Idea - At night/cave Perc is minus 10 but torch counters

Post by bojackson »

So at night or in cave we have - perc, but with a lit torch it evens out, or maybe 80% of perc loss is alleviated so night / cave has some sense of being night / a cave.

Could be more/less than 10 just a number to get started for the idea.
Ohhh that's how I make a sig, cool

Night already exist Lady... this effect works whether you use night vision or not.

I'm not against it m'self
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Cool idea, but

it would just be tedious task and and little effect on the overall game

it also hinders the few players who log in at the times of "game night" and only play during that window time. night does not change as it has set timers (unless a server crash happens).

We actually changed this so that the nigh/day timers are not in perfect lockstep with real life time, meaning that over time night/day in Haven will drift relative a particular time IRL.

I'd like to see some kind of disadvantage for night exploration/walks. Maybe even tripping on run speed :twisted:

Or maybe I'm just angry because I don't use and don't like to use night vision and feel in natural disadvantage since a lot of people use it :P
Or, at least, people that would kill me. Which is what actually makes it a disadvantage :P
