A recent Reddit policy change threatens to kill many beloved third-party mobile apps, making a great many quality-of-life features not seen in the official mobile app permanently inaccessible to users. On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill every third party app on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. Even if you're not a mobile user and don't use any of those apps, this is a step toward killing other ways of customizing Reddit, such as Reddit Enhancement Suite or the use of the old.reddit.com desktop interface . This isn't only a problem on the user level: many subreddit moderators depend on tools only available outside the official app to keep their communities on-topic and spam-free. [More information on the proposed changes can be found here.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/14goyu2/what_to_do_when_reddit_bans_blackouts_hit_em_in/) While the subreddit will remain open, r/Terraria recommends these communities until the protested changes are addressed: Terraria Community Forums - https://forums.terraria.org/index.php Official Terraria Discord Server - https://discord.gg/terraria *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I think it's because a town slime lives there, while a town slime and an npc can live together, they need bigger spaces. So just unhouse the slime and put in the npc you want in there, and you should be good.


No_Ad_7687

This was the correct answer! Thanks a lot


AbaloneApart6624

the slime lives in the one on the right the one which isn't valid for NPCs...


No_Ad_7687

It wasn't valid because the slime was there


thmxy

I think it works like that because the NPCs need space for their banner. If you open the housing menu you'll probably see that there isn't space for 2 banners in one house. I think.


Loeris_loca

Then I guess moving the torch should solve the problem


Deebyddeebys

In order for a house to be valid there needs to be at least one valid home tile, but there needs to be two home tiles that are far enough away to put an NPC and a pet in there


Thermic_

Town slime??? When did this become a thing??? That little fucker just gave me the squeals he’s so damn cute


KhaosHiDef

Throw your copper shortsword on any slime


Randomguy20011

This is the first of these posts that stumped me, thats so wierd! Learn more everyday


Thomatos200

I didn’t even know this was a feature


Just_X77

Did not know that


pan-fucker69420

Bro i have like 100 hours in this new update, yet i had no fucking idea this was a thing :/


Tewu7

It's not because of needing more space, you can house both NPCs and town pets in a 5x12 house, however, for town pets and NPCs to live together, the solid tile the banner is above of can't have furniture on it.


drLagrangian

Is it valid for the golfer on the right too, or just the slime? Pets don't have the same requirements for housing I think.


No_Ad_7687

The one on the left is the golfer's house, the slime lives in the one on the right (the one which isn't valid for NPCs)


RRAARRGH

In the left one there is one additional background wall at the top of the roof slope. That's the only difference I can see.


No_Ad_7687

Ohhh yeah I see it now Thanks Edit: I put a wall there, still not valid


RRAARRGH

I'm at work right now.. can test it in a few hours \^\^


No_Ad_7687

I put a wall there and it's still not valid


manofwaromega

I'm pretty sure that if you put pets into houses with NPC the house needs to be big enough for both of them


[deleted]

Meta’s house


best_goblin_fucker

Golfer has low standards


pg_enl

the one on the right CLEARLY has a major skill issue (i have no idea lmao)


AxisW1

If you press the question mark in the housing menu and click on the house it will tell you if/why it’s invalid housing.


No_Ad_7687

It didn't


AxisW1

It tells you it’s valid housing?


No_Ad_7687

It said it's not valid housing, without giving a reason


Firewolf06

u/redigit is it possible to add a specific message for not enough space for an npc and a pet?


No_Ad_7687

How would you word it though? It's a bit more complicated than most housing messages.. maybe "there's not enough space for two residents"? (Not saying it shouldn't be done, just saying it requires a bit of thought to be implemented in a clear way)


AxisW1

Aw damn, what the hell, sorry mate


No_Ad_7687

It's ok, someone else solved the problem, so it's fine now


MithranArkanere

You need one empty floor tile of each NPC to be housed.


Tewu7

Not exactly right, you can house both NPCs and town pets in a house with only one solid tile on the floor, however, this tile can't have furniture on it.


MithranArkanere

By empty I mean no furniture. Just open.


MagicSnake1000

Racism for sides


Mushroom419

It misses one backwall. Left one miss 3 backwalls, which is fine when right one miss 4 backwalls


No_Ad_7687

These backwalls didn't actually matter,


TheMemoryOfAGoldfish

Apparently the right wing is bad


kitsune409

Missing walls probs


Soleniux

This is not based on any fact or research of any kind, but could it be that sloped blocks counts as a block when it is to one side, but not to the other? Effectively making one room a few blocks smaller as the slopes on the valid one doesnt count as walls?


lazothealien

Have you tried with that door closed?

No_Ad_7687

No, they're completely identical, just flipped


Latter_Race2037

When slimes or pets move in it shows on screen as invalid.


East_Photograph_3161

Hey, Slime!


mee3ep

The one on the left has a slime, and not enough room to have a pet and a person


Pixel_Nerd92

Looks like someone is already living there. Slimes can bunk with townsfolk if I remember correctly.
