Loot protection

[-=V12US=-]

I would like to see this implemented, because it happens alot that when you kill a thief or guard, a teammate runs to yo uand starts picking up all the potions that were actually yours... damn bastards don't even have the guts to ask for them nicely

That's were loot protection comes in, when a human guard kills a thief, or vice versa, only the killer/KO'er can pick up whatever was dropped for 10 seconds... including dropped moneybags... after this timer runs out, the loot becomes free for all and everyone can pick it up. If an AI kills a thief, the dropped loot will also be free for all.

Good idea, ne?

Shouldn't matter, if you're working as a team.

Wooo I see the dreaded "Team" discussion coming soon

I'm not too bothered.

I get potions stolen from me, & I steal potions, so it all balances out

& I give potions to any team-mates that want them anyway, so I'm hardly handicapping my team

As a thief or a guard I try to check teammates to see if they need health, and pass on potions when i see they need them.

Considering HE Brought up the team thing... i should mention that it always seems im handing out MY health pots to them cos no-one ever seems to buy any these days.... :roll:

Yep, I get that a lot.

I give out my health to other players, & then seconds later I get royally-raped by a guard.

I buy three as a thief and one as a guard, I rarely need pots from teammembers, and when I do, they're often the ones that offer them.

I think the protection thing is a good idea, at least on dropped loot. The guard gets to show the employer his returns and gets rewarded (in points) for that. The AI's already have captains so there is obviously some ranking. Whether or not this is important for other stuff is debateable, as seen above and below this post.

Ohhh! That gives me another idea! rankings!
