Can a new character have the exact same name as their direct ancestor? I would assume so since AFAIK there is no duplicate name check for players in general (never heard for one at least) but would be nice to know in case I end up wanting to kill my character to inherit.

There's duplicate check for character names on the same account. If you don't want to go with the "Bob II" -route, one workaround is to add space at the end of the name to make it look identical to the previous character.

Also you can effectively rename your character by changing your display name before making kin with anyone. Do note that the name you gave to Wizard in character creation room will forever be used in the Character Selection screen and on your skull, should it ever be harvested.

Well damn. This is good to know, thanks for letting me know about this. I've always gone the 'Bob II' route in the past so I never noticed.

Is the bug where you could extend palisades beyond a claim and then use it to cascade still around?

I think so and AFAIK it's a design decision and not a bug. You should always extend beyond the palisade just in case.

(For the record, you cannot extend a palisade to a tile on a claim you don't have vandalism permissions on, not even as an act of vandalism.)

Does Trying to break into a claim with Fences by traping a boar with logs is ok, accepted, work as intended or is it considered as griefing ?
Thanks.
