tModLoader Start with base

[Unftf]

is there a way to have the pylons but also start with the big base cus the only way im able to get the big version is if i start only with the base and nun else. if i have to im capable of editing the configs of the mod but id rather not if i can help it. also i just want to say this mod is amazing and so helpfull i suck at building but with this it makes everything so much easier.

Hi MoldyButter,
sorry for let you waiting so long, just noticed it today.

The house size is scaled with the total NPC count. If the Pylons are active they also 'consume' some NPC slots. Every Pylon needs at least 2 of them.
After that, the main house at spawn no longer requires that many NPC slots.

Currently it is not possible to maintain the size of the spawn house. There is only some work-around by activating some mods which just add some town NPC's. If added enough the house will get bigger again. After world generation those mods can be removed again.

I also thought about this problem. It can be different for every player. Some prefer a smaller base, some a larger one.
But so far I didn't came up with some easy solution to solve this problem.
I could add another UI element which allows setting a custom town NPC count. The UI is already pretty full, may require some extra window, which requires some extra work.
Another alternative would be some options menu or some configuration inside tModloader. Not included yet. Would require some amount of work getting working probably.

There are many things which could be improved but currently there is not much free time available. I increased the priority of it at my ToDo list.
The next update will most likely have this option.
But I guess there won't be any new update before Terraria 1.4.5.
This also has some updates for NPC housing. Some base designs might not work anymore.

thanks man one more thing Ive been wondering is are you ever going to make the mod compatible with remnants or is that to hard to do or just not possible in the first place idrk how coding terraria mods work Im more familiar with Minecraft modding but they seem pretty different
