Editing your town
Default House
Every house in the game has a text description that details everything about the house that the game needs. The default_house is a way of taking everything
that is going to be redundant about a current set of houses and detailing those items once. The default_house can be specified again later, for example,
before specifying a new neighbourhood we will put down a default_house that sets the neighbourhood and, since the original version of Real E$tate Empire
re-uses house graphics, the most commonly used house graphic in a given neighbourhood, for an example open up southside.txt which starts with:
default_house
Neighbourhood southside
Sprite "SOUTHSIDE_HOUSE_1"
Bedrooms 2
Bathrooms 2
house_end
Since all South Side houses are going to be in the southside neighbourhood we specify that neighbourhood. Since SouthSide_House_1 is the most common house
graphic in that neighbourhood we specify that as well and lastly we specify that the place has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms so that only houses with different
numbers of bedrooms or bathrooms have to specify these values.
