What happens if the claim doesnt cover the whole village, if you step off the claim inside the wall, can you commit crimes again?jorb wrote:It's certainly something we want to work with, yes.RedKGB wrote:Now with this, should we be looking for different forms of seige engines coming to the game soon?
I can add that it becomes a lot easier to think about that matter when it is decoupled entirely from the question of peaceful interactions.

Early world exploit: Put your hearthfire inside a cave, then hold shift to position a claim right in front of a cave. After 8 hours the claim will be unbreakable. Since your hearthfire is inside the cave, you can still get back inside, and leave, but nobody will be able to enter, effectively making you unraidable for the first 3-7 days. Enjoy

Again, nothing has changed if you were raiding "legit". You're basically complaining that a bunch of cheesy 'sploits are no more.ChildhoodObesity wrote:its not a positive change this is v dumb jorb y wud u do this!!!!!!11

If you dig through enemy mine, and go up to the surface to find a brick wall / palisade with open gates, does that count as entering the village as a visitor instead of a raider?

We can't design away stupidity entirely. If you let people in you should, indeed, make sure that your layout has integrity.overtyped wrote:What happens if the claim doesnt cover the whole village, if you step off the claim inside the wall, can you commit crimes again?

...? Yes? If you pass through a claimed gate then you, sir, are a visitor.Chebermech wrote:If you dig through enemy mine, and go up to the surface to find a brick wall / palisade with open gates, does that count as entering the village as a visitor instead of a raider?

Yes, but that being said, you should perhaps hold off on giving master keys to strangers in case we change this mechanic. ^^Kelody wrote:Does that mean stealing a master key is no longer a ticket to plunder?

Re: Game Development: Castles in the Sand
If a master key is stolen, and you stand outside the gate, not on the claim, can you change the lock? 
edit..Also is the mechanic directional? Like if you pass through a reversed gate (normally exiting) does this still function?
