Yeah, vanilla redstone security can be quite thorough. Other redstone triggers actually work better because all good thieves already know to check the walls for secret doors and may overlook a simple “decorative” button or redstone ore under a carpet. Just using a redstone door is lame though. People need to use redstone traps more often (again, thieves usually don’t expect it!) and the rules should be worded in such a way as to encourage more intricate forms of security instead of lame, unoriginal key-doors.

I just got Kloning. ;-; Please don't shelve it! It's not just a way to cheaply get out of being killed irp. It can let humans bypass their otherwise early deaths, and that's the primary reason I've gotten it. I'd be OK if we changed the lore to make it a bit more costly to die, however. Maybe double the herbs to make the clones? If you die you lose memory of how you died, like monk revival, but you could still know you died somehow and recognize your body and be able to ask others for information about how you died. Or maybe you remember how you died, but you get an intense fear for 2 ooc months of whoever caused you to die, resulting in you not messing around with the people who killed you and providing an incentive to kill your opponents. I think it would be really fun if whenever you died and your soul enters a new Klone, your new body looks nothing like your old body and you get a new personality, like Dr. Who. You keep your memories and main goals and relationships, but you could go from being a kind elderly woman who bakes cupcakes to being an edgy constantly angry goth girl. It will feel like you as a person are dying, and the only thing that remains are the core goals in your life. ----------------------- IDK maybe we can ask Jentos how he feels about this, but after angho killed my char several months ago, I shelved her for a month or two and almost quit playing LOTC. I monk revived, and have since refused to interact with Azdrazi, to the point of not even making cold potions when asked irply because I felt it would be unfair to the Azdrazi who should get a benefit from killing an enemy alchemist. Sure it's not ideal and it "makes death feel cheap". But TBH, I have died a ton and still freak out every time. "My character is a joke and I am oocly a moron and nobody will ever want to rp with me again because all of my rp will be a joke . . . " (I stopped taking my meds ok?) All this to say, I am trying to take death seriously. ----------------------- Finally, monk revival is way worse than cloning. Ppl die and monk revive and then die again and monk revive . . . And people will continue doing so after you've shelved cloning. I recall introducing my brother to the server. He played a mass murderer (in his first week on the server, he snuck into the Orenian palace and killed children). He popularized shooting random people with a crossbow from rooftops. This guy died like every other day, and just monk revived and walked the streets happily oblivious to the fact he was executed. TBF he didn't take his character too seriously and it was more dark humor, but still, these kinds of antics affect the server more than cloning.

The two solutions I am more in favor of are either simply 1. Lockpick 2. You can make hidden sign doors, but they cannot use a key (any right click on the block will open it) The reasoning for the second is it still allows you to have your hidden entrance but eliminates the "metagaming" that is always thrown when someone gets the key right. You can still put your 3 iron doors behind the pistons to make it hard to break in so the redstone itself really should just be for aesthetics rather than a barrier imo.

Even worse than the doors that have craftbook key locks are hopper locks that can be made in vanilla minecraft. With the ability to name and add descriptions to items, you could make a door that requires throwing an exact item into a hopper (potentially even hidden under a block) to open. Due to how minecraft does NBT tags, you cannot recreate these items and the door cannot be brute forced. Oftentimes these keys are permanently soul bound in someone's inventory until they're thrown into the hopper (and promptly re-soulbound as soon as the door is closed). I believe these style of doors should be banned all together.

A tiny half-elven woman had only just stopped wearing black, she proceeded to fish out the dress and wear it once again. Agnes pressed her hand to her chest over her rosary and wept. The girl wept for the woman she had loved, and she wept knowing she would never see her again. Agnes wept for her mother, who would no doubt be lost without her diety, and she wept for the world.

Valid take - it's a fundamentally different view on accessibility so I don't think there's much point arguing about it. What I will say, though, is that all other locking mechanisms don't seem to subscribe to that view - by virtue of the fact that all locks have checks and balances, I think there's a rare consistency in what the rules are trying to achieve, and Redstone Doors are an outlier in that regard.

Call me anti-RP, but I don't particularly understand the point of making every location accessible - every fortress so indefensible, every group so susceptible to attack and thievery. This may be a critique of a matter far more serious than redstone doors, but I believe that an egregious imbalance already exists where there is no entry barrier to committing villainy of any sort: any gathering of aspiring troublemakers can just create a dozen unkillable, throwaway personas and enjoy complete advantage of initiative in choosing where, when, or how they strike at their targets, with no obligation to justify their association and their goals in-character, no obligation to prove their foreknowledge of the ideal circumstances of their heist or assault (Can they prove their RP knowledge of guard unavailability at certain hours, or knowledge of their desired targeted items' locations?) , and no obligation to render themselves available for investigation and retaliation afterwards, contrary to the good-faith policies of RP give-and-take LotC espouses. Potential defenders enjoy no such boons: they must rally in certain ways, in certain locations, under certain time limits, and constantly justify their own involvement. My (I do note) subjective experience as someone who's done "villainy" is that I've never quite been interested in or able to justify to myself a particular need to breach a secret location or to steal anyone's item for any reason other than thinly-veiled OOC desire for humiliation; thus, I've never done it. Risking going completely off-topic, but I am curious about other people's experiences and explanations as to why unrestrained heists and absolute entry availability, given the aforementioned lack of RP restrictions, are essential for an RP story. That being said, I have never created an LotC redstone door myself, and aside from this debate, I ultimately have no stake in how its mechanics are to be handled by the rules in the future.

•─────────────────────•❀•─────────────────────• After the success of the masquerade hosted by Louis-Caspian and Isabeau-Karine Dieuxmont de Rosius, it is with great pleasure the House Dieuxmont de Rosius announces the HUNT OF LOUISANNE. Unlike a true hunt, however, the two siblings will be hunting humans. Indeed, it is not a hunt, but rather, a game of hide-and-go-seek. The two siblings, Louis-Caspian and Isabeau-Karine, as well as any other mainline Rosius, will be the seekers, while attendees will be hiders. The event will be hosted in the city of LOUISANNE, which surrounds the Manoir de Rosius. The winning hider will receive a sum of 50 mina for their winning prize. We are delighted to host this game.
