Good job. We just finished thoroughly testing destroying our own authority objects. Good luck with the rest of them.

Destroying auth objects with silver in the bell and not being in village sounds like a bug to me. Hope you reported it before you destroyed that.

So your saying somebody should be able to make a wall of border stones and simply keep silver in their town bell and they have an indestructible wall? Sounds like somebody doesn't understand game mechanics.

No, I think auth objects should be able to be walked through. Also, what you mentioned is akin to a Hearthvault, and those are usually nuked from the heavens by the hand of the devs when one is found.

Do you think you should be confined to the standard vclaim size and not be able to expand? Because if an auth object can just be broken by anyone, at anytime, there's no point in them being in the game really. Break a wall, break the stone, no more braziers firing on you if the area isnt under a pclaim. GG. Sounds like a bug to me, still.

I like the idea of making them a pass-through object. But I don't see why somebody would not just wall in their authority objects in little boxes so that if somebody wants to take them out they have more to work on. And areas SHOULD be under Pclaims anyway please don't use Stax's Failplan Floorplan as any indication on how anything should be built.

True enough, some extra walling would help around the objects. The thing with them even being destroyable to people not in the same village though seems off to me, but if its working as intended I suppose it adds a bit more forethought into village layout if someone wants to expand, which is good.

I'm just 99% positive I've seen a statement about auth objects not being bashable by non villagers if the bell has villagers and silver in it, which is why it seems buggish to me. Damned if I can find it at the moment though :(

Might change your opinion when you realize that they built their TOWN claim authority objects on MY personal claim :). Pretty sure I can destroy anything on my personal claim.

That's a horse of a different color then, it's sounding like pclaims override vclaims now. Which is how it should be tbh, in case a hermit gets belled, they can still do things on their claim without being drained into oblivion for an easy-mode kill when they ko for a day.

Heh! Authority objects weren't destroyable in HnH (by anyone other than the lawspeaker or chieftain) until the village ran out of authority. I wonder what made them change their minds.... Or maybe it's a bug?
