Iron stoves is a good idea. Building on water should be harder than building on land, so don't worry about making these houses easy to build at the start of the game. But if you were to change them that means new models, more work. So I can understand if you want to leave them as they are. Perhaps as a separate mod at a later date?

Those large stone chimneys don't seem to fit these dock houses.

Chapter 7


  Kylandro decided he had to make an emergency run back to the swamp.  He ordered a small warehouse to be built on the swamp stream and wanted as many herbs and nonperishable foods taken there as we could spare.  Walnuts and sea biscuits from the booty ship would be good choices.  He was very pleased when the swamp villagers donated several crates of apples.  A small pile of  peg legs were also stacked in the boat.

  Just as he was about to leave, Ladarion, the seed trader, arrived.  Kylandro told me to trade whatever I had to, even the rum, to get the wheat seeds the trader had.  Me?  Why not the first-mate?  Oh, the first mate was left in charge of the ship and the crew.   Okay then.  I would get those wheat seeds.

 Kylandro just left when Havenita, the resource merchant arrived.  Oh my gosh, he had a treasure map!  Yes, a treasure map.  I wanted that treasure map.  I asked the first mate what I should do.  He said he would not tell me what to do, I was the captain's woman, it was for me to decide.  At least he did not call me pirate's wench.  He did say these river boatmen were trusted friends of the captain, if they had a treasure map to offer then it was genuine and there would be a profit to be made by trading for it.  He smiled kindly and said I should not worry that Kylandro would be displeased with any decision I would make.

  I asked Havenita if he would wait until I got together enough trade goods together for the treasure map.  He would not take any rum because he was on his way back to Riverboat Junction.  They would only trade it to fellow pirates for a huge profit, better to take it to the other pirates ourselves.  Oh, so this river boatman was also a pirate.   He said he would wait, he was in no hurry to get back to the Junction.

  Kylandro had been in a hurry, he arrived back just before the end of the year.  He was pleased to hear I got the wheat seeds.  Our 4 children were happy to have him back and so was I.  Year 7 had been a good year.  Pirate's Cove had a population of 49, 29 adults, 4 students, and 16 young children.

Was a busy day and made some good progress on several mods.

Had to raise the floor of the swimming pool a bit as the kids were going head under. so the kids are about shoulder height in the water and adults about their waste.
Two fountains finished and got the running water flowing worked out so implement it in 1 more fountain.

Searched and found some textures for the statues of the Arc de Triomph.

The pool has three water falls with flowing water. It is because of the size quite subtle but still visible.

Good Lord! I had no idea I was hanging out with such a high end crowd! Fast Ryzens, GTX 1080s and flashing lights besides! Now my LEDs are glowing green with envy--though I wouldn't want a computer fire to get there. That is some scary [expletive deleted].
