The requirements since 1.0.6 are very odd. I have a single large house right now where npc's have moved in, in some rather odd circumstances.

I have a demolitionist living in a bathroom that only has a toilet and a bathtub (which neither of which is a flat surface, as you can't place flat surface items on them (mugs, bottles etc.)

The guide moved into one of the floors of the house (has no door, only a platform as an entrance). One might argue that he moved into the house as a whole, but this is not the case, as the nurse moved into the floor directly below, which also satisfies the same condition (has no door, only platforms as access points.)

Under old requirements the layout of this house would contain only 2 npc's, one in the main portion of the house, and one in a sectioned off area with a door separating it from the rest of the house.

I believe that the requirements are either glitched, or are substantially changed, moreso than the patch notes seem to suggest.
