20.5 Building Plots in a Region
20.0 Domains & Regions 20.5 Building Plots in a Region

Plots are the buildings and features you place on a region's grid. The plot designs themselves come from your Plot Catalog — if it's empty, add some plots there first.

Adding a plot

On the region map, hover an empty numbered cell and click the green plus to open the Add a Plot form. Then:

  • Choose a Plot — pick a plot from your Plot Catalog (required). Nothing will build until a plot is selected.
  • Override Plot Title — optionally give this placement a unique name for its hover tooltip, useful when several buildings share the same plot design.
  • Rotate Plot Clockwise — leave blank, or rotate the image 90, 180, or 270 degrees.
  • Label Text and Label Color — add a small caption on the cell (up to 15 characters), like For Sale: $400 or Closed, in a color of your choice.
  • Connect a Campaign Shop — link the plot to a Campaign Shop; the tooltip is then set to the shop's name automatically (you can still override it).
  • Description — extra notes for this specific placement, separate from the plot's own catalog description.
Plot sizes and placement

Plots come in three footprints set in the Plot Catalog: regular (one cell), large (two cells), and huge (a full four-cell block). Large and huge plots span more than one cell, so Chronica enforces a few placement rules — it won't let you build where a plot would overlap an occupied cell or fall outside a valid spot, and it'll tell you to pick another cell or rotate. If a target cell is taken, just choose another.

Moving and removing plots

To move a placed plot, open it and pick a new Cell from the dropdown. The red "Delete Cell Plot" button removes it from the map. Removing a plot from a region never deletes the underlying design in your Plot Catalog.
