Scents and distances

[mindwarp]

Are scents weaker the farther they are from where the crime was committed? Does my path give off a scent no matter how far I travel after stealing something?

[mindwarp]

How far must I travel in order to be safe from somebody killing me for theft?(assuming I bring my hearth fire with me)

From what i have gathered it goes away after a time but you can just run away from the crime with your Hearth fire and no one will bother to walk a long way just to kill you or whatnot.

Tread carefully, I was slaughtered for stealing so don't do it. but i was stupid and thought no1 was playing this game D;

So they have to catch my scent close to where I stole something and then follow it to me? Somebody far away can't just intercept the scent if I walk past their village?

You will be found either way, if the people really want to find you via scents. There's no way to actually hide or run away from scents, only thing you can do is build a vault.

@mindwarp just a hint - you got an Edit Button at your posts

the reason for this post: viewtopic.php?f=29&t=30175

Scents don't get weaker with greater distance (only time makes them disapear) and can be tracked all over the map...don't forget lot of players are connected and thus also share crossroads so for them it's easy to "jump" over big distances...it's also possible just to give the scents to someone else who lives in the SG you're at to track you ...

You'll only leave scents where crime is committed - that's what can be tracked by showing a direction - "your path don't give off scents"

I am starting a new village and recruiting a few people. I will provide protection in exchange for your labor.
