Decorative layout

[SSJshenron]

Salutations, a while back I tried to maximize my layout and I'm just wondering how well I ended up doing. I ended up with 156.75 decorative multiplier and 29 popularity. That's all popularity buildings and decorative buildings with no justice buildings. I don't have a active premium anymore so moving things around isn't so easy, if there's a well known better setup, Id love to hear before I start trying to copy that layout on newer villages. Thanks for your time!

That sounds pretty solid to me

I have a similar setup with

+30 popularity
+156 - 159 honor multiplier from decorations

I had found a detailed forum post with screenshots which showed exactly how to lay everything out.. but I can't find it anymore.

Let me look around some more and I will send forward it to you if I can find it

Pretty Good. I came up to 126, but that's because I'm using 2 sides for Banqueting production.

Basic Idea - What I do

1. Place all entertainment buildings as far away from keep as possible while keeping max bonus (+6) for each
2. Place all formal gardens starting at front door of keep with max bonus (+6)
3. Place all gilded statues around keep with max bonus (+8)
4. Squeeze in stone statues around keep where you can get best bonus (+6)
5. Then dovecotes around keep I usually get around 3.5 ish
6. Flowerbeds will usually give me 1.5

Entertainment - Maxed at 30 at all times
Honor multiplier - Hovers around 156 - 159 (from decorative buildings)
Religious buildings - Pushed into the corners (partially off the screen) as they have no placement restrictions and some also provide a honor multiplier

This is where I got most of my ideas to maximize literature and decoration buildings (assuming ARTs is already maxed)
