House

A house is a structure built of wood or stone on relatively flat ground. Houses can be planned on maximum slopes of 6 dirts. The maximum length a house can be is 19 tiles.

A house preserves your possessions by reducing decay, and to a degree, protects them from theft. If the doors are equipped with a door lock, no one may enter your house except the friends you give permission to, unless a door is lockpicked. If the owner of a house has not logged in for 1.5 months, the house is marked as 'abandoned', and takes much higher decay damage.
