consolidate normal & visitor gates

Postby SnuggleSnail » Sat Sep 10, 2022 12:20 pm

The things I don't like about the normal/visitor system:
1) Safepalis kinda gay NGL for real for real
2) They over complicate things for the nabs, and as a result people get fucked because of it regularly
3) Safepalis are still usable in the exact same way as world 10, it's just locked behind a lot more tediousness with keys (which to be fair has genuinely reduced the amount of safepali scattered around randomly usable by everybody in a faction, but not at all reduced their usefulness in specific places where it rly matters)


This comes from a bit of a place of privilege given that in 99% of situations I'll just be able to outrun whoever is chasing me, so take this with a grain of salt, but TBH I think safepalis are a bit of a death trap for less experienced people anyway. Cannot count the number of retards I've followed into safepalis and killed after they trapped themselves.

The current system seems to not be very intuitive for the average player given how 50% of the people I aggro nearby their base seem to try and run into their visitor gates, get stuck on it then get their cheeks clapped, or get raided when they make Ngates facing the wrong way, or just don't realize what visitor gates are after playing world 10 and leave Ngates open.

Make all gates into visitor gates?

yeah making an airlock was better all you did is build to Palisade Gates open one entered closed it then open the other one then closed it the worst case scenario they would only get one of your keys and it would still be useless to them cuz the other gate is closed

yeah but visitor gates are great for making markets it allows people to buy and sell s*** without being able to steal s*** easily

noobs will learn the hard way you can't enter visitor Gates while you're in combat even with an animal that's why airlocks are still important
