AutoStudy Solution: The Shadowbox

[Lunarius_Haberdash]

Since beds are due to come back into the game, I figured out a great use for them.

Autostudy isn't going away folks, we know that. But at least we can have people offline when it happens so we don't think they're online. Also, for bonus points:

You build a shadowbox that goes next to your bed. Quality determines maximum size/mental weight of the shadowbox?

When you sleep in the bed, you study what's in the box. Shadowboxes are 'keyed' by right clicking and 'claiming' the shadowbox. Anyone can rekey it by right-clicking it if they have theft rights on the claim it sits on, but doing so resets the timer on the items in the shadowbox.

When you log in, if the curios aren't finished, they pause until you sleep again. (Good for long curios like Burning Embers) So you can study them over time. Makes a good use for 'bad' long study curios with high LP turnover.
