Overview

Large Rowhouse is a residential building in Timberborn designed to house a relatively large number of beavers compared with basic housing. It appears as an advanced housing option along the rowhouse family of buildings and is intended to improve population density in constructed settlements while fitting into street-grid layouts.

The building functions as multi-occupancy housing: its interior contains multiple beds and it counts as several dwellings for workforce calculations. It connects to water and power networks like other houses and consumes the same basic maintenance mechanics (occupation, repairs/replacement when destroyed, and pathing requirements to workplaces and services). In play, it is used to concentrate population near work hubs and services without sprawling many small houses across the map.

Practical notes and strategies:

  • Place Large Rowhouses along streets and near work clusters to reduce travel time and improve efficiency; they align well with compact settlement designs.
  • Ensure nearby water access and food supply so residents remain productive; houses do not themselves provide services beyond shelter.
  • Power and maintenance: treat the building like other residences for power distribution and building queues—make sure power reaches the block and that timber/material supply lines allow construction and repairs.
  • Consider mixing different housing sizes to manage population growth: Large Rowhouses are efficient for rapid expansion but may force resource strain if service coverage (water, clinics, food distribution) is not scaled accordingly.
  • In dense layouts, watch pathing and entrance access so beavers can reach jobs and services without congestion; road placement and building orientation affect throughput.
