Mechanics & gameplay features

It's frustrating that all windows and doors have to be the same color inside & outside. It definitely hampers the color schemes you can use.

This could reuse some existing mechanics used for placing bricks and concrete floors and allow for the creation of custom elevated gardens and similar, but in regular mode (vs sandbox). It could also be included as a task in Jobs. Let's say the player makes a box out of concrete floor and brick walls and they want to fill it with soil for a rooftop garden, they use the 'fill soil' tool (could be listed with lawnmower and snowblower) and select the area they want to fill similarly to concrete floors (basically swap out the model/texture). The area then fills with a soil layer. Like placing bricks, clicking and holding again adds another layer on top allowing deeper soil pockets. Player builds have tried workarounds such as various 'raw' materials that look vaguely soil-like but it's not ideal.

Instead of having every single kitchen cabinet as a different item in the store, only have one for each size and style, and have options such as shelves, drawers/no drawers be a variation. Instead of having to search through a giant list of identical looking cabinets the Player could choose the desired style and size of the cabinet and then choose which exact variation they would like, also a kitchen sink with a singular drawer would be nice to match the cabinets without the sink. This modularity would mean that theres only about 5 different items in the shop of the standing cabinets instead of around 19. This would also work great for the hanging cabinets

Apart from one round window, we don't have anything in the 2 and 4 width. And the Jungfrau glass wall behaves weirdly at certain lengths, so it's not always a good option to plug a space that a narrow or small window could.

*Exclusive to sandbox - Castle in poor condition, fire and abandonment. Install stairs walkways information signs, display cases, exhibition screens etc. - Roman mosaic discovered under floor of building. Remove building ground floor to reveal. Add walkways, glass floor elements. Local museum - Closed-down coal/copper/etc. mine turned museum (new models: abandoned minecart, damaged tracks, tunnel structural supports, weak oil lamp - Partially ruined mansion that suffered from fire and abandonment when the former owner couldn’t afford repairs. Client is a heritage organisation that owns various historic buildings and charges entry fees (like National Trust). In addition to repairs and restoration of building, additional features like a small café and shop for visitors along with ticket office & boiler room. - New flooring mechanic: Place supports then floorboards as opposed to bricks. In addition to existing mechanic not replacing it Models: - Damaged bent and warped floorboards models* - Stone rubble for mine - Old style rough boards barrier for closed mine entrance (similar to the black and yellow tape but old-fashioned) Textures: - Ancient stone surface texture* - Ancient mosaic tiles - Burned wood* - Rough mined stone for closed mine Also, it would be nice to use the furniture restoration feature from HF1 Luxury DLC again.

I can't place a diagnal item next to a straight item (even though it would perfectly fit and be fine) but cups, plates, and bowls are allowed to clip through eachother when it KNOWS I want to stack them evenly?!

It would be great to have an option to purchase/activate a blueprint/layout template when building a house from scratch - I recently created a building brick by brick, and while I enjoyed the experience, I burned through a lot of money and resources because of the number of times I built something only to realise the layout didn't work/the ceiling was too low, etc. It might make doing a full build feel a bit more accessible to newbies.

It seems to appear after the recent update and it is extremely annoying as it makes it so hard to see, where the item is actually moving.

This is a thing that really is missing in career mode, even more now that we have some properties where we can build from scratch.
