Placing presents
Once an item has been wrapped, the present appears in the player's furniture tab, and may be added to a scene like furniture. Presents may be inscribed, just like trinkets. When placed, a present cannot be opened. However, it will display a special bubble tag in the scene. Please note that if a roommate tries to remove the furniture, it will go back to the booty panel of the pirate that placed it. If a pirate intends for it to be opened by someone else, it must exchange hands through a trade or tournament.
Wrapped presents will always display (new) as their condition when placed in a scene. However, presents never decay, even when placed and moved within a scene. Presents in the booty panel do not display any decay condition.
Unwrapping presents
A present may be unwrapped by opening it in the booty panel. The player opening the present will be notified of the gift via a green chat message.
Once a present has been unwrapped, the wrapping is disposed of.
Historical notes
- Used pirate badges could be wrapped, prior to their removal in release 2017-06-14.
- Prior to release 2006-07-19, items wrapped as presents continued to decay inside the gift-wrap. If the item was fully decayed when opened, it would only last until the player who unwrapped it logged out.
- Funny glasses were once able to be wrapped until an unknown release where giftwrap could no longer be used to preserve items one day away from crumbling.
