Suggested - Private Meeting Room

Post by ikms »

Hi TMW Team,

I would like to see a place in TMW where private meetings / events can be held.
My Starting suggestion is:

A "Character" enters a reception area and buys a set of keys from an NPC (1 master key, and 2+ room keys) that secure the room for a set period of time.
A "Character" can give the keys out to anyone else in this reception area.
Any "Character" wishing to leave the reception area, may request so from the NPC, who also recovers any unused keys.
Any "Character" wishing to enter the meeting / event can use the key given too them by the initiating Character, to open the door and go in, and has their key recovered.

The room would remain locked until such time as the master key is handed back to the NPC, the Character who initiated the meeting/event leaves the game, or after the time run out, whichever comes first. If the time runs out a monster of incredible power but giving no XP is spawned inside the room and kills anyone inside. (thus effectively clearing the room). Upon asking the NPC for the keys, any Monsters in the room are removed.

Regards
ikms

Why not just to go somewhere far away on some deserted place and talk????

This is too complicated.

You should leave the evaluation of the feasibility to the content developers.
  • former Manasource Programmer
  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

We've worked out all of the details already.

I quite like this idea, but having an epic monster seems a bit excessive - maybe simple teleportation when the time has elapsed?

Yes. That is preferred and is how we will do it if we implement the system.
