make slaves able to mine HQ.
« on: December 27, 2010, 07:28:24 am »

Alright, i said it!  now before someone throws a pair of shoes at me let me explain.  ( I am aware this is has prolly been suggested before )

Alts, alts are slaves already, they work the same as slaves they are more safe than slaves and because of such are more efficent, but come on!  what about us people who like to play the game the normal way?  What about us people who own slaves and wish they could be of more use than minig almost useless lq materials, and suicide ganking?  Besides that, how is it slaves are able to mine lq but not hq in the first place?  It doesn't make much sense.  So please add such feature ingame.

Note:  I have occassionally heard slaves mining hq but it never works for me so fix it if this is case please.

also it would make "Mine raids" a bit more colorful  ;D.

HQ stuff is supposed to be rare and (a bit) harder to get.
Mining slaves would prevent that.

but with mining slaves would come more risk, there is more likely to be a mine raid due to this feature so not only will it make hq stuff rarer but would bring extra (fresh) pvp.  in some situation ofc.  This is mostly for loner slavers etc anyways, why would big gangs need slaves when they have 30+ chars to all mine at once...

Slaves mine HQ minerals in Redding. I'm not sure about other HQ mines. If there is no dialog option you can go to a normal mine, tell your slaves to mine ore, then stop all actions, switch to automatic follow mode and go to HQ mine with them. Slaves will start mining as soon as they are inside. It's not exploit because the dialog is supposed to be there anyway (I asked dev about it) - if it's not available, it's a bug.

Slaves in mining mode can't reload weapons so watch out.

Yup i agree with JovankaB.
Slaves can mine HQ stuff in redding and maybe in other unguarded HQ mines too.

I agree with this suggestion.
Adding slaves ability to dig HQ ores will enable more trading in Fonline.
People will have more powerfull stuff and armors :)

Slaves are fun to rob.

And kill.

And it is more fun to bomb people who have better stuff.

I wish there were bags, backpacks, etc. in Fonline.

I have seen people taking slaves to gecko mine. Since you can't tell them which vein they should dig they sometimes get hq and sometimes don't.

I think the way it is now, it's pretty much okay. You can increase your HQ income a bit with slaves and it's ok since you also take a risk. I don't see why it should be altered in any way.
