Village Bullettin Board

Post by Haba »

This one has been recommended and requested for a million times, but just as a reminder:

It would be a real boon to have a in-game form of communication for villagers that is easy to access. Some sort of village bulletin board for quick updates, job tasks etc.

How do you imagine this working? Do you want an actual object in game, or...?

An ingame board, that lets you stack 'temporary' runestone messages on it as a sort of forum for villages would be nice. I could really use posts like 'Siv get your lazy ass out there and get some clay!' ect.

Virtual one would actually be useful. Physical object is for larping, or for people who are not in an actual village.

A button to read through the messages, highlighted if there are new ones.

If you want something simple to implement it could just be a sign you build on a village claim, right click opens a container which you can fill with messages written on parchment. Filling it with paper modifies the image in a "bulletin board" fashion.

Big sign where you get an in game UI where you can write as well as delete messages that anyone can read.

Not temp runestones. Parchments - that can be dropped whenever one feels like it.

Or we could have a "slate" board and use chalk or we could have wood and charcole.

An action from a lawspeaker or "cheiften" to wipe items off it.
