Inside your stable
A built stable is a solid building. Lay a second run of bricks and it becomes a room you can walk into.
Building the room
The shell is bricks again, and how many depends on the plot:
| Plot | Room shell |
|---|---|
| 6x6 | 60 bricks |
| 8x8 | 100 bricks |
| 10x10 | 150 bricks |
| 12x12 | 220 bricks |
You lay them from the yard, not from inside. Stand at your stable, press E to open the stash panel, take the stable tab, and the Upgrades section has a room row with a bar on it. Press Lay bricks and it takes every brick you are carrying, up to what the shell still owes. Come back with more whenever you have them.
Until the shell is finished there is nothing to enter, and the door says so. Once it is finished, a Go inside button appears in the same panel's stable section.
The room
One room, four sizes, matching the plot underneath it.
| Plot | Room, in tiles | Furniture it holds |
|---|---|---|
| 6x6 | 11 x 9 | 8 pieces |
| 8x8 | 14 x 11 | 12 |
| 10x10 | 17 x 13 | 16 |
| 12x12 | 20 x 15 | 22 |
Walls are counted in those tiles, so the floor you can actually stand on is a little smaller. What goes on the floor is furniture, which you craft at the workshop and place by hand.
Visitors
Your room holds up to eight souls at once, and it is not a public space. Guests can only walk in while you are home. Leave and the door closes behind you: anyone else inside stays until they leave, but nobody new comes in.
It is the first private room in the world. Nothing hunts you there, nothing gathers there, and no bench stands in it. It is somewhere to be, not somewhere to work.
Taking it down
The room comes down with the building. Dismantle a stable and the shell's bricks are not returned, but every piece of furniture comes back whole to storage. Rebuilding starts the room from zero.
Your interior menu
While inside, the home button beside the map becomes Stable interior and opens your furniture, paint stock, wall and floor finish, furniture count and visitors. Owners can remove guests. Choose an item to place it in the world with a preview; R rotates and the matching touch control does the same.
Sit on a chair with E / Use. Build merging glass aquariums, show fish trophies, or use fish paint to colour the existing wall and floor materials. Aquariums and their care are in this home menu, not in the fishing shop.
