Wanted poster

[brave radish]

makes non-aligned people who see that post become hostile to the one in the photo, seeking for their reward. To use it, you first target the person with a "blank wanted poster", then it become a "<character>'s wanted poster" that you can put in walls

the first problem i see with this: couldn't you abuse this? not to mention what happens after they kill or knockout the wanted target, couldn't I just get a poster (or several) and lure all the targets i wanted out of their building and let the non-aligned NPC's neutralize them for me?

not to mention other things, like:

• do you choose the amount of money that is the reward?
• what happens if they just knock out the target? do they somehow take it to you?
• what if you put down a poster, and the target was already dead? does the poster automatically go away?
• what if you chose a person, but since the permanent NPC's have a life, job and routine, they moved? then the place you put the poster wouldn't be helpful unless they came back there?
• i assume they dont despawn until the deed is done.

just a few questions, all relatively basic to think of, more details in this post would've been nice. but there's a lot of time to add those details.

I also have an extra question, the cops should quickly find out that someone is illegally hanging wanted posters, take 'em off and probably pursue you, don't you think?

[lofty quartz]

There’s a chance you didn’t see either of these bc we didn’t respond. See them now?

[dapper crystal]

the idea in and of itself is really cool... It's just kind of bad? I mean, I'd love to put out wanted posters and use them, it'd be super cool. but just all these make it kind of like a bad idea.

[dapper crystal]

to answer this, maybe you get the cop trait, (I forgor it's name) or bribe a cop, you could post these without them getting ripped down

[lofty quartz]

They haven’t responded to anyone.

So

For me at least it’s not a great sign.

It’s an interesting idea, and I’ve had my own suggestion for bounties. But this seems really exploitable without more details.

[brave radish]

its just something like the walkie talkie, but to attract most npcs instead of just cops. There is no bounty nor anything else, its not that deep. Just destroy someone's life with a shallow lie

[brave radish]

i don't use discord that often

[brave radish]

yes thats a good point. Should trigger the same command as when someone destroy property

[brave radish]

like with vandalism. I think it should be treated exactly as vandalism, code-wise

[brave radish]

only people who see it would get hostile

[vague stag]

but does it work in which classes? thief? cannibals?

[brave radish]

any. Its streets of rogue, we just tell some lies about someone and people will kill them

[brave radish]

how is that different from, say, walkie talkie? There are plenty of items that easily kills people, you guys are overthinking something simple

we have cyanide pills that can kill everybody in a building in a single use

[lofty quartz]

what's the context of this

been a minute

more than 16 days

[brave radish]

you said its exploitable

but it would not even be the strongest item if put in the first game

there are better items for every advantage this one offers

there are ones that has more granted death, that generates more chaos, that are safer, that are cleaner, etc

its not exploitable, its just how the game works

[lofty quartz]

i think it's exploitable, you dont. we disagree, and that's fine. it's not going to be my decision to put it in, it'd be Matt's. so even though i disagree and am the only one out of 10 who agreed, i couldnt care less. it's not up to me in the end.

have a good day/night dude. glad you are passionate about your idea though.
