Nomad Credo

Postby AntiBlitz » Fri Mar 01, 2019 4:42 pm

Perhaps i view the credo differently from your idea, jorbtar. I am suggesting that we keep the nomad credo relevant to the varying continents and not the entire map. I feel like this suggestion only makes sense considering the benefits of the credo, and the idea of what a nomad was. Perhaps this would open up a greater credo for traveling the world.

They talked about this multiple times in yesterdays stream. It was not their intention to have nomad send you across continents.

Same as quests not being send over other continent while I get this every second quest. I wonder how long will it take to fix that.

Next world more likely according to loftar. He might be able to figure out a way, though.

How hard and time consuming would it be to implement system based on borders? For example as pictured here: https://i.imgur.com/Sjjb0cR.png , I assume there are 4 continents (based on the landmass).

What I propose is to implement borders for the quest rolling system to check:

1. for the heartfire if it's located on one of the continents and if yes then, simply( :))) ) generate the quest from the pool of questgivers inside the borders of that continent.

2. if the hearthfire is located outside of those continents, if it is, then roll quests on the closest one ( or inform the player that sea life doesn't fit nomadic lifestyle(lol, alright I read about those people https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sama-Bajau_peoples , but they are sometimes called "Sea Nomads" so it's an idea for a different credo :D)).

I don't know the internal code, and have no way of knowing how simple or complex of a modification it may be to add in. I'm merely passing on what was stated in the dev stream on the 28th of February.

Forget about Nomad, even normal quests send you across the ocean, especially if you live on a costal area. I had to abandon all but 1 of my current quests because the NPCs I have to greet or laugh at are on another continent or ocean island

I realized after boating for 3 hours to get to a questgiver that I was still not near that the intended method of doing nomad is to abandon literally every travel, visit, or deliver quest. Working as intended clearly.
