I might have worded myself badly. I'm perfectly ok with people being unable to see the mill, if there's a wall inbetween. What I can't understand is that they can't see the mill when it's the mill that's inbetween.

So walls don't have to be complete to have affect..... right? They can just go in front of a building and the un-disierability is gone..... right? ...??

Has anyone thought about their effect on desirable structures? A while ago, I remember BAChuck saying that they also "blocked" desirability as well as undesirability. I wonder if placing a garden next to a res. wall is a waste of money. Do res walls need to be at least 10 tiles away from palaces in order to get the full desirability? If so, that seems like the greatest layout challenge.

So we could eventually have Elegant housing next to Industrial sections?

There may be a tradeoff between the decreased challenge due to residential walls and the increased challenge of perfect feng shui...however I'd say that having a wall on the far side negating the effects on the near side is, at best, an "undocumented feature."

Just a Q. Any relevance about the colour of walls? Do the different colours mean anything?

That's a good one. I usually use that one and the red one on the same map for different neighborhoods. (Doesn't red mean good luck and prosperity in Chinese tradition?)

Those have a very big following, Jayhawk. Alot of people say that's their favorite (gray I believe). For some reason, I always associate the round gate with a garden. Isn't it officially called a moon gate?
