I am the mayor of my town on talus (triad citadel) and i like being the mayor. granted it is prety much waste of skill points, or atleast the perks of being mayor are non existant. like trying to get them dead players or just stuborn players to move thier houses. so heres a thought. once you get master politican instead of nothing happening you get a new option called "move house" using this command will allow you to move the house and all the gear in it to a new location of your choice. i know this wouldnt be an easy thing to make happen but even if it took the game a day or 2 to move the house it would still be worth the wait to get the house conforming to your plans. it would also send a mail to the owner with a wp to thier house. its a thought anyway. also here is another thing id like to see. when you hit master you get a master tree after it. it would be a very short one only, like 4 blocks. and call it the landscape artist profession
block 1 = cut grass ( this would cut the grass in the city limits )
block 2 = tree and rock removal (if you have a tree or rocks in town you can remove them if you want)
block 3 = surface alteration (this would let you grow flowers in town or make like actuall roadways of stone or let you flatten out a part of the land )
block 4 = landscapeing (allows you to put in small details like a mound of grassy dirt or stone pedistal so you can elevate your towns statues higher into the air. also allows you to place small bodies of water like a pond or small water way)
master landscape artist = allows you to place small bridges or something similar over your ponds or waterways. something to fish from in town mabey

im not sure but i think id like it to continue off the politican xp and cost like 2 sp only per block. im sure there are other details you would like to see incorporated but i wanted to throw this idea out. mabey the dev's will see this and make us politicans happy by giving us something we want.

These ideas are all rather good, but unfortunatly pretty much impossible. TH remarked about roads a few weeks ago, and stated just how hard it would be to do that. And as for rocks and trees, the only way right now to get rid of them is to put something else down in their place (Maybe a really small dot they could call "landscaping".


I like your idea about being able to move a house. Though from what I know about the coding in the game, it would make a month of living hell trying to iron it out.


Again, good ideas Hopefully one day we'll see some of them.

While I think that this isa great idea in concept, I can't help but think that the griefing possibilities are endless.


Just for starters, let's say that the mayor knows for certain that his city is going to downgrade, what better way to kick out the trouble-makers (read: people with differing opinions) than to move them outside the soon-to-be new city limits. I can almost imagine the uproar for the mayor that moves someone's harvester to a "more asthetically pleasing" location far from any actual resource.


Again, I like the idea, but first we'd need a required maturity test to play the game. Oooooh, Pappi, do you think we could get THATimplemented by the developers?
