Removed writ of ownership line. Writ of Ownerships are no longer in the game. Added information regarding new permissions. Possible tidying needed.

Symmetrical doughnut house formula where x is the the number of tiles that make up one side of the doughnut hole:
<center>(12 * x) + 12</center>
Helpful tools can be found in the External Tools section towards the bottom of this page.
If you are in a [[village]], you may be able to persuade someone with high carpentry skill to plan your house and then hand over the [[writ]]add you to permissions.
== Finding a Location ==
The majority of the work is now over. You now need to add a roof and a floor to your house. Right-click the ground with your mallet activated and click "plan floor," then right-click the ground again and click "plan roof." Then right-click each plan with your mallet activated and plan a type of floor and roof. A [[Wooden plank floor|Wooden Plank Floor]] is probably easiest along with a [[Wood shingle roof|Wood Shingle Roof.]] You'll need 3 [[Small Nails|Small Nails]] and about 15 [[planks|planks]] (some of which will need to be carved into [[wood shingle|wood shingles]] to complete both the floor and the roof.
 
When all this is done so is your house, w00t! {{smiley}}
 
Your house is now complete with a roof, floor and finished walls. It's probably quite simple; but when you're a more skilled player you could make something much better, fancier and with more than one floor! See [[Multi-storey housing|multi-storey housing]] for more information.
=== Inner walls ===
Inner walls can only be planned once all the exterior walls of a house are complete. To plan inner walls activate a [[mallet]] or [[trowel]], right-click a tile border inside the house and select ''Plan'' > ''Inner wall''. On the wall plan select a wall type and continue as explained above.
Note: Only the owner of the === Multi-story housing === Your house writ can add inner is now complete with a roof, floor and finished walls. It's probably quite simple; but when you're a more skilled player you could make something much better, fancier and they require 30 Carpentry skill to plan (and possibly to also build)with more than one floor! See [[Multi-story housing|multi-story housing]] for more information.
== Repairing your house ==
'''Tip:''' To improve your house walls, activate a [[Plank]], right-click your house wall, and select '''Improve'''. Success and amount of improvement depends on your [[carpentry]] skill.
== Managing your Writ permissions and Securing your Home ==
A [[Writ of Ownership]] will appear in your [[inventory]] the moment you click 'Finalize Building'. Writs Permissions are used to control who has access to your home or building, to lock or unlock all doors with a [[door lock]] on them, to change the name of the building, or to destroy the whole structure (and the writ with it). Just right-click your body in the writ character menu and select 'Manage> Buildings'. Add other Here, you can add players to your friend a list, and they will appear on to grant them different permissions for your writ management screenbuilding. To allow access, simply select them as gueststype their name into the ''add players to list''section. :) Writ also acts as a key for all Click the doors add button, and they will appear on your buildingthe list of manageable permissions.
'''No player can pick up items from a finished house without being added as a guest on the writ permissions of the building. Any player can get inside a finished house (but not pick anything up) unless relevant doors are locked with a [[door lock|door lock.]]''' Writs cannot be dropped, even if you die, but can be [[trade]]d to another player.
== [[Stone house]]s ==
It's possible to build a house made of stone following the guide above ([[Account Types|premium players]] only), however the material requirements are different :
*Skill requirement : 30 [[Masonry]].
*[[Trowel]] for building the stone walls.
*20 x [[Stone Brick]] for each segment of wall.
*20 x [[Mortar]] for each segment of wall.
*10 x [[Stone Brick]] + 10 x [[Mortar]] for each floor segment (if you're doing a [[Stone brick floor]])
Basically once you have planned the layout of your structure you activate the [[Trowel|iron trowel]] and start building the walls. It is even possible to mix stone and wooden walls in the same house (based on which tool you start the wall with).
 
== Cave dwellings ==
It is possible to build houses in caves. You can build any type of wall underground, however you cannot build roofs in cave dwellings.
 
In order to do this you would need to activate a [[hammer]], [[Mallet]], or [[Trowel]] and right click a flat reinforced cave floor tile. The houses can only be built touching a cave wall if and when all the tiles are on deed and they do not have an adjacent perimeter tile. If any of the adjacent tiles are perimeter tiles the perimeter tile must be mined out. Alternatively, houses in caves cannot be built touching a cave wall if they are off deed. If you attempt to plan a house that is outside the previously stated parameters you will get the following message: {{event|inline| You cannot build here, there must be a gap around the building.}}
