Hotspot

A hotspot is a pre-defined place to build a specific type of furniture in a player-owned house used in the Construction skill. Hotspot locations cannot be changed by players, unless the room is removed and rebuilt in a different way.

When the player is in Building mode, vacant hotspots appear as ghostly figures of the lowest piece of furniture that can be built there. Hotspots, that have not been built on, do not appear while Building mode is OFF.

Furniture creation menu
Clicking on a hotspot will open up the Furniture Creation Menu, showing a list of furniture that can be built, the required Construction level, and the materials required.

Also, a player can assemble flatpacks at a hotspot, given that the type of flatpack corresponds to the hotspot it is being assembled at. To set up a flatpack a player must simply use the flatpack with the hotspot. There is no skill requirement for setting up a flatpack but no xp is gained.

After the desired furniture has been chosen, a short animation showing the player hammering will occur. Once built, the furniture will appear solid, both in and out of building mode. The player can then use the built furniture.

If building in a curtains hotspot, but the hotspot is on a wall that doesn't lead to the outside, the curtains on that wall will become a wall decoration instead. The wall decoration will vary in style, e.g. building a torn curtain wall decoration will look different to building an opulent curtains wall decoration.
