Signs at doorways

Post by Teesh »

I got a simple and a necessary idea (in my opinion).

Wooden stands beside the doorways or stone flat sculptures in front of the doorways.
The signs or stones would look like something is written on it.
After click there would be a description "sculpture" or "wooden sign"
when reading (shift click) there would come a short description of the building like:
"Shop", "Blacksmith's Shop", "Library", "Inn" and one very important "Guildhouse of the Silverstar Merchants"
Thats especially why i wrote this post, everyone can work out the purpose of most of the buildings, exept the Silverstar House which is private and should be descripted. Only a few characters know that its a private place and whos it is.

I believe this small and useful thing can be easily implemented in the games code and easily made.

I think it would be pretty easy to do (but don't quote me on it), and I like the idea.  It seems realistic to have some sort of sign beside the building.  I hope we can see this in a future version.

in the next version there might exist some signs of that type
(those big hanging iron thingies) with pictures for the
business within the building. for example there exists a grafic
for the fluffy-sheep tavern, and several other vocations.
but its not yet sure, if they will make it.

It'll be in the language you selected at the beginning I presume.

Sounded to me like it may be words-with-a-picture type signs.
I remember a topic about Flags... are those done yet?
