Realistic Rooms Rewritten

Description
For 1.6, 1.5, 1.4 and 1.3

Lower your room space requirements!

Safe to add mid-save.

What is this?
This mod is a complete rewrite of the original Realistic Rooms mod by Dragon Fist Ent (here) and it's updated version by Scherub (here).

The original mod uses outdated methods which cause incompatibilities with other mods.

This mod is also FULLY CONFIGURABLE from the in game settings menu.

What does it do?
This mod lowers the required space for each tier of room size (cramped, rather tight, etc.).

The table below shows the comparison between vanilla and this mods default values, along with the values from the original Realistic Rooms mod.

IMPORTANT! These values are not the number of tiles in a room, the formula the game uses for this is ([numOfWalkableTiles] * 1.4) + ([numOfOccupiedTiles] * 0.5)
Meaning that an empty 4x4 room will actually score 22.4 on space.

The default values are somwhere between the original mod and it's lite version. I find these to be more balanced. If you like you can change the values in the config menu to whatever you prefer. I do recommend using x.5 values for rounding reasons explained at the bottom.

I have also included a feature from the original mod which lowers the beauty impact of dirt and sand dropped inside a room.
Because a bit of dirt on the floor doesn't make the room uninhabitable.

QA
Q: Why use this mod instead of this one instead?
A:That mod doesn't support decimal values. That's literally it.
Mod no longer updated.

Q:Why are all the default values .5
A: Game rounds up on the GUI. Without the .5 the number shown in-game would not match directly with the tiers.

COMPATIBLE WITH 1.6

@Xera - That doesn't make any sense, since the mod on here is marked for 1.6

the 1.6 issue showing as 1.5 is a steam issue not a author issue. Just download it manually from their github.

do we know if this mod works with royalty and helps reduce their bedroom requirements or is that not included in this mod

Hey I think I read somewhere that you have to update like an xml or some kind of extension that will help the mod tell the game that it is working for 1.6 I imagine it still works with 1.6 but it says in the game and for everyone elses game that your mod is only up to 1.5

Oct 14, 2025 @ 10:41am 
It is not updated and the game says that it is 1.5 and not 1,6

Looks like steam is doing the "not loading current version" thing compared to the github version. (missing the 1.6). I see this a lot on some mods. Unsub/resub doesn't work for me.I'll grab from github for now. Thx.
