Torch posts in the middle of split-rail fence corner posts look great. I want to be able to do that.

Hi All,

I'm very new to this game and I apologize if this topic was mentioned before or for any reasons it will be unacceptable.

I think it would be nice to add some more tools to base constructing/destroying. I think that destroying things on your own property should be one click function.
For example brick walls. It takes ages to destroy it and it is no fun at all. If it is on your claimed land - right click - destroy (done instantly). You might be able to get some components back - same as rags when destroying clothes.

I understand that I will probably get a reply along the lines: "Yes but it's not realistic".. Well.. Building a farmers house takes less then a minute but destroying a brick wall takes about 15 minutes. Hmmm...

Who ever in their right mind thinks anything in salem is realistic?! :shock:

Anyway this would be far far too easy, the claim already removes the soak of the wall, and why the hell don't you just plan it out when making a brick wall even though you know they are the strongest wall around?

The best planning includes destroying, simple math:
1 S&G brick = 400-700s
1 personal claim to make a hole for gates = 150s (or free if you have needed biles)
That doesn't concern 1 gate walls ofcourse, but I prefer comfort of being able to go in any direction.

IKR. It is extremely annoying. But then it will be too easy for people to take over noobs/unaware people. It would be great if the wall remember who make it and let him destroy it in a faster way.

If too many people want it EVEN easier to destroy stuff on your pclaim. I will once again put it back so that things on your own pclaim have soak.

Accept your nice thing. Demand more at the risk of losing it.

It's not about how easy it is to destroy things. It's about OWNER to be able to destroy things faster on his claim.

OR ...

Add a pack of TNT so we can blow things up. Problem Solved!

the owner IS able to destroy things faster on his claim.
I have neither the crayons nor the time to explain it to you.
