Hearty

From YPPedia
(Redirected from Hearties)
Hearties can be invited using the player radial menu.

A pirate's hearties are those he or she likes enough to add to his or her hearty list. This list, which can be found in the crew panel on the sunshine widget, allows the pirate to know if his or her hearties are on at a glance. Hearties are also underlined in game scenes to make them easier to find. Hearties are also exempt from the usual do not disturb restrictions. Up to 300 hearties may be on the list at any one time.

Players add hearties by clicking on another character and selecting "Invite to be your hearty," at which point a confirmation screen is sent to the player in question.

Players can be removed from the hearty list by finding them in the crew panel on the sunshine widget, in the Me Hearties area, possibly offline. Clicking on one will give a menu of options, including "Remove as yer hearty".

Info page

Manage yer hearties page

A pirate can choose to show all or some of their hearties on their info page. Clicking on the 'Manage yer hearties' link from a pirate's own info page will enable them to set 'Secret' hearties (hidden from the list) or 'Top' hearties (a hand-picked list of pirates to be displayed on the info page).

If either pirate marks the other as secret, neither hearty will show up on the other pirate's page. In other words, both pirates must have the relationship flagged as non-secret for it to be displayed at all.
