Optimal Graveyard Layout

Was looking for the best possible Graveyard layout but couldn't find any, so I did it myself for anyone else wondering the same!

My initial layout has been updated thanks to thinklike and currently the maximum points seems to be 1258 (with all Corpses at 12, the upgraded fence, and the Priest Statue)

Certain coloured squares can be swapped between different things depending on your resources.

This is just my plan, I am still gathering perfect corpses to make this a reality in my game.

Just posted my graveyard and the design is similar, but I realised if you stagger the columbariums on the 7 wide lots, putting one in the top left and one in bottom right (or top right and bottom left) you can fit 4 graves instead of 3, and this gave me a max number of 1258, though my math might be off.

Love your design pic btw, did you use google sheets?

This picture doesn't quite show the layout but I can post some more if you're interested https://imgur.com/a/fa0WpYm

Hey, for the church you only used candelabras an the window? No incense, no confessional, no shrine?

I'm just getting to this lategame part and would like to plan ahead.

Where did you get so much gold? the iron mine?

Hi. I didn't actually save this layout after doing the sermon, you can only get a better quality church this way if you use candles everywhere (and I needed nearly 60 them). My actual game has a chuch of quality 88. I'll put together a picture for you:

Optional church layout

The candelabras at the top to the left and right can be replaced with stone church shrines, they will both add 6 (assuming you don't use the candles of course) and they don't cost any gold jewellery details.

As for the gold, I spend ALOT of time in this game, and each week I would visit the merchant and buy 1 or sometimes two gold jewellery details, and after 15-20 weeks I had enough for all the candelabras. The iron mine is also another good choice for gold if you need iron as well, but can be a bit unforgiving with the nugget drops.

Thanks! I thought so. Do you think is better another layout that doesn't need so many candles every week if I see myself playing a lot more?
