Building System and Building Quests
Contents
Building System
Each structure has an item, usually a sign or a postbox, that can be Interacted with to show the building's requirements and the area in which those items must be placed (or already exist). When you receive a quest to create a new building, you'll receive this item from the quest-giver.
When you have the sign (or postbox), pick a spot that seems convenient and has plenty of room, and place it. (Can building areas overlap? Can you place new shops and houses anywhere on the island?) If you want to know what area it covers, check the box at the bottom of its display. Don't worry if you decide you want to move or turn it -- just hammer it, and it will drop itself to be picked back up and placed once more.
Once the area highlighted is what you want (there doesn't seem to be a way to change its size or relationship to the sign), you can start placing the required items. It's fine to add more things, but the listed things must be supplied. A roof does not have to cover every block in the designated area. (How much does it have to cover? How high does it have to be to be considered a roof?)
When the requirements are met, a message will appear.
