    i saw the first playthrough you did. I came back waiting to see if the rotating buildings was still an issue and it seems like it is. If all buildings were squares and depending on how you lay them out they connect into different shapes, sure, no rotating. but with rectangular shape buildings, and having to really plan out your space economy, rotating is definitely lacking

    youre only thinking about the 2d grid space, not the actual map topography. You couldnt rotate buildings without really large cliffs supporting the houses or having them slant along the slope of the mountain. You can see how it makes smaller flat areas to support the buildings that are wide and thin, to support living on slopes.

  • @Neruz_85
    @Neruz_85 Місяць тому +1

    While I like the setting and the overall style, I honestly think that a good chance for something special has been lost here. The way the setting works at the moment, it is basically small islands connected to each other. The verticality is only visual, but could easily be replaced with horizontality. At least being able to build vertically and on top of other things in some areas would imho give this title its unique selling point. As I understand it, such an option is a critical development step and therefore may not come anytime soon, but I would still encourage the developers to consider introducing some USPs that are not only visual.

    • @Muenni
      @Muenni Місяць тому +1

      Hmm, yeah, making the verticality challenging and interesting from a mechanical and not just visual point of view would be great! Though how does building on top of other buildings à la Timberborn achieve that? Maybe some things could grow increasingly slower or produce less the higher you go (not like islands which each specializing on something with different bonuses)... where you have to balance e.g. better farming conditions vs. longer transport routes. A similar thing would be more costly or precarious higher structures as opposed to further away, higher up the mountain placed buildings. Is that what you had in mind?

      @@Muenni "Maybe some things could grow increasingly slower or produce less the higher you go (not like islands which each specializing on something with different bonuses)... where you have to balance e.g. better farming conditions vs. longer transport routes."
      That is already in the game as it happens. A lot of farm type buildings (barley fields, beekeepers, tree groves, etc) produce different amounts of goods on different parts of the mountain. Monks also get one of their needs fulfilled by living on the top part of the mountain.
      I'm not yet 100% sure how travel distance along the vertical shafts is calculated, but I know you need more transporters employed to deliver goods over longer distances (which is why at high tech level you unlock yak transports, which transport 3x the amount the human cart transports do, but of course require yaks, which require space and/or food, and so on). But vertical transport requires yak to operate the yakavators between levels, so it's not for free in any case.
      But there most definately are a number of things that change depending on altitude already in game.

    • @Muenni
      @Muenni Місяць тому +1

      That's good to hear! I was aware there were differences between the 'islands', more wondering how gradual they were. As in, is there a difference game-concept-wise between the mountain meadows and Anno's islands. Not sure how to make the mountain building at increasing heights noticeably different to horizontal, connectable building areas found in other games. Or maybe it is already unique enough as it is, I'll have to check it out.

    I wonder if there is anything in the story about not rotating the buildings; something like building with the entrance facing the mountain peak is bad luck, but facing out toward the open is good.
    That would kind of explain why there isn't much in the way of building rotation.

    Since most buildings seem to be squares, not rotating isn't that much of an issue. But adding it into the game would mean doubling the amount of work to create the models. And since buildings morph together it would come down to quadruple work. And you also want buildings to morph together vertically? Greedy much?
