UO Second Age

I recently placed 3 smalls in a spot of an IDOC tower. There's 2 small rocks where the tower was. Can I place over a tower over these since there was on there already? Or was this tower grandfathered? Anyone know?

Depends on the rocks I believe. I am no expert but posting a screenie might help.

Or if you want this place to remain hidden just try placing it after the last save which I believe is around 7am EST.

I can verify placement on my test server if you give me the location.

In most cases if you wan walk over it you can place over it.

Best way to test is wait until server wars, the server isn't saving at that time so anything you do will get reverted to the last save.

Well it's no rush as I can't afford a tower yet anyway, was just curious. I can walk over the rocks as if they aren't there. When I can afford it I may give it a shot when the server goes down. Thanks for the suggestion and ty for the offer TI

Passable rocks do not block house placement.

You can test with a large brick or patio. 3 smalls are 131k and a large brick which is 14x14 tiles is 144k.

Tower has same footprint as brick?

Tower is 14 NS x 16 EW (patio is 14 x 15 and only costs 8k more than a large brick).

This sorta bring up something ive been wondering
there have been times when it looks like a house should fit but it says it cannot

what are the current placement rules for a house?
What blocks placement and how far away does it have to be from block-able objects?
and does creature people and or their corpse block placement as well?

but you gotta consider 2 tiles for steps as opposed to 1, and gotta center them, and gotta leave space for the wings, and gotta consider terrain consistent with current patch, and gotta...

Many gottas, not as simple as just a patio.

Any "item" blocks placement, this includes corpses. Check patch notes for current ruleset.
