Claims

Postby AcidSpiral » Mon Mar 25, 2013 8:28 pm

I'm a little confused about how claims work. I've read that they cost upkeep but how do I tell how much it will cost daily?

This is what it looks like now. How can I tell how many days worth of upkeep I have left in it presently?
And with the three checks does that mean only memorized/kin can do these things within the claim?

When a claim is fully filled, the upkeep can last for two months.

upkeep is 4s+(#of tiles/300) a day
a 20x15 plot would be 4s a day upkeep

You assign checks to a colour and a colour to a person

So the only person I've even memorized is also kin and set to white. Is this alright or should I change it?

When the bar is fully red, the claim will last 60 days. This means your claim will currently cost a little over 4 silver each day.

From the relevant announcement post: Click me!

Claim Upkeep
As of right now claims require upkeep to the tune of 4s + (Claimed Area / 300)s per day. If the upkeep is not paid, the claim is turned off and the stone itself becomes possible to destroy. You can charge the claim with enough silver to last 2 months. Previously existing claims will be charged to last one month.



When you memorize people, you can give them a colour (ctrl+B to open Kin list, then click someone and change the colour). In your claimstone you can set different permissions for each colour. In your current settings, kinned players who are set to white will be able to do anything on your claim (we can't see settings for other colours).

this should generally NOT be the case. Teach yourself to set no player on white. There are plenty of other colours, but white is the default colour: if someone has your homestead secret, they'll be able to kin you. They will then turn up in your kin list, white. If they know where you live, they'll be able to wreck havoc on your claim without any crimes being committed.

TLDR;
Don't give permissions to white people (man, that came out wrong)

I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.
