Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
Alternatively if this game is gonna go in a more competitive RTS direction, choosing fighting classes could require gold.

Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
We might implement the 5 minute ceasefire thing in the gamemode code - that's the beauty of it, we can alter that whenever we like without having to worry about the game bugging out.
We're looking into a way of implementing funding, so maybe changing class would cost X gold at a tent. We'll see.

Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
In other news: holy crap contrails are fun to use. We'll have to figure a way of getting that sort of thing into the offical gameplay, as they make escaping awesome! It'll probably be something more along the lines of a magic deployable that teleports you inside a wall than the current system though. They might be called contrails offically too We'll see. I've got a bunch of work at the moment, but it looks like drawbridges and hopefully other bridges will be in the next build, which opens up a whole new realm of possibility. Oh yeah, spikes too.

Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
Contrails should be built with max Stone/Wood/Gold blocks to make sure they aren't used too excessively.

Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
I've got several game mode suggestions, but maybe worrying about that already would be silly, since it's not yet known how the gameplay dynamics will be with trap doors, catapults, spikes, and all this other great stuff you're planning. But I do think that no matter how that turns out, a few different game modes would help the game reach full potential, using the neat engine and content in multiple fun ways.

They'd likely cost a bunch of gold and stone, likely more than you can carry at one time and be a construction. You could then only use them to fly into someone else's castle in an organised raid. @Azukki: Yeah, I think multiple game modes will mean the game gets played by more people - flat out deathmatch with only knights and archers with premade forts could be fun, as well as a more complicated anarchy mode that we've been thinking about. More on that later though.

Bombs are pretty overpowered.

Re: King Arthur's Gold - A 2D Minecraft-like
OH MY GOD
Just had an epic roleplay with Cossack on Nonseq's server. 'twas the Blue Unionworker Scumbags vs King Arthur's Brave Men of the Red Flag. It was excellent. Props to Peasant2 (AKA Ladderbreaker) for kinda starting it off.
(I still need to submit my 'complaintfist' to their Union Leader :3 )
