Can't decide on a spot for The Roost Café

[Durk]

I don't know if it's usual to post something like this on the forums, but let me do it anyway.

I?ve had the caf? unlocked for quite a while now and I still haven?t decided for a spot to place it. I already kind of know where I would like it to be, but I?m still doubting because of 1(!) grid row.




These are the options I was thinking about. The first one will have a little plaza of 4 by 5 patterns in front of it, that will align with the ones before re-tail and the town hall, the other one is directly next to the path. The gap that the second place creates in the path is kind of bothering me, but the first one feels so far away from the path. Anyway, both have their pro?s and con?s. I?m still unsure, but please tell me what you think looks best.

I?ll leave two versions of my town map in the spoiler, so you can see how it will blend in with the rest of the town.

Personally, I prefer the Caf? being right next to the path. The little gap in the path doesn't really bother me, and it's such a tiny thing that can be altered with change of path placement later. However, having the Caf? a square back from the path is an irreversible change, if you get what I'm saying.

I think the first one is better. The little divet in the path ends up bugging me when it happens in my town. For my cafe I made a little plaza with a topiary in front of it. Its by the cliff so it's looking out to sea. Only way I could think to do it without getting bugged out by the path!

I like the first one better. I don't care for the bite out of the path.

I like the second one, idk why the first one just bothers me. But you don't have to put the little square in the second one, just leave it as it is?

The empty tile comes standard with every building, it's so things can't be put in front of the door. It's annoying that we can't even put paths there, but I guess they had their reasons.

I personally prefer buildings 1 space away from the paths. The disappearing chunk always bothered me for some reason X3

The first one for sure. I've always found the empty space in front of a door to be super awkward.

I like the second one more. The chunk out of the path doesn't bother me that much because the path you're using isn't bordered, so it looks a little more natural. I've always liked having paths closer to buildings, and in this case the path looks like a wooden decking out the front. I really like that idea.

yes i like the 1st one. when it takes away a bit of a path it really annoys me

I prefer the first one! Like others, I don't like the chunk out of the path. Also, I feel that the cafe isn't too far away or awkward looking one space away. You can have room to plant a few flowers in front of the cafe.
