Smuggler Archive

One of my guildmates, a Entertainer/Doc needed to get off of Tatooine cuz he was overt. There was some kind of live event going on so there were overt Imps all over the place. He contacts me, tells me where he is and I go "Smuggle" him off planet. Kinda sounds familiar huh? (EP4- Han smuggled Luke and Ben offplanet).

So my thought was... add an ability to change an overt to covert for a certain amount of time, say like 10 minutes or so so a Smuggler can get them to a safe place. To avoid exploiting this... make it a Master Smuggler ability so it reduces the exploit possibility. Add a twist and add the Smuggler and Overt-turned covertto the BH terminals! Now THAT would be fun! If either the overt-turned-covert or the Smuggler attacked a factioned enemy they both get a TEF and are attackable.

Thoughts?

Hmm... sounds interesting.
But the Smuggler should have to remain grouped and near the person they're covering for the duration of time. They shouldn't simply be able to type /hideFaction then run off. That would cause a lot of exploiting. But if the Smuggler could only do it one at time and had to remain with the person, it would really cut down the exploiting of it. Plus it would act more of "smuggling" someone.
This would be even better if we could have passangers in our vehicles...
