So, I recently made a hotel kind of thing. 16 rooms in total, with double beds, at least one torch and chest in each one. I waited a few days for some villagers to spawn but when they didn't I just spawned some, now they are all piled at the entrance on the bottom floor just standing there. They could leave, but they don't. Any way to get them to wander like regular villagers?
The problem, I suspect, would probably lie in the 'structure' of the hotel and the placement of doors and transparent blocks in your ceiling/roof. since you probably have several interior doors, the simplistic algorithms that calculates the inside an house from the outside the house may be confusing the villager AI (thinking a room is inside, while the lobby is outside...or visa versa) and they may be congregating in your lobby, thinking they are outside.
I suspect that you will need to examine how a 'house' is defined in the game (such as for villager spawning purposes), and pay particular attention to how 'inside' is differentiated from 'outside'.

They have started moving around. It started raining once, and once it stopped they all stormed out. After building a little market plaza thing, I went back and now they are wandering about the place like normal. I guess they just had to get used to it or something? Thanks for the insight though, I will keep it in mind for other buildings.
