Was just looking over the In-Concept forum and thought of an idea (may not be new but here goes)


Take Sunsplitter's idea of a hunting cabin and add tha capability of landing and taking of from a player's starship there. Give Rangers (Master?) a /grantLanding (playername) command or an option in the structure managment terminal. Then any players or guild:XXX members that have been granted landing rights can land a starship there and take off.


This would add a bunch of gameplay ideas


1) could integrate Rangers into the GCW by allowing then to set up a hunting cabin on any planet and allow their faction to start raids from there by allowing them to land Overt. (hope this is not to infringing on SL)


2) Would make us much more needed in advanced planet hunting allowing for quick drops to out of the way areas to organize long term hunts. We could offer this service for a price.


3) Would just be really cool IMHO


4) Give us a reason to push the Cabin Idea (if you all like it)

Yeah, it does sound familiar. Could it be something that was in that mythical Outdoorsman Proposal that now resides in Limbo (TH's desk)?




I thought that was just shuttle capability and not Space Transport...




Oh yeah thats right. Ha. Guess I should go back and reread the Outdoorsman since I obviously can't remember all that was in it.



Since everybody else quoted, I thought I would too. LOL.


Anyhoo, since it is in the game, make the HTFB able to fight from and use it for a landing pad. Give it a say 30-60 minute time limit to be totally huntable from, and landing ship.


(another plug about modding the beam rifle for ranger use.)

oo and since this is now the quoting thread

I wonder how long of a quote we can get going here before it really starts to get annoying. But, on topic, I like this method of handling things. I wouldn't mind still being able to take off out of a camp (as then I would never have to go out of my way to take off) but landing at a dedicated spot makes things a bit more straightforward for the landing half of things. Although I wouldn't mind Rangers just being able to land anywhere at all and then set up a camp for others to land at.

Good idea!


I think itshould be a portable landing strip/area instead of a cabin. The take off might blast the wooden walls of my little cabin.

Anyone think this will get nerfed in time, just like camps tho?

I originally thought up landing pads and becons, and named the SE in particular... back in September in the ORIGINAL modualar camps post.

Whether using camps (which I would perfer) or a hunting cabin, I think it would be great to be able to land and take off from something we as Rangers could set up in the field.
