I second this. I think having some simple people moving in and around the grounds would be a cool feature to have. Maybe the inhabitants would change depending on the type of environment you create. Similar to how doors and windows change their outer appearances if you click a few times.

Maybe not people... But most definitely we need birds that can sit on the rooftops or lampposts!

Yes ! It need movement, like frogs, birds or cat ! It would be cool too to have wind or thunder

Nothing overly fancy, either. They just walk around a bit, sit in the grass, lean against a wall, and maybe whittle under a tree. More animals would be a nice feature, too.

Yes! People, please! Even if it is very basic!

This! It's just about adding some movement, some dynamics, that's all. We already have the sheep and butterflies, but any critter would be welcome. Frogs, squirrels, pigs, birds, all great. But also something like weather vanes, or when/if water is added a turning water wheel would be great.

I would also love to see this. Like if we have a bigger map and make a little village on one side and another village on the other and connect them by a road, little carriages would move back and forth. And other interactions happening as well. There's laundry on the line and baskets and other stuff, I would love to see people interacting with it. Nothing we control, just little people and animals on a long loop that "live" in the environments we create.

just enough to give the feeling of the place being alive

If possible that would be a cool thing

Yay, people like this :-) Hopefully the devs see it hehe

Really！！！This game so great!! I like it very very very much.But just building will have a little boring,if have some thing like animals or people to play, it will better

it's a slippery slope yall...as soon as we have people, we'll start asking to be able to give them simple routines or objectives, then we'll want different clothes, different items, then quests...unless...🤔

It's just a suggestion, the devs are fully in their rights to say no

I support your opinion. Previously, I played a game called Townscaper. I liked its concept. I like building in the game, but it lacks liveliness because there are no humans. Finally, I didn't play for long; I stopped playing. For me, it is unfortunate to build a beautiful house but have no citizens.

I vote no to this idea. I see this as a simulation of building a diorama, a model, like something you would make on a table in your home or workshop, which is why the camera modes closely mimic real cameras and give a solid sense that you're looking at a miniature.

I have no interest in seeing humans or any other dwellers muddling about, dealing with pathfinding and whatnot, because that would invoke a sense of needing to manage or care for them, which would eliminate the relaxation element for me. At the MOST, I wouldn't mind having static non-moving models of human characters in various poses that you could place wherever you want, similar to how model train builders add little people to their train layouts.
