again it turned out exactly as planned, so i guess we did figure out how this works.

here's our material list:

BOARDS
35 plum
25 cypress

BLOCKS
100 cypress

STONE
151 feldspar
99 cinnabar


so, again, according to jorb's guide, the 1st and 2nd wood are defined by the BLOCKS you put, not the boards.
the 3rd and 4th wood are defined by the BOARDS and not the blocks.

so if you want a house with the 1st wood like cypress and the 2nd wood spruce, you'll want to have about 55 of cypress and 35 of spruce.
and the same goes for boards, you have to have at least half as much as the 1st wood for the second.

not sure if i'm making myself clear, but anyways, that's how it works for the stone mansion at least. we tested twice and it worked perfectly.

Amber client lets you make those trees pop up on minimap. Other custom clients probably do too.

Looking for a pretty mansion image as an example for the wiki.

Also crossposting part of this as it has relevant information about how mansions work: viewtopic.php?f=40&t=41039&p=554794#p554794

(on the subject of choosing a primary, secondary and tertiary stone types and a theoretically working ratio for each possible combination)

My example will use Marble, Basalt, and Quartz.

3 colours:
Primary: Marble
Secondary: Basalt
Tertiary: Quartz:
Solution: 142 Marble, 71 Basalt, 37 Quartz

2 colours:
Primary: Marble
Secondary: Quartz
Solution: 166 Marble, 84 Quartz

Neither are tested, only numbers accomodating what loftar said was required, they should work. If you can help confirm it would be greatly appreciated.
