How does this affect people who log in to foreign village claims? Seeing as a->e is the hotkey to leave the town, uh... we have that happen fairly often, but our guys will still hang out around gooncastle until they can get an invite back in. There's one guy right now, at least, who's in that situation.

Suggestion - make the lawspeaker and chieftain able to choose whether people can login to the village claim, perhaps by the same mechanism as players can choose whether to allow kin access to a personal claim. Also, get rid of the hot key for leaving the village, or put a confirmation dialogue on village departures.

Related question - (1) if person a's hearth is in person b's claim, or a village claim, can they log in at the hearth? [I think they should be able to; if person b wants person a gone, they can destroy the hearth.]

(2) If a person logs out in aclaim (village or personal) where they are not trespassing, can they log back in there?

Both of those should not be a problem.

It only affects the "last position" login point, not the hearth fire.

FWIW, you can prevent him from logging back in there if you know exactly where he was -- just build something on that spot, and he can't log back in there.


It might also a good idea to also block the thief's hearth fire if there is one around your area.

Or destroy it.
