Lots are the piece that make up the map. Each lot has a capacity of 100,000 without a building. The lot that a family group starts off on is considered their home lot. If another type of group is created it will initially share the same home lot as the family group that created it. Home lots can be changed at any time.

    TERRAIN TYPES

40% or more resources with a higher amount of dirt than water (or the same amount of dirt and water). Adjacent lot gradient increase: n/a.

DESERT

80% or more dirt with a higher amount of resources than water (or the same amount of resources and water). Adjacent lot gradient increase: n/a.

FIELD

a meadow or plain that has been farmed. Adjacent lot gradient increase: n/a.
