Make pretty much any valid interior in the game your personal Safehouse with this powerful system.|Hinterland Description}}
With the release of [[Tales from the Far Territory]] Part 6, players have the option to customize a [[Safehouse]] by rearranging furniture, crafting new furniture, hanging portraits on walls, and many other activities.

There are over 800 items that can be moved, broken down, and in some cases, built using this system. There are 150 areas that can be turned into Safehouses, along with several specific "exterior interiors" like the [[Mountaineer's Hut]] in Timberwolf Mountain, and the Lookout Towers.

== Overview ==
=== Customization Mode ===
When entering an interior that can be customized, an icon of a house will appear in the top left corner of the screen.
* Pressing Y (L1+ R1 on controller) will cause a pencil to appear in front of the house and the player to enter Customization Mode, and the game will show a blue outline over every object that can be moved around.
** The blue outline shown over every object in Customization Mode can be used to navigate through the dark, without having to use a light source.
* You can put things on the floor, the walls, on top of other items, etc. But every item has info that tells it where it can and cannot be placed. This is to avoid silliness.
* You can remove Clutter (like shredded papers on the ground) by pressing the R button (you cannot get it back once this button is pressed).
* You can craft a [[Framed Photo]] from photos you take using the [[Camera]] and even craft/loot [[Decorations]] to display inside any Safehouse.
* Pressing Y (L1+ R1 on controller) again will leave Customization Mode, and cause the game to start saving (this is also a useful way to force an autosave).

=== Repairing Objects ===
You can currently repair a LIMITED number of items inside Safehouses.
* [[Woodworking Tools]] are required to fix things, and repairing items raises the [[Repair]] skill.
* Currently you can repair a lot of the broken/missing [[Cabinet Door|Cabinet Doors]] of kitchen [[Cabinet|Cabinets]]. Repairing restores them to their "original" state, and also restores all the container slots (so a Cabinet that had been missing a door and just had an empty space, now has the door and the door becomes a new valid container).
** Destroying/Harvesting the Cabinet Door will make it impossible to repair that cabinet.
* The roofs of the [[Mountaineer's Hut]] and [[Bricklayer's Retreat]] can be repaired (costs 20 [[Cedar Firewood]]). Repairing these roofs will increase the temperature bonus inside the buildings by +3 C.
===Destroying Objects===
Some items in Customization Mode cannot be placed into the player's inventory, they can only moved around or destroyed (typically large items).

Harvestable items can be destroyed quickly, but the player will not receive any materials for doing so (ex, destroying a [[Pillow]] takes 2 minutes and gives nothing, but harvesting it with a [[Hunting Knife]] takes 9 minutes and generates [[Cloth]]). Keep in mind that destroying/moving some objects, like sheet metal or [[Planks]] covering holes in the [[Hibernia Processing]] floors, can create fall hazards.

==Limitations==
===General Limitations===

*Interior spaces only have a select zone that can be customized by the player. Walking outside of the Customization Zone (usually by exiting to the outside of the building via a door) will issue a warning to the player. Anything outside of this zone behaves normally and cannot be customized.
*[[Work Bench|Work Benches]] cannot be moved, but the Vice can be removed from an existing Work Bench by destroying the entire object, and then used as a raw material in the construction of a new Work Bench. This means you can build a Work Bench in a location that is more useful to you, but only by sacrificing an existing bench, so there are still only ever going to be a certain number of Work Benches in the world. When you remove the Vice from an existing Work Bench, it becomes a regular table.
* You can still Break Down items to get resources from them when in regular gameplay. When you're in Safehouse Edit mode, you can Destroy items which goes quickly but you don't get any resources from it. This was to give you a way to clear areas quickly without making it magical or without some reasonable trade-off. If you want to harvest things for resources, don't destroy them in Edit mode.
*You can't destroy containers that have items in them. For example, if you want to destroy a cabinet but there are items in one of the drawers, you will have to remove the items first. Keep in mind that if you destroy an item in a Safehouse, you can't rebuild it, so please be careful what you destroy because you may not be able to get it back.
*[[Frozen Corpse|Frozen Corpses]] and [[Corpse|Corpses]] cannot be destroyed or moved, only "respectfully removed" as part of general Safehouse clean-up.

===Console Limitations===
This feature is very memory intensive, so it's very likely there will be a hard limit on consoles for how many items you can have inside an interior:

*Most PC players should be fine, but it partly depends on your computer specs.
* Building limits for console (Xbox, PlayStation) is likely be in the 100s of items per scene.
*The Nintendo Switch '''will be the most restricted''' due to hardware limitations.

==Safehouse Decorations==
In general, you can take most decorative items (ex. wall hangings, vases, plates, etc.) and add them to your Backpack in the [[Decorations]] section. They have weight, so you will want to account for that when you move them around (some can be 5.00kg). The [[Travois]] can be a potential way to move large amounts of Decorative items around the world.

A [[Furniture Workbench]] and [[Woodworking Tools]] are required to build furniture for a Safehouse.

*Items that only have a Decorative value will live in the Decorations section of the Backpack Inventory, and won't appear in the General tab to avoid your inventory being cluttered with a bunch of random stuff that doesn't have gameplay value.
*When you drop decorative items in the world, they spawn a small [[Safehouse Decoration Box]], because these items don't exist as "gear items" outside of Safehouses the way normal gear items (like food, or tools, or clothing) do.

For a full list of Decorative items, see [[Decorations]].

==Safehouse Locations ==
The following locations support Safehouse Customization. Keep in mind that inside and outside customization zones are counted separately due to loading zones/outdoor customization boundaries.

Note: [[Prepper's Abandoned Cache]] can be destroyed at the end of [[Sutherland's Tale]], rendering it inaccessible as a Safehouse.
