This one is a miss for me dog

Lets maybe NOT lean into factions mechanics. As I've said before, RP is fluid and characters intentions can change. I should not have to modreq over that. I get why this has been added but I still feel its unnecessary and a step in the wrong direction

This is really amazing! Thank you so much for your hardwork!!

My suggestion/request is actually an old feature of Nexus. You used to be able to craft tent kits and "campfire" kits, which when placed with enough space would place said structure. The tents used to have chests in them, which usually didn't work too well, so the kits weren't super popular as they tended to eat up items, but I remember using them quite frequently. You could right click a certain block to pack it up again, and they could be placed anywhere, regardless of whether you had region perms, which meant you could camp in out in the wilderness. (Or in my case, squat in the local public park). There was also a massive tent camp after the paste of Johannesburg for the Haense people before they had their land with (Camp Crow!) I really feel like this would help bring some realism into the world of rp and help facilitate rp outside of cities. Events, camping trips, wanderers and vagabonds, etc could all benefit from tents. Oh, and they came in different colors!

NO FREEBUILD, but also staff should code a plugin and build resource pits and do extra work to "encourage new nations" by enforcing activity checks. Got it.

All of that stuff is already coded and automated, its just not implemented or isn't available for non-staff players. And whats your solution in regards to new nations? Let them exist as empty metropolises or discourage them entirely?? There IS a middle ground where new settlements should have to meet a criteria, there is a system now that SHOULD function, but is largely unenforced

I think the current map is too big

 

I would agree but with the additional remark that half of it is unusable land. Last map had it even worse with insane mountains and terrain that wasn't viable for settlements or cities. I guess my issue really is just nations owning a bunch of land that they dont even use and forcing new settlements to squeeze into the last few good spots... which then get abandoned and "ruined" making those spots utterly useless

More space

More Space

MORE SPACE

yeah, you heard me right. we need bigger maps. the map is so overrun and clogged up with pointless expansionism that nations cant even get room to breathe, much less new settlements

ALTERNATIVELY: tiles need to be way more expensive, and have to meet minimum activity requirements.

less restrictions on fast travels, but not a fast travel to every shitty village. 

encouragement of new nations, ALONG WITH actual enforcement of activity checks. Toughen up on activity checks in general. Not making it? You lose your settlement/nation/tile. End of story

And don't just leave abandoned settlements. Only a few abandoned places should be turned into ruins, not every single failed project. At the end of the day, ruins most often serve no purpose than a spot to explore for the random passerby. If some noob settlement builds a big ass city and loses it, delete that shit. Make space for others. 

NO FREEBUILD. Bring back paid LC and fly. Idk why those were ever removed. Bring back resource pits while we're at it and get rid of the last, shitty remnants of Vortex. 

Leave auction houses but make it so that they are not global. Give people the ability to sell without having to own a shop/stall but make it so you have to travel more for unique goods.

Sister Gabrielle packed a small bag, having very few possessions to her name these days. She recounted a time in her youth when she walked the streets of San Luciano in elegant gowns, arm in arm with her friends and family. They were times long past now, mere memories in the back of her mind. An old ribbon lingered in her hand, an item she'd held onto since her youth. She let it slip through her fingers, and it fluttered to the floor to be left there. She let out a small breath, mumbling to herself. "So this is God's will for my people, and for me. So be it."

Sister Gabrielle sat in her small chamber above the chapel of Myrine, thumb running over the surface of a worn, silver cross. She silently recalled her youth, much of which had been spent guiding her little brother around. Silent tears dripped down her cheeks, and she murmured quietly in the dark to herself.

"Until we see each other again, dear brother."

Accepted.

Accepted.

Waking dreams, 60 years worth of memories, a life lived. Mistakes, so many mistakes. There were no more tears now, though. It was some kindness bestowed upon her by the universe that she did not, and likely never would know of her dear friend's betrayal. She had been offered up as a sacrifice without even knowing it, and some gentler being kept her in the dark as a kindness. Things had really gone to shit since she laid down to bed, but that was beyond her now. She slipped through waves of memories, tossed about on the stormy sea that was her addled mind. So many years of torment and death. Was she truly evil? Or was she a product of circumstance? Perhaps it didn't matter now, perhaps it never would.
