the Bad side of town - cainacol12 - 11-30-2016 hi again, I made the suggestion for 1.7 to have some bad areas in town and I just wanted to expand on that. Quote: I was thinking maybe some more negative building that work like churches and the library but in reverse. Could be its own theme set. Some suggestions would be
the Bad side of town - WatersMoon110 - 11-30-2016 At some point, a few things on this were planned. Not sure if they still are. A cockfighting pit would have to either take trade chickens, the domesticated animal resource, or chicken meat. I don't think a pasture animal can be a building requirement. It should, however, produce feathers and occasionally chicken meat. Heh. I like the idea of a Black Market as a specialized trader. It would only get the Smugglers. *grin* I forget which items they will take (because I used Traders Take Anything), also I don't usually buy from them. the Bad side of town - estherhb - 11-30-2016 Specifically creating a brothel, cockfighting ring, drug den, etc. in a family game creates controversies that would need to be considered. There are lots of ways to create an unsavory part of town currently. With some imagination, some of these items can be created. A pretty good prison can be created using the barracks (or the row houses from Brondo's Japanese Houses mod) and palisades from the Fort Set, adding stocks, hanging platforms, benches for the audience, towers, etc. The houses and other buildings from the Dock Set can be used to create a slum. A cockfighting ring can be created using decorative roosters and various fencing with benches for the audience. The old Town Hall would make a pretty good brothel IMO (I've used it to create a haunted house, so why not?) the Bad side of town - WatersMoon110 - 11-30-2016 Right. If this sort of thing were done, it would probably need to be a separate mod (like Legalized Marijuana was). There are certainly people who would like to opt out of that sort of thing entirely. On the other hand, I enjoy that sort of theming. Though I probably couldn't bring myself to actually build many fictional cockfighting rings. It would still be an interesting addition, though perhaps not an extremely useful one. *grin* the Bad side of town - rejectedegg - 11-30-2016 Personally I would use these parts of it Quote: but not the other parts. I agree this would definitely have to be made a Theme Based Mod, so there are options available to those who may find things included in it as Disgusting. the Bad side of town - ShockPuppet - 12-01-2016 Regarding brothel and similar. We appreciate the historical accuracy, and even if we wanted it we can't get it added to <abbr title="Colonial Charter">cc</abbr> or <abbr title="MegaMod">mm</abbr>. Reason is to avoid the mods breaking steam workshop agreements. Any additions of this kind would have to remain separate. I'd like more of a shanty town look, and a wealthier town look.

The negative/happiness ring has very little impact, according to some research I have seen. I would like to see some entertainment type structures even if only decorative. |
