Best Town Layout

Pretty sure this is it. Can't think of much improvement other than the well being in the center.

Re: Best Town Layout

Ok, what about is important? I imagine “this next to that” relationships. But what about size, alignment, orientation, distance?

A simple improvement I can recommend is to plant trees on a diagonal. This lets you walk between them (and between the stacks of branches).

Re: Best Town Layout

This next to that, yeah.

The alignments are also pretty good. Mainly I like roads to be straight and uninterrupted.
I suppose the road 'cell' size could be more consistent, ie matching the smith size.
That would look neater from a satellite but wouldn't really be any more functional.

I did the trees but not the coal, would have liked to put a stone road running through it but the tracks would interrupt that no matter what (I think)

Planting diagonal would be kinda odd but I guess a zigzag would work -- that's what I usually do with the branch piles.

Re: Best Town Layout

I thought it would be better to build the kitchen amid the farm. But every families have their kitchen adjacent to the nursery and usually above the farm. I could not think of a reason why my design isn't better.

I didn't actually build one. I just imagine that if you plant crops around the kitchen, it would be more efficient to cook stuff. Also makes it easier for farmers to drop by and eat at the kitchen.
