Sauna

Postby LoLa » Sun Feb 28, 2016 2:47 pm

Before you chuckle at the idea of a sauna in H&H let me explain it thoroughly;
I was thinking you know in some games that are similar to Haven & Hearth, they sometimes let you visit a hot springs or sauna to regain your stamina. And I thought you know what a sauna could actually fit into this game considering we've already have things like tables, chairs, cupboards and beds. It's something that has an actual utility function in this game = not a decoration. Make it take a lot of materials to build, but raise stamina(and or energy) faster than sitting in a chair, just by going in it. Hot Springs could be a random resource type thing that spawns in the world, that works the same as a sauna but perhaps is even better. The pit clay resource model in the world, with some slight reworking could be very reminiscent of a hot springs with its bubbling and all.

Yes that could also be a possibility.

Heating up sauna nad using Image to whip would heal wounds by some amount? But this amount would be limited.

Why would anyone do that? Saunas should definitely be a thing.

Should drain your stamina while you are in it.
Staying in too long gives you heat wounds.
Staying in forever kills you.

Benefits? Dunno.

Could give you a relaxation buff that makes stamina drain slower when doing manual labour such as farming, cutting and mining.

This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

I really like the idea of it healing SHP faster. Especially if you could medicate the waters some how with medicinal herbs. Also like the idea it giving you Heat Exhaustion wounds if you use it for too long/often, so it can't be abused in combat situations.
