The House Builder

This week, I created the House Builder in response to Z-indexing issues I encountered last week. I also did a lot of code organization.
The House Builder handles...building the houses...in all of their different shapes and then spawns them as a series of rectangular house pieces. This works properly but the houses don't look too appealing yet. Attached you can see an image of each of the three special house shapes. First is a gamma/L–style house, second is a pi/U–style house, and last is a tau/T–style house. Currently they don't support any other orientations, and I'm not sure if they will because I feel like they might look too confusing, and I think clarity is more important than variety.
You can also see new grass textures in the background. The background was added behind the house images, so don't worry about the fact that the trees are under the paths. This is closer to how the final grass texture will appear, but there's still a lot of room for improvement; I was just getting tired of looking at that pale lime color.
