chests and crafting

i think that there should be chests and owner chests normal chests is basically a inventory in your house and owner chests are chests but only you can open them. for crafting, im thinking stuff like wild trees which randomly spawn in the wilderness. which you can use to make new stuff, but you choose that part!

Mute button for the chat.

Nearly every chat (gaming or otherwise) has one and it's only natural that this games chat should have one too, I'm not just bringing this suggestion up for the sake of having it, i do actually want to quit seeing some peoples text.

citizens only door

a (blue handled?) door that can only be properly used by a town owner. (more than likely going to cost plat...) this door can only be placed in a town you own and no where else. the door can only be used by citizens of the town and the town mayor him/her self. but also cannot be picked by anyone else other than the mayor. this would be useful for towns that don't want randomly wandering people in their towns. but can still have easy access for its citizens.

Prevent Hostile Takeover (Amended). Important To ALL Players, Essential To Non-Payers.

Essentially my previous ideas to prevent hostile takeover were slightly flawed but also relatively difficult to accomplish. So myself and some other players have discussed and come out with a new idea for the same issue.

Essentially my issue is this. As it stands now any blocks left out in the wilderness are at risk as a player who sets a town stone or expands over them may immediately take them. To me this is not acceptable.

With the majority of the game still open to settle there is utterly no excuse why someone should need to annex another players progress.

It should be inherent that if you place blocks they are in fact your blocks and should not be up for grabs simply because another player bought a $5 town stone. This is a slap in the face to loyal players who may not be able to purchase town stones or the unreasonable expansion price needed to ensure the safety of their structures

Not only do some players blatantly not have money to purchase town stones it also remains that certain structures are beyond the reach of being ultimately protected by a town stone. Roads specifically are in danger of being taken over and rerouted despite them being placed for an exact reason by an exact player. Furthermore with the last town expansion costing effectively $500 there is a soft limit to how much a player can really protect meaning there really is only so much progress a player can make.

As it stands now most players and their structures are at risk and some players have already lost pieces of their progress because of hostile takeover.

Here come the suggestions:

1) existing blocks are owned by the player who placed them regardless of a new town stone or expansion of existing town stone

2) players must ACCEPT citizenship

3) platinum items should not be able to be removed by anyone but the owner

By this suggestion players progress cannot be erased simply because somebody wanted to claim their blocks as their own with a $5 town stone. Players are able to expand beyond town limits and players who cannot pay for a town stone still have their structures saved

Some may argue this would defeat the purpose of the town stone. However, town stones would still allow mayors to sanction who may build WITHIN the town giving them ultimate control over the territory their town inhabits currently.

However, as pointed out this leaves on flaw. How to deal with blocks placed in the way of expansion or directly outside of towns specifically to troll or get in the way. Or, newer structures which impede the expansion or risk being swallowed by a town leaving essentially an island of area the mayor has no control over.

1) If a player should build in the approximate expandable area of the town they must understand that the pre-existing town has priority over the territory should they expand and the player may be requested to remove their structures. Also, should a town consume their structure (if the town pre-dates the structure they've built) the player would understand that they cannot build once the town overpasses them only remove their own blocks.

2) there needs to be a petition process to get blocks removed that are either hindering active expansion or that have been left unattended or unused for a reasonable amount of time. This would include blocks placed to troll or irritate other players. If the block removal request is accepted than the blocks are returned to the initial owner. This would also help aid in cleaning up abandoned structures that no longer active players may have left around.

3) Finally, structures within town limits are PERMANENTLY safeguarded, this would be the other benefit to a town stone. No matter how long a player is inactive the town may not be altered without express permission.

By this suggestion players who build around towns which predate their structure ultimately do not have priority since they have built within the hypothetical expansion area of a town. Also, blocks which are impeding active players as well as active progression may be removed if they are not currently being used.

I will use a personal example of my town. As it stands I built my town far away from any existing structures and built my own road off an existing road. Should someone decide to come after and place a town stone on this road they are given immediate ownership of my blocks as well as the ability to reroute the road away from my town. This would essentially A) leave my town permanently cut off or B) force me to reroute a pre-existing road that was build specifically for my own town. Furthermore as it stands it is a danger to even put a teleporter in my town as it allows players to take over area that they otherwise would have barely had access to had I not placed my teleporter.

What I would like to see is that if a player were to build a town along my road my road would remain intact and I would have the opportunity to tell that mayor that the road will remain there as it is my only access point to my town (other than the teleporter i've temporarily removed). This newer mayor would have to accept that there is a pre-existing structure and either build around it or decide to place their stone elsewhere.

Finally the last issue becomes the border expansion issue.

As it stands if a town stone is built too close to another it essentially blocks expansion in that direction. However, this means if too many staggered towns are placed close to another it will ultimately result in either an inability to expand or the only expansion ability to be in a scewed or absolutely unorganized direction. This also means that the town stone would essentially migrate indirectly to one side of the town greatly inconveniencing residents who may live on the opposite end of town.

The suggestions:

1) a town stone simply cannot be placed within the probable expansion area of another. this would also ensure that there will always be wilderness and area to farm cats as not every town may be fully expanded

2) if a town stone is attempted to be set within the expandable area of another town the pre-existing mayor must give permission to the newer mayor to place the town stone in that area

As a last word I would request that all players also be required to have an email account on file for account creation. This would mean that players are held (more) responsible for misbehavior. This would also mean that players who's blocks are at risk of being petitioned to move will get an email notifying them of the essential complaint against their blocks. They would have a chance to offer a rebuttal to the petition since their blocks are pre-existing.

I feel this entire suggestion is the only fair way to balance the game. Players who pay are given benefits for doing so but also means they may not simply run over non-paying players who have made progress in the game. It is a middle solution granting power to mayors but also ensuring the progress of players who have not or are unable to the exponential fee of town-ownership. This suggestion also ensures a good infrastructure for the game as roads may not be altered but only expanded on so every town has the opportunity to be connected.

Essentially as it stands veteran players are being punished for making progress first and incoming players are given the ultimate opportunity to wipe away that progress.

While the petition suggestion will require time to go through the petitions it is quite frankly the only way to be fair to ALL players.

Thank you all for considering this suggestion.

Essentially my previous ideas to prevent hostile takeover were slightly flawed but also relatively difficult to accomplish. So myself and some other players have discussed and come out with a new idea for the same issue.

Essentially my issue is this. As it stands now any blocks left out in the wilderness are at risk as a player who sets a town stone or expands over them may immediately take them. To me this is not acceptable.

With the majority of the game still open to settle there is utterly no excuse why someone should need to annex another players…

The new inventory-return system prevents players from block stealing by returning the items to your inventory.
Simple solution for finding back your house

This is how it works: Every player gets a special block. This block is untradable and is only obtainable once. Players put this block inside their house and when they want to get back to their house they type the command /home and they will be teleported to that block. (/home is already used to respawn but you know what i mean) It kinda acts like a teleport except you only need 1 block and you can teleport to it where-ever you are.

This block can be obtained by completing a certain quest from Draco (or any other introduction quest that will be added in the future)

Why should sim9 add this to the game?
- It makes it easier for new players to find back their house, castle or whatever they build so they wont get frustrated and leave the game.
- It's impossible to abuse this since you can't put blocks on other player's buildings.

Feel free to give feedback,

Coffee = HP/Player Shops

Well, since it seems to be a community driven game...and I've seen some people build "Coffee Shops" maybe Coffee could be our "potions", and add player vendors that sell Coffee just to add more "reason" to have "shops" other than just to look at em.

add more levels of restriction for citizens of towns.

I've been suggesting this for a while. However, now that Porping's base has been ransacked I feel like the issue has come to light. This isn't the first person to lose things in their city because there aren't restrictions on citizens from the towns. Heres my idea.

1st class citizen: No restrictions on building or removing blocks
2nd class citizen: No restrictions when mayor is in the town
3rd class citizen: Can only add blocks on empty spots, no adding blocks above existing ones (z axis). Can only remove blocks owned by themselves.

Also there could possibly be restrictions on the size of buildings allowed to be built on different citizen levels. I feel it's important that the mayors of the towns have complete control over whom and to what extent and area people can build within their towns other than just a yes or no based on citizenship.

Make a "Beginner Builder's Hall of Knowledge!"

This isn't necessarily a idea so much as a request for land and permission to build by the spawn. When new players come in they are going to have questions, and if they are by themselves with no one there to guide them, they might get discouraged and leave. I know part of the fun is figuring it out yourself but still, it is helpful to have SOMETHING IN-GAME (I know you made a FAQ) for beginner's to fall back on. So, Robby Z, I wish to build such a repository of knowledge in the vicinity of the spawn point. (Maybe the grass patch to the left.) I would ask you online but I know how busy you are. Please let me know if it is 'Go"----"No-Go" Thank you--Nibrudly

make a PvP arena with bleachers around so people can watch

i like PvP but not when i am building. i go out in the wilderness, but no one is ever out there willing to fight. so all i am asking is a little room in the main town for a arena so i can fight people, and so people can watch other people to fight. it is 2 coins to enter the fight and 1 coin to watch for as long as you want. the winner would get all the coins from the fighter and we would raffle the coins for the people watching, and you can also put your name in multiple times for the raffle.

Claiming propety.

Since you said something about building a bed in someones house, i hae come up with an idea: claiming plots. You should be able to type /plot claim (# x #). For example, you want to claim a little area. You can type /plot claim 16 x 16, to claim a radius of 16 lenght and 16 width.

Player made quests

In keeping with the sandbox feel of the game, include player made quests.

In the beginning it could be as easy as making chests where you can deposit money that can be picked up by anyone, and we can make signs with clues on where they are.

Further down the road it would be awesome to see more tools for this, like putting bounties on players and whatnot. Since the penalty for dying is so low (just respawning in Origin) there is a lot of fun to be had with this!

Add Lawyer Cat as an "item" in the Shop. They drop 1g so just make them cost 1g. Specifically used for PvP / spawning them around enemy bases. Make them so you can't spawn them inside a town, rather in the wilderness (around the town).

{Kind of like a pet to the owner, except it doesn't follow you, maybe even gives +5g if it kills a player?}

Beds as waypoints

I think that it would be wonderful if there was some way to warp back to the last bed you've slept in. (Once that's implemented, of course.) For example, in the menu there could be a "Home" button that warps you to the last bed you've slept in, so that I don't have to travel across Lawyer-cat infested territory whenever I want to get to my house from spawn.
