while i disagree with the original post, these are unrelated. solo-player FCs can also be barred from owning Large plots or even any plots at all.Quote:

This would increase the number of lots to 4320 or respectivly to 5760 lots in total.
Also there would be a huge increase in appartments. -

If they made it potential to upgrade them into a Penthouse suite with a balcony for gardening, then people would be interested. Regardless, while doubling the Wards certainly helps, it will still pose an issue unless houses become account locked.Quote:

Adding more wards alone won't help. Not unless they add a ridiculous amount of wards, anyway.

just because you can't get rid of all bad behavior doesn't mean you shouldn't take steps to deter it from being rampant. -
10-13-2017, 06:03 AMloreleidiangeloSorry, but I vehemently disagree that a single player owning a large house is "bad behavior".Quote:

- Give access to Airships for private houses (1 for S, 2 for M and 3 for L).
- Give access to Airships for FCs without houses via their citystate Airshipyard (limited to 1 or 2 Airships).
- Give access to Workshops for FCs without house, maybe via the gobies in idleshire. This may be also a possibility to open Workshopin some kind to all players.
