Too many lean-tos

Postby aragaer » Sat Sep 19, 2015 11:03 pm

Me and my alts and few of my friends are all living in my personal claim. Having a total of 6 characters means we have 5 leantos there.

Can we have some other structure that could be used as a homestead? Something that would take less space than a leanto, maybe require a bit more resources to build and decay if outside a p-claim. Also would be nice if such structure if built on a p-claim would allow fast-travelling from anywhere on the claim, similar to what claim owner can do.

Or just propose a structure that is smaller than leanto and could be set as a homestead.

I do have solutions for current situation, I'm just proposing an option that is not gamebreaking and might be helpful for me.

Expand your claim, make a special Place for Habitants.
Build as many Leantos as you need.
Fence them.
All people can move to the new leantos.
Then destroy the old one, which is very easy for you on your claim.
Then you have space where the leantos are now.

Better, build up a Town.
8500 silver, if you have more friends on your claim, is not that much.
You can easily earn them if you all go to a foraging/hunting some days and sell savage charm or soap to the NPC Stall.
Or sell founded things to the people who search for them in Trade Winds.
Then you can give every Character of your Inhabitants the rights to build their own claimstone on your townclaim.
Fence them all and you are more safe. Then you will see, you have enough space for such small and good integratable leantos and much more.

I think, the system is good as it are.

What we need is the 'half-way' house... where multiple folks can call home that takes the place of a bunch of lean-too's~ but I would add in that you have to renew your stay for x silver every few weeks

Step further call it a Guild/Tribe/Clan home.. suspect it should be expensive to make... but would look a lot better than 5-10-20 lean toos, etc..

A leanto is already very small. With that many people on the claim, they should be able to help you raise some silver to expand your claim and then help you build some walls. This does make me think that we should make houses homesteadable, because normal people like to live in houses, and perhaps you must homestead one if you want to advance past certain humors. :lol:

You should have made beds homesteadable a long long long time ago, Most of all if you intend to make it so you can kill people logged off / sleeping inside a bed.

im going to tell you right now the problem with that would be then if some one is about to raid your village that you will have to already have a house made some where in order to be able to escape...... so pretty much the average casual player will lose both village and char...... ***** brilliant.

and you guys probably would not have realized this till like 4 villages of people get completely wiped out... and instead of being like "oops"... you guys would play it off like it was meant to be part of the mechanic and they should have already had a 2nd village ready to flee too and hope it doesn't get waste claimed at the same time or before they make a new 2nd village.
If you guys have questions about radar find me on steam, KiaKun.
sorry for the very late replies.... everyone i played salem with quit... and all my villages have been raided.

You left something out:

No, fun idea, but totally unworkable. I won't be suggesting it.

Though making beds homesteadable is something we were thinking of doing.
