It's a big thing, I'm curious why you decided for it
Private claims seemed too cheap and throwaway for what you were getting, quite simply.
you are a little late though, all the good resources are claimed.
Theres that, but I get it.

Thank you for the resource node change.

dank/10 update

Are all current claims of them still active, though?

This.. doesnt make sense now, almost everything is claimed ;( Couldnt the claims be removed?

Good patch. Maybe over time when some pclaims start to fall down, people will have their fun :)

All's good for me. The only thing I really care about is tending my sheep - which I don't really have yet - so I'll just imagine that I do.

Oh, and please add proper "walk on snow" sound effects? <3 I made a suggestion but Jorb didn't appear to post his usual "Myeah. Maybe." So I was worried :mrgreen:

We considered it, but deep and weird interventions in the game world like that seldom prove to be a good idea in the end. It's not like there don't exist ways around it in-game as it is, either way.

he doesnt want the people who claimed the nodes to lose all their lp they invested. I would be pretty sad to lose the 30k lp investment.
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

Ways that require villages that are now possible to build to everyone who couldn't without brimstone.

What's the soak on unfired pclaims now exactly?
