Territory Claims

Post by Oblivior »

Temporary Claims for Newbs. How it is made Pull down you pants and do a Weewee or drop a Big Brown Bear next to a tree :lol:

These claims will serve as early protection against animals (Not other players)
Boars and bears will stay away from the area that is territoryd. It should stay 1 or 2 days and have a max size and only 1 area can be claimed.
They can be used when traveller wearness is full but will uyse travel wearness when it's not full.

Why? simple at the start of the game u get koed so many times by boars u lose your shoes get torns HHP starts to drop very fast and at that level there is no way to get it up fast.This way the game wil still be chalanging but a little bit more safe.

Cons? When in the area it should give a buff that decreases charisma (obvious why)

I'm not sure if I'm supposed to just laugh or point my finger and laugh.
The main reason for this thing seems to be keeping away wild animals, and if I'm not mistaken, they don't care one bit about human-produced "weewee" or "Big Brown Bears". However, there is one thing humans can make that particularly scares them. It's called fire. It is somewhat exploitable, so let's say animals try to avoid the 3x3 area around a torch, 5x5 tiles area around a campfire, 9x9 around a bonfire and (totalLP/100,000)x(totalLP100,000) around a hearth fire, unless already chasing a hearthling. That last one can be reduced to any ratio, or require additional fuel to keep this effect up.

This'll save you from animals wandering close to you when you're relatively active, but if you wake up to find a bear rummaging through your stuff, you're screwed.

No, it works out either way.. When you wake up to see a bear rummaging through your stuff, you mark your pants.
