View Full Version : How do people know where 15 Lucie St. is?

Being that I recently moved to 15 Lucie St, in SQ I began to notice how much more difficult it is for people to find where I live.  In the WillowWood, there was only one door they could go to.  But in SQ, there are a bunch of doors. I'm curious why there are no addresses posted on the outside of homes in SQ, which only seems logical.  Also, I would like to suggest that house numbers be added, just like IRL.<div></div>

For houses, if you don't own the place, when you click on the door as if you want to buy it or you own it and want to go in, it tells you the street address. It is assumed that if you own the place you will know your address.Also, the street signs in sq tell you what street you are on.That being said, the real problem is the 2 room apartments- there is no way of distinguishing which apartment door to use to go in without checkingn each one.<div></div>

Or is it more virtual like the Inns at the starter suburbs?</p><p>Is the game limited in the number of rooms it has (other than the starting Inns)?</p>

It's really quite simple.Alt-W in the zone and it will pull up a waypoint dialog, click on the name and follow the trail.I agree though that a little sign above the door, like those for shops, would be great.<p>Message Edited by Scortch on <span class="date_text">03-08-2006</span><span class="time_text">12:39 PM</span></p>

I will verify how this works this evening and then post a message on my guild forum. Thanks very much!</span></div><p>Message Edited by dozier77 on <span class="date_text">03-08-2006</span><span class="time_text">10:59 AM</span></p>

<div></div>If you want more slots for selling from a bigger house, but want to keep the location simple to find, roll a toon, or use an alts house to sell out of. Since they made this change, I allowed my main to sell from my alts room. I have 4 vault slots that my main can access and sell from in the willow wood just like i was in my mains house.
