Villager Activities

[easto1a]

Most of the time players will want the majority of the towns people to be working: be it collecting materials or building something. However for the sake of the towns happiness to attract new villagers it may be an idea to have activities idle villagers can do.

Be it the carpenter makes boomerangs or a cricket/baseball bat for the villagers to play with

This could give them time off from work and increase the towns happiness rating

Also some villagers may prefer reading or Other activities.

What do u guys think and what other things could villagers do instead of idling all the time

That sounds like a good idea.

that would be fun, having the possibility to make books/scrolls and them making a library for them all to be stored in it would also be cool if they added a librarian.

Board games for them to play would be cool.

I like the idea of the villagers with high spirit attending a church, monastery, evil death temple of some sort in their spare time. They can go sit at a little pew or read from the pulpit… etc.

Happiness Buff on attending services. This buff should increase the more cool stuff you add to the church. New idle option when a villager isn’t busy, they can visit the church and pray. Awesome new sign option! New Unit Type: Order of The Church of Plenty Monks that don th…

Silas Tries Qubicle

Hey, so I thought I’d try my hand at some Qubicle stuff, and what better way to start than some simple color and base mesh changes. So without much hassle, here’s what I whipped up in my 30 minutes of bumbling around on Qubicle (Free Version) [image] The starts of a few monk variations… The bald guy seems to be decent looking, but i’m not sure on the hooded one, ran out of room above him to really point the hood, and it looks a little like a snow jacket… I think i’ll try some more… brown rob…

Maybe playing with the plush rabbits… It doesn’t HAVE to be just for children.

A weaver could craft string which could be combined with a carpenters YoYo shell to create a Yoyo :D… come to think of it might be an easy first mod experiment for me to try out. (not promising anything hehe)

I want my villagers to make a computer to play stonehearth

Music, (lutes, panpipes, or even a type of bagpipe, I would love to make a pub (with brewed ale) and have my Hearthlings having a good old knees up.
