What do you mean that it's "interesting" that the wired wooden wall is the weak point? They are the weak point in ANY design that uses electronics.

Yeah that's not me, I was just wathcing him when he robbed you so i knew where to find the video. Check out his stream though when he robs again, it's really cool.

screw the family. i just put mine right in the front so that someone will kill them sooner rather than later. they WILL die in the end, and i want to be able to make more complex traps, without them having to leave, sooner. also, then you lose the least amount of money when the wife dies.

Sound advice, but it doesn't really help in light of my original post. There is no effective trap a player can construct for ~$1500 which will stop a robber with 2k of tools from killing the wife, and possibly breaking the safe.

I wish Jason would read this thread, because I'd love to hear his thoughts on the matter.

There is a house that can do this. its called a powered pit with a combo lock.

A starter house getting to 9k is pretty impressive, I'd say you're on the right track already.

My starter house this run got to 38k no robberies.

I don't know stuff like that, all i know is that is use this clock up tot he 8 in my starting house and i works fine. i've never used the 16.

#383 Re: Main Forum » Circuits/electronics lab » 2014-03-06 16:52:07

just remove the voltage triggerd switch to the right of the light you dont want. then remove the light and everything in that column and everything to the left of that. make sure to add that last piece of vertical wire again.

Also what do you mean by "breaking ones"?

#384 Re: Main Forum » So this just happened... » 2014-03-06 16:13:46

I guess i'm just a master thief.

#385 Re: Main Forum » Circuits/electronics lab » 2014-03-06 16:12:34

Here is your answer cheese. Also there is no way that has been discovered to make it smaller.

I went up to the top of the list. i found a house with 0/0 worth 38k. This was the layout of the house right when you entered. turns out, that was the entire house. Nothing ever even turned on. So i just robbed this guy for 38k i brought a bunch of wirecutters, water and stuff just in case it was more than it seemed, but it wasn't. This has happened once before to me when a broken house became worth 36k and i beat it with 1 dog meat. Thanks Mysterious benefactor for letting me build my dream house!

I think he wants only the owner of the house to see the kill counts. For one, this eliminates any problem of house elements beign given away, adn also, then it doesnt matter what the name of the pet is.

Well Vegeta, have at me. I robbed the top guy for 11k (Simmons) and rebuilt my house. I think at second right now at 7.8k. You can tell its mine if there is a dog-cat line right at the start. tell me what you think!

#390 Re: Main Forum » [DISABLED] Free community server (with self registration) » 2014-02-28 19:34:25

Maybe I'll make a house again and you can try to rob me.

#392 Re: Main Forum » [DISABLED] Free community server (with self registration) » 2014-02-28 18:44:56

I robbed most of the people on the server and built a sweet house.

#393 Re: Main Forum » Chills » 2014-02-27 23:49:31

What causes chills? I've seen chills on houses that I haven't died in, just left.

#394 Re: Main Forum » Took down my first big score » 2014-02-27 22:52:48

Be on the look out for houses with large numbers of tries and deaths. I don't mean 20, i mean hundreds. This usually means the house is broken. Yesterday a broken house got to the top page and I robbed it for 36K with a single dog meat.

#395 Re: Main Forum » What is the highest bounty of all time? » 2014-02-27 22:48:32

What did Mr. Duncan die to? Also another high bounty was me in my last life, ~20k.

I don't understand this, can you clarify?

The enter confirmation he is talking about is NOT just the house test. There is a little button you can press while robbing or testing that makes you confirm each arrow key press with ENTER in order to not make mistakes. It's pretty useful if you might mess up.

#397 Re: Main Forum » Electronics is too complicated/not in spirit of the game » 2014-02-24 20:23:37

I tried to use some advanced electronics in my house (a clock). It worked really well but they take up way too much space. Now I'm remodeling and it's all going away to make way for basic electronic traps like cats on switches. And my house is just as deadly! Even more so! This may not be the game for you, but if yo are persistent, you make make plenty of great traps with little or no knowledge of advanced electronics.

Dang it! I just spent and hour or more building a 22k house, got up to take a fat dump, and then came back. It had kicked me for inactivity and I lost it all!

Is there a way to import a castle draft directly to your house so it auto builds?

If you are building a treehouse in your backyard and you fell from the tree and died, would you just be like "Well shit. I guess I'll just come back to life and try again", or would you be like ".." oh wait you're dead.
