PVE Claim system idea

Recommended Posts

A claim flag with a claim area just like before.

Claim flags have a forced spacing rule to not overlap. Example: A 200 feet diameter claim with a 50 feet border. The closest enemy flag could be placed 300 feet away. You have 200 feet to build on with a 100 feet of empty area between. Overlap exception if you own both/all flags.

No one can build on a PVE server in any area they have not dropped and maintain a claim flag. All object spam is gone. No boat spikes. Unless they use a claim.

You have a limited number of claim flags. I would try 4 at first, maybe 5. Example: 2 flags together makes one big base. remaining 2 could be two smaller outposts bases.

Replace that flag with something like a stone obelisk maybe 6 feet high. The flag/obelisk requires something not too painful, like 1000 logs a week. Can't preload more then 3 weeks of logs. If it runs dry your claim and everything on it starts a 72 hour until deleted countdown. During that countdown, all doors and lock boxes are unlocked for others to take from. You could be away for 3 weeks and be safe, then you're toast.

A company of 10 or more active players can drop a larger (Company Flag), doing so costs one flag from each member. Maybe 400-500 feet diameter. Max 4-5 large flags. One big base and two smaller ones. Company members can deed personal claims to the company. Deeded flags have company flag rule sets. Company and deeded to company flags/claims require the same type of service as the personal claims and delete if that service stops. Players that have not logged in for 4 weeks are removed from the company. If you drop below 10 active players, company flags start a 7 day delete timer. You have a week to find members.

You would also have a second type of flag. A temporary flag that only lasts for 48 hours. A smaller claim area, maybe 60 feet. This flag would mainly be for traps, short term wipe recovery or a small short term outpost. Limit one active. Could be serviced to keep active for 14 days max. Spacing rule (50 feet) applies.

Drop claims on normal and lawless the same. Same rules apply.

You can delete your claim flag. Deleting a claim starts a 10 minute all objects delete timer for relocating of claim if your not leaving altogether.

Claims can be placed near shore in same depth as ship anchoring. Not in the deep sea.

No decay on active claims.

No tax of any kind.

Anyone can harvest in any claim they can access.

Resources can only be walled off if they are 100% within a claim where they could be walled off.

Again... no building at all outside of a personal or company claim.
