Hello friends!
We've received a pretty decent amount of responses to our Offline Raid Protection poll which is currently in favour 17-5. While many think that the ability to be protected while offline but be able to raid while online is exciting, others have expressed some concerns over it. We've tested the mod and it does work properly now, but it is quite a change to FUNKARK if it were to go through. No matter what we do, if any change in structure/rules turns out for the worse, we can always wipe again and revert or try something else.
If we were to do the Offline Base Protection mod, we could implement other changes that could potentially make it a bit more viable for our community. Some of the things we're considering are: 1. Having a safe period for new tribes where they could have some time to build before being open for attack. 2. Having an identified storage bin of some sort where you could keep a limited amount of your most valuable items safe from raiding.
Another option if we weren't to go with ORP would be something similar to what we have now, but with times each week where the entire island would be up for raiding. The time would be chosen and written on reddit a week in advance and there would be no safe bases during that ~2 hour period.
If you were to choose between the two of these options, which would you prefer to try?
Your vote: OFFLINE RAIDING PROTECTION! Safe while offline raidable while online.
