I think it is really troublesome and kinda strange that we can see what is in the other side of a palisade, wall, etc.
There is a huge wall of bricks blocking my view and somehow i know that just a couple blocks away there is a huge farm of pumpkins?? But i thought something about that.
An area inside closed walls, palisades, brickwalls or even stones in the underground, should have a Fog of War protecting the information about the content inside. you could only see an unknown seetlement if you open a gate, break a wall of somehow enter there. Not only it is more realistic but it protects people from spying on your little house while you are sunbathing with your cows.

Too hard to implement (how do you define outer and inner space?); it makes sieges harder; it makes all sorts of abuses possible and etc.

Very difficult to implement.

That's why some people build up a farm only and build actual stuff underground.Sylmarin wrote:I think it is really troublesome and kinda strange that we can see what is in the other side of a palisade, wall, etc.
