Patch Notes: Doors, rented rooms, painted houses and yards

Doors between rooms

  • New: Doors in the Decorate catalogue. Daggerfall's own interior doors can be hung in any open doorway of your home, house or ship. Choose one and press Place.
  • While you place a door, every free doorway is marked in green and the one you are looking at in gold. The door fits itself into the doorway you look at, sized to the opening. Turn it to swing it the other way.
  • A door hangs only in a doorway it can close. If the free doorways are all too wide for it (an arch), the bar says so.
  • A door you hung stays open, shut or locked as you left it, and you can move it within its doorway on any later visit.
  • The bar tells you how many doorways are free, or that the house has none. The catalogue says the same before you choose a door.
  • A placed door opens and shuts like the room's own doors, blocks the way while shut, and is shared with everyone in the room.
  • A door parts the rooms on either side of it, so a house with an open doorway becomes two rooms for the room tabs (and for renting, below).

Renting out rooms (online)

  • New: Rooms to rent. In a home with more than one room, the Decorate panel has a "Rooms to rent" tab. Choose a room, set its price in gold a day (-100, -10, +10, +100), and offer it. Change the price whenever you like; a tenant keeps what they paid for.
  • Other players see "Rent a room: from N gold a day" at your door. They choose a room and how many days (1, 3, 7, 14 or 30 real days), see the price, and confirm.
  • A tenant can walk into your home whoever else you let in, and may rest there. They can't open your cupboards, drop items or cast spells.
  • The rent waits at your home. Collect it from "Rooms to rent" whenever you like; it goes into your bank account in that region.
  • "Stop offering" takes a room off the market. A tenant who has already paid stays until their days run out, and can't renew it. Once they have gone, "Clear it" takes the room off your list.
  • A home can't be sold while someone rents a room in it. Rent you never collected is paid with the sale.
  • You can rent up to 3 rooms at once, and renew your own room from its door while it is still offered.

Your house's outside (online)

  • New: Exterior. Stand outside your own home and press Decorate. The "Exterior" tab paints the walls, windows, roof and door with Daggerfall's own looks: walls and windows in any of ten building styles (manor, tavern, temple, village and more) and four climates; the roof and door in four climates and six styles.
  • Each choice is shown on your house as you pick it. "Paint it" keeps it for everyone to see; leaving the tab puts back anything you did not paint.
  • Winter still snows on your roof. Painting is free.

Your yard (online)

  • New: decorate outside your home. Stand on your own lot and press Decorate to place catalogue pieces outside, priced as they are inside.
  • Your lot is the ground around your house. Its edge is marked while you place a piece. A piece must stand wholly on it: one that reaches past its edge, into the house or onto a neighbour's ground can't be placed, and the bar says why.
  • Up to 60 pieces a yard. Everyone walking the street sees them.
  • Outside, pieces hold nothing and give no light, and doors are for doorways only.

What's Changed

  • Housing: doors in doorways, rented rooms, painted exteriors, yards by @Lattymoy in #470
