  That way there's no need to put mirrored buildings as a seperate.

  Additional to doorway variation. This could also work with vertical shaft. By having the same shaft menu but allow toggle horizontal/vertical as variation. https://timberborn.featureupvote.com/suggestions/215369/

  Smaller buildings better have only one doorway, but with the freedom to choose which tile the doorway is connected to. Larger buildings and/or buildings with no visible separation (e.g. shrine) can have multiple doorways, as well as taller buildings (e.g. triple lodge - doorways on different height levels).

  In addition, it's pretty strange that the lodge and mirrored lodge have a different line in the sumup of how many housing is available. I'd really think they could just be merged.

  Quite keen on this feature request; restraints aren't inherently bad but not being able to mirror the building at least feels like quite an artificial one. And it is always a bit frustrating when a mirrored version would fit perfectly but the one offered makes everything look a mess.

  Additionally. District Gate should have 2 versions. straigth and corner

  If there would be corner stair then it might also use this same toggle key

  having versions and mirrored versions separate just causes more hassle than its worth really

  I was going to open a suggestion for left/right stair variations until I found this. Would love to see mirrored and other variations on many of the buildings.

  I want mirrored versions of every building, but want it to just be a hotkey. Like hit F when building a building to flip it to it's mirrored version.

  flipping with F would be fantastic, and not just on lodges. The one I found myself wanting it the most was actually the large water tank, though farmhouses were also high on my list.
  
  Also agree that making lodge and mirrored lodge one choice, with the addition of a "flip building" hotkey, would be ideal.

  It would be handy to make buildings and doorways separate objects, so that buildings can be used in new configurations (e.g. ground floor entrance to double lodge; large warehouse with second-floor entrance) and certain objects (e.g. mirror lodge) could be removed entirely.

  i agree, i just finished building this big housing complex and had a lot of trouble getting the medium lodge to fit how i wanted it.

  Would work if you could have one doorway that is shared by connected buildings the same way the power works.

• 03 Oct, '21

  Another issue are the double/triple lodges having only the option to have the doorway on the second floor. In addition to choosing the horizontal position of the entrance, we could be able to choose its vertical position as well

  The large water tank's geometry has a significant impact on placement. It would be great to have a mirrored version to fit in "left handed" spaces.

  As title says, add a key-bind to flip the house (mirrored) instead of adding an additional mirrored house on the selection.

  Rather than having a mirrored house option, which is a bit meh, how about when you press rotate it swaps to mirrored version on press 1 then rotates to normal version on press 2 then press 3 mirrored on that angle the press again rotates to normal. so 8 presses will rotate 360 degrees and present both mirrored and normal :)
  
  Love the game btw and love this development forum

  Yes! None of the buildings have text on them, so a simple mirror building modifier key or something for placement wouldn't require any special asset work. Workers and Resources recently added a whole slew of mirrored buildings and it made such a massive difference, so good.

  that would help a lot when tring to fit things in tight gaps. Maybe by pressing "i" on the keyboard or something

  It would make a lovely addition for those of us craving symmetry just a little too much to add a mirrored double lodge. I love the feature or the "normal" lodge and "mirrored lodge" and it would make me incredibly happy to see this extended to the double lodge.

  We should have Mirrored versions for all buildings and more power shaft options like Hi-Power shaft turn, Hi-Power shaft T-intersection, Hi-Power shaft cross-intersection, Hi-Power shaft U-turn, and U-turn Power shaft.

  I'm going for "The door is a separate thing" Build a house, then place its door. For some buildings I'm fine with that this isn't possible, like the smelter, but storage and housing should be okay

• 10 Jan, '22

  Instead of mirroring have a hotkey that moves the entrance around the building. Then instead of rotating the buildings have a key that flips the long and short axis.

• 16 Jan, '22
  Noel

  'R' to rotate
  'F' to flip/mirror
  Even if internally the left and right versions need to be individual buildings, display the text about them as being identical.

  Craig Merged

  It would be awesome to allow you to specify where in the building is the entrance (or create multiple entrances into buildings for that matter) E.G. With the Wood Storage allowing a user to click the path into 1 of it's squares would create a path entrance there to the Wood Storage. Also, if you have 4 path squares adjacent to each other (2x2) it really should fill in middle.

  I wish there was a down-vote option on this site.
  I feel that making buildings too adjustable and easily place-able would take away from the clunky Roller Coaster Tycoon feel that the game currently has. Just because other games like City Skylines are soft with bendable roads and hand-hold-y soft building placement, does not mean that every game should adhere to this development of game design. Please allow us to get frustrated that the building is turned the wrong way around and figure out a solution on our own, even if it takes hours!
