Build Mode in inZOI is already very promising, but a few additional tools could make building much more flexible and realistic. These features would help players create more varied homes, neighborhoods, and interiors.
Here are some improvements that could make a big difference:
• Terraforming Tools: More control over terrain so lots can feel less flat and more natural.
Possible tools:***
- raising or lowering terrain
- smoothing or flattening areas
- creating hills, slopes, and small embankments
- terrain paint for dirt, grass, paths, etc
This would allow builders to create more organic landscapes and interesting lot layouts.
Basements & Underground Spaces: The ability to build below ground level.
Uses could include:
- basements for homes
- underground garages
- storage rooms
- hobby spaces or studios
This would greatly expand what players can do with vertical space.
• Wainscoting / Wall Paneling Options: More ways to decorate interior walls.
Examples:
- wainscoting panels
- decorative wall trims
- split wall textures (top and bottom materials)
These details help interiors feel more realistic and architecturally varied.
• More Dynamic Roof Tools: Greater control over roof shapes and adjustments.
For example:
- adjustable roof curvature
- more roof styles
- finer angle control
- easier roof merging and shaping
Roofs define the overall silhouette of a building, so more flexibility here would help builders create unique homes.
• Smaller / Less Bulky Furniture: Some furniture pieces could benefit from slightly smaller footprints or more size variation.
This would help with:
- apartments
- small homes
- realistic room layouts
More compact items would make interiors easier to design and less crowded.
• Clutter & Shelf Filling Tools: A system that allows players to easily fill surfaces with decorative items.
Examples:
- place multiple objects on shelves
- clutter tables and counters
- stack or group small objects
- mix functional and decorative items
This would help interiors feel lived-in and personalized.
Quick summary of the wishlist:
- Terraforming tools for terrain shaping
- Basements and underground building
- Wainscoting and wall paneling options
- More flexible roof editing tools
- Smaller / more compact furniture sizes
- Better clutter placement for shelves and surfaces
These additions could make Build Mode much more creative and free for builders. Canvas creators, both for zois and for buildings, are a big part of the player base that never leaves or foundation player base, and I think we should not be forgotten or ignored.
