Doorbell

[Zirikana]

I remember seeing a thread about something like a doorbell. Search is coming up empty, so call this a second-order bump.

The idea is to build some kind of object outside your village palisade that could be interacted with by anyone, and would display an announcement to all people standing within the village claim, so that random travelers who just want to make a minor trade, or say hello, or open up their caravan, can find out if anyone is home.

Details would have to be figured out in order to make this work properly... How to display a message to a select group of hearthlings based on location? How to allow to strangers interaction with an object that is still on the village claim? Maybe it's not as difficult as I think, but still, it would be fun to have

Maybe have each "doorbell" display a specific, customizable message to the village?

I like it, why not just play a sound to everyone within the village claim whenever someone rings the bell, the bell would of course need a cooldown to prevent spamming.

Ring the doorbell and run.

Fun.

Then us who plays without sound wouldn't be able to hear it..
