MONASTERY

Monastery - View of monastery

Monastery is defined as having a rural, alpine theme. Monastery is a residential sim with the exception of the Monastery itself. Commercial functions are not permitted. The time period is indeterminate. It is a double-prim sim, which means that a 512 m2 parcel has 234 prims allotted instead of the usual 117.

Monastery has two zones which are used to define expected appearances of builds and/or different administration of land and typologies used to define plot type. Plots are identified by a string X-0, corresponding to Typology-Number.
