Stealing from hearthfires

Would prevent alt vaulting stuff, would also prevent alts collecting localized resources, as somebody could steal them from that alt except if you immediately bring them to your village.

Theft gets you red handed and leaves a scent. I doubt that there would be anything to steal from the noobs either.

That the other men suffer is motivation enough for do some action for some sadist men.

This was suggested almost two years ago by LG ...

viewtopic.php?f=48&t=46662#p607714

Personally I'm against it, for the reasons I give in the thread, I do agree that alt-vaulting is an issue when it comes to sieges and localized resources, I just don't agree that stealing from hf's is the solution.

So alt bases become a thing. World littered with house+claim+pali.

They should just add sleepers to the game. When you logout your character lays down and can be looted or attacked.

So what? Effort to build WHOLE ANOTHER BASE is much more than just to click "new character"
And even if you would have multiple bases, items woudl still be reachable, from alt you simply can not ever get them, which is stupid.

That system is implemented in salem now. But have some major issues.

1) if someone want leave game for more than one month they can store valuable stuff on alt. And when come back into game they have a bit more than perfectly clear ground instead of settlement.
2) Even more exploitable in Haven with Localised resources. You just leave Heart fire of your Alt-resource collector in your base and steal from there when resourse is exist in alt inventory. Even not need move alt for a tile avay from recource:Teleportation.

So i against this idea.
