    Exactly. I actually really like the Adobe houses (including the row the lots) but they simply don't go well with the theme I have planned for this POT. I'd love to see a desert version of Rat's Nest.

    Here's a short list of names:

    Desert's Den
    Adobe Killus
    New Las Vegas

    :) Hopefully Hutch will get his way and convince the other devs using his silent wisdom.

    Were the responses for these questions recorded or posted somewhere we can view them or has this not occurred yet? I did not see an associated date.

    If questions are still being received;

    1. When can we expect to receive the add-on houses we selected in the POT submission form?

    2. Can seating please be added to the items we are allowed to place in the public areas of town (off Lots), Chairs, benches etc.?

    2. Will we be able to mix and match existing features of existing POTs to achieve the look/feel we want? IE: Port Phoenix Docks with Forest Biome.

    Thank you,
    Grave

    If I have a player owned town with overlay access and wish to upgrade it, will I keep overlay map access?

    On your account page, you use the Upgrade button beside your town to increase the size of it. It keeps its overland status if you already have it, which you do, as you are close to my PoT.

    I want to shrink the m2 for my crossroads, as it is a small town in a metro area :(

    I don't mind the large open countryside, but as I posed to Violation to ask during his telethon segment, it would be nice to be able to move the zone in point (or pick which entrance people zone in from). If there was some function that could be placed, like the Ardoris boatmen, to move visitors from the entrance to 'downtown' or points of interests, maybe that could be an NPC selection.

    A coachman perhaps.

    I had hoped so, but couldn't see any official posts confirming it. If there is one can someone shoot me a link? Just curious, which POT? White Hart?

    the zone point would help tremendously. as it stands now though a "lets say a holdfast" in a metro sized area is very taxing to get to.

    Yes, and yes.

    Also, your original purchase date is retained on your PoT, even if you upgrade it.

    @Church - yes, White Hart is my PoT.

    @Ravicus - I was responding to Church and forgot to quote his response.

    From the Player Owned Town section in the FAQ:

    Can we pick where our Town is located in Novia?
    Yes, players can request a location for their town. However, as space on the Overland Map is limited, only the first 230 PoT’s purchased will receive Overland access. If your PoT has access to the Overland Map, it will be listed as an option on the PoT Submission Form available on your SotA Account Page. Exact hex location will be determined by Portalarium, as we have to place and balance them around plot points, dungeons, and adventure areas.

    I am sure @DarkStarr would correct this if my interpretation is incorrect, but as you have already a spot on the map with your PoT, upgrading its size wouldn't remove it from the first 230 PoTs.

    @Violation I'm assuming this happened and I missed the results. Can you point me in the right direction please?

    Yes it happened a while ago. It is available in the main sota YouTube from Portalarium during their telethon.

    Maybe since the original intent of this thread is fulfilled it should be locked with a mod/dev decision. I don't care either way but it getting bumped might confuse people.
