Only useful if equipped with items. Attach items here to provide bonuses to residences and public buildings.
Town Hall is an Administration Building which provides bonuses to residences and public buildings within its radius, if equipped with appropriate items. It can be built in the Old World (and Cape Trelawney), the New World and Enbesa. It does not need any road connection.
Functionality[]
Town hall can affect only those buildings which are located within its radius, no road connection between the buildings is required. The radiuses of different town halls cannot overlap; however, they can overlap with the radiuses of other types of administration buildings. This means that each building can be affected by only one town hall at once (with the exception of clipping).
While placing a town hall or when having it selected once it is placed, its radius is indicated by a blue circle surrounding it. The buildings which are within its radius and can be affected by the town hall have the area underneath them highlighted in blue. Additionally, when a building is currently affected by the items equipped in the selected town hall, the building itself is also highlighted. When constructing a building which can be affected by a town hall, the area underneath the town hall is highlighted if the constructed building would be placed within its range.
Town hall on its own cannot have any effect on surrounding buildings without having any items equipped inside it. Only the items which are equippable in town halls can be used and only up to three items can be equipped at the same time (up to four with Open Minds Act palace policy). These items can increase population, happiness, income or workforce generated by residences, range and maintenance costs of public buildings etc. The list of possible effects of town hall items and their explanation can be found on a separate page.
Items can be equipped in two ways:
- Selecting a town hall, clicking on one of the item slots and then choosing desired item.
- Dragging desired item onto a town hall from the item storage menu of the island's trading post or warehouses, or from ships which are close enough to the island's trading post or piers.
Items can be unequipped by selecting a town hall and then right-clicking on an item in its item slot. The removed item is transferred back to the island's item storage. Some items cannot provide any bonuses by just being equipped in an item slot - these items also have to be activated by left-clicking on them in the town hall's menu.
Interaction with the palace[]
The 
Palace or 
Local Department can interact with the town halls via the Department of Administration and its policies. To have an impact on a town hall or the buildings in its radius, the town hall needs to be connected to the palace or the local department via roads and needs to be within their street range. The buildings within the town hall's radius still do not require any road connection to the town hall or the palace to benefit from the effects of the items or the policies.
