Oops.. I think it was an optical illusion... its facing sounth after looking at it in screenshot mode.. still looks east in game though lol

Does it look different in game? Cause its unequivocally facing south.

Well... it IS the same, justy gives the illusion of facing east to me.. probably because its facing the mountain and it should be east.. I guess its at a curve.

Ive always wished that you could make door n steps eith south or east. Some locations would be so much better facing east

As I recall there was a book in U7 about why doors can only face south or east...

It would be almost impossible to implement east-facing houses given the current housing rules of UO in general, not just UOF. Since there must be 5 tiles of clearance in front of the steps of a south facing house-- and 1 tile to the east-- before another house can be placed, adding east-facing houses would end up with much of the map becoming impassible since stairways could potentially occupy the 1-tile clearance on the east sides of current house lots.

I'd imagine the only way to implement this would be to alter the entire house placement tool menu to add a separate "east-facing" section that would check for different rules.

I always wished they were implemented since it would add some pretty sweet depth to the look of the map, but it would probably be far too much of a nightmare to code for a dev.
