The Castle Doctrine Forums

my house is now 36 hours since i finished it. i have logged in to look at tapes, and to buy paintings a few times.

if this is babysitting, i need to get onto that career path.

noo, jeff williams!

i think i suggested something like that a long time ago, pre-set 'kits' you could buy with one click. but it isn't tooooooo bad buying them manually. *shrug*

i like the house with going on 2000 break-ins.

with the new, very strict limits on what is actually visible, the power supplies/lights are hidden anyway. you can tell there isn't a wall there, but you can't tell what is actually there without directly viewing the tile.

so the key to victory would be spend to $2000 and never log in again. sounds like a plan

it is so easy to have wired walls that don't go to any source of power, i don't understand the need..

can you draw out a castledraft example showing a few ways this would be useful? i am really struggling

killed myself with a loose cat many times while testing something

i have thought about this a lot.. but more space just makes your house super-powerful. and just isn't fair.

oh although the other did i have an idea.. if you purchase another level of house.. it just kind of acts as a second house, independent from any other level.

so, say next to the doorstep (just below, where the exterior wall currently lives) you could go upstairs/downstairs and get to choose which level you want to attempt. each one having their own vault, their own place for the family to be hiding. so yeah, just a second house really. doesn't really add any unfair advantage as far as i can see, either!

edit: wow i am tired. each floor would have it's own vault, but the cash would all be inside whichever level the player chose to attempt. no splitting between levels.

no family means no exit path required.

a lot of people seem to be trading insurance (partner holding 50% of cash) for security.

this was my initial concern with clocks when they first popped up. especially as it was not too long after the whole 'if something is going to kill you, you should have seen it' change that animals underwent.

i'm still on the fence. they allow for a lot of fun things, but they definitely make me paranoid enough to cut a whole row of grids with no animals in sight. i DEFINITELY prefer meeting a row of grids that is already lit.

makes it very easy to stick the map into a database for testing/whatever on your own server
