Construction and Theft Rules

[Fireheart 2777]

Construction and Theft

 

These rules apply to the ownership and theft of land, builds, and items.

 

Voxel, Worldedit, or any other GM assistance will not be permitted for assistance in construction in any situation. GMs will only use these tools for players to remove landscars, or to help clear old structures. Note that if a GM is used to clear the structure, no resources will be refunded.

 

Owners of regions will not be changed unless authorized by another owner of that region, or a parent of it.

 

Chests and doors within a region may only be unlocked by request of a region owner.

 

Unlocked chests may be stolen from at will. Item Frames may only be taken from by players on the region they are in.

 

Players may attempt to get past locks via the roll system. In order to do this, a GM is required to be present for the rolls. Requirements and rules are as follows:

 

Lockpicks may be purchased by a shop, and if used, will be taken from the player (1 pick per roll) in exchange for more favorable chances.

 

Door rolls are as follows:

Wood (Trap)doors - 17+ without a pick, 10+ with.

Iron (Trap)doors - 19+ without a pick, 15+ with.

Locked Signs (Gates, Lifts, etc) - 17+ without a pick, 10+ with.

 

Chests may only be picked with a specific, named item as the target. If you're looking for the 'Blue sword of ice', tell the overseeing GM before rolling. Generic items are not able to be stolen this way.

 

Donation chests and Shop Chests may not be stolen from.

 

Chests - 17+ without a lockpick, 15+ with. A roll of 5 or below without a pick will result in the lock being too damaged to open.

 

Only 3 members of a given party may attempt to lockpick, and each of them have 3 attempts per lock, and may attempt to pick up to three locks each.

 

You may not break blocks to get past LWC locks.

 

A lock is only valid with an LWC protection on it. If the door or chest is not mechanically locked, it is not locked in roleplay.

 

Arson or other means of property destruction are not allowed except during warclaims or with the plot owner's OOC permission.

 

Built structures must adhere to the roleplay setting. Floating or unsupported houses, underground farms are disallowed. Note that, when gathering resources, you may not leave floating leaves or strip-mine in the main world. Strip mining is permitted in the mineworld, and only in the mineworld.

 

Using another player's build without their permission is not allowed.  Any large build copied from any source on or off LoTC mediums require the creator's permission. Smaller builds like individual houses do not have this requirement.

 

If a nation leader leaves his or her position, they may take only 10% of the nation's materials with them. This must be completely RPed with oversight of one or more GMs. If the leader is PKed or otherwise abandons the character, nothing may be taken.

 

Due to bugs and other small issues, it may sometimes be possible to obtain disallowed items from legitimate sources. If you obtain one of the following items from any source, please make a modreq detailing the item and how you got it. The use of these items is disallowed in any capacity.
