it would be nice if you were able to have each side of a wall be a different style, as it stands now if you make 1 building with multiple rooms you need to use the same style of walls everywhere or it looks quite weird.
it would also be nice if you were able to replace walls or doors with another of the same item without having to move items that are close or on the walls.

Technically this is a bit of a challenging request but similar requests were reported during the development of Winkeltje. Fortunately, there have been some improvements in the underlying tech to eventually make it possible to change the 'wallpaper' material of a wall. Basically, this means that you could have a wall with a brick texture on the outside and plaster on the inside. This is very much a future vision and we are currently focusing on other things but it should technically be possible to eventually support this with Faire Trade.
Some improvements to retain wall furniture after changing walls may be possible after recent updates to wall colliders. Unfortunately, there needs to be a collision check to make sure nothing intersects when changing from one wall to another which triggers the question whether you want the wall furniture removed.

I can see how that would be a bit tricky. it would be like you said either using wallpaper/skins on the walls, or have it coded as 2 walls glues together to make the 1 wall. (not tech savvy but sure you can understand what I mean by that one. xD )
I understand there needing to be a collision check, the issue I am seeing right now is having to move the paintings and such while wanting the wall to stay where it is.

I see what you mean with gluing walls together but that is a lot more problematic than you might imagine. Some walls area taller than others and not all wall beams are the same. Manually creating a new wall model for each possible glued wall combination creates an exponential amount of new walls that will take ages to create and in some cases is not even possible when you consider that a fence and bricks are both walls.
Reducing the amount of paintings that need to be replaced when changing out walls should be something that's possible to improve on and I look forward digging into that when the time comes. 😄

that does sound complicated. excited to see where the game ends up at. I keep booting it up once in a while as it is nice and relaxing.

Glad to hear it! We are currently working on controller support as that has been requested several times already but it's a lot of work. 😅
