It seems like what most people want is a easy way of identifying who spawns to them as well as being able to control if they spawn to them again. I suggest forced usernames and limited username availability (no 2 can be the same) would be great if everyone spawns with that as their first name. Then a banned list for who you don’t want birthing to you can be made with those users.
Mind you I would still like an in-game currency of some sort to track progress.
I didn’t suggest this before because I wasn’t certain what direction the game could be allowed to go but if were going to keep jumping through hoops with cursing and the fp system it might be simpler.
I’d be fine with it if the username appeared in the family tree section in parenthesis near the last player you tapped to check out. It dosnt have to appear immediately in game for me I guess if its not possible to get it in there.
I like that. That way players with know how could check who theyre playing with while new players and people who prefer not knowing who they are playing with can be blissfully ignorant.
If you want to go back as before, I think it is a good idea to save FP with a different server. It takes time, but I believe you can do it if you love the city. Isn’t that all about it?
People on eu2 servers may find it better to use friend servers or solo servers.
Also, I do not like server reset every week because I liked to make a bell tower.
I think there was a bit of a misunder standing when it came to the mechanics. I think chris was trying to say that in order to rekindle (previously eve spawning) you would have to spend Family points. Family points can be earned in any family on any server so you would have to play with other players ( not in your own town) in order to build up fp to rekindle your solo family.
The only problem with that system from what i saw was that your children could rekindle your family after dying out which would cause problems for solo play.
(Which is why i suggested for babys who die before a certain age to not be able to rekindle.)
Here is the link to the official you are hope discord. Cristoffer ocasionally posts some extra information there that doesnt always make its way to the forums.
Have you thinked that 3 or 4 people to destory your town in midnight? You don’t know who they are, and they can destory every town. Griefers often choose a few people online time to cut down trees, kill sheep and murder, they are not stupid men!
The system that chrisstoffer is proposing will reduce the like liness of griefers spawning into a players village as that they would have to be burried to be reborn.
Also since he also expressed a desire to restructure the curent servers to be accessible to every player regardless of language the problem of low population servers will be mostly resolved.
Using points to rekindle your eve town will be easier for solo players since they will be the only player alive in their town when the family dies and the children would have had to have been burried in order to rekindle the town.
Players who are not solo players will have an easier time getting born into a family since they could only be born to a solo player once because they automatically get lineage baned if they dont get burried.
