    Ideas for the Wipe Empty Ideas for the Wipe

    Post by Rykleos 2011-03-31, 08:10

    With a server wipe possibly on the horizon, you're wondering if you're beloved crap will come in tail. Thats where this idea comes in.

    There are two possible ideas:

    Idea 1:

    Basically, you pay a fee to have your beloved work uploaded to a schematic for an additional fee, similar to a zoning fee. Perhaps based on size or a standard fee of 3000 Gil. Towns that want to be moved could pay somewhere in the region of 5-7k gil to move their town to the new city. This would urge people to move to the cities to keep their stuff.

    Idea 2:

    Orcworm and the other mods compile a list of the five major cities on the current server. Those cities are to become the primary focus of the new server's city system and get primary focus.

    The list of cities in order of importance:

    Kumatora
    Grintendo's City
    Stockade
    FrostSide
    Gamem's City


    These cities are based off no bias and are calculated with the number of residents/popularity the city has.



    Update:


    Perhaps if no things are moved, Orc could restrict the amount of cities and lower zoning costs. At the onset of a wipe, everyone only has 100 Gil. Nobody will be able to buy zoning and griefing will run rampant.

    Can this get locked before it becomes a complete spam-fest like the other thread?

    If it pertains to the server reset, preferably no. Did you not see the complete mess of a thread the original map reset thread became?

    Idea 1: Gil would get wiped/Economy changed, so where do you expect people to get the money from?
    Idea 2: As long as it is based of and not just a straight copy: sure why not.

    Current zoning rights will carry over regardless. If you bought a zone ingame from an admin (not going to fuck around with plots)/got a free one as a donation perk you will still have the right to those zones on a new map.

    If it gets reset, and it will, the money will get reset too.

    Transferring things over for gil, will not happen. Unless Orc otherwise says so.

    Come on, think about it, please.

    Also to put it as plainly as possible: we do not give a fuck about what you people want. All our actions, past, present and future, are to make the server as good as possible. If this means losing a few players because they could not accept that you have to break an egg to make an omelet... so be it.

    I don't care for lapis or more stuff just so people can false their way through stats and achievements. Wolves will still SPAWN.

    I have a massive thing too, just asking for ideas on how to stop everyone building near spawn IF it get's carried over. I mean we'll have to delete it and stuff.

    We're not carrying ANYTHING over, for God's sake, just rebuild your stuff. We should probably leave an area of forest around spawn, where you're unable to build, and new players can get wood and saplings from there.

    I say that orc just puts up the map on the fourms with a download link, just to preserve the legacy.

    This seems to be the ideal solution

    Um orc will most likely upload a copy of the map. (Like music_man suggested). This is what he did with the last reset and with the alpha->beta temp map etc. So your 'creations' can be seen there in singleplayer. If he does you may want to map edit out irrelevant chunks to reduce map size etc.
