At current, you can configure your housing to allow various groups ([[hearties]], [[crew]]mates, [[flag]]mates, or anyone) to come in '''when you are home''' without knocking - this bit in the anti-list only refers to allowing people who are '''not''' your roommates into your house when there is no one else there. Consider how long the scrolling list of shacks could be if everyone decided to have anytime entry enabled. Throwing a party at your house allows anyone access via the noticeboard for one hour, even if you are not there.

Latest revision as of 02:13, 6 April 2024

The "Anti-list" is a list of requested game design features which the Ringers have confirmed will probably not be implemented in a future release.

Reasons for Anti-listing

Based on the Developers' comments on why particular ideas will probably not appear in game, some of the reasons are as follows:

Technical

Anti-list-technical.png

  • The server's performance could be adversely impacted
    • Code improvements might allow the idea to be implemented e.g. the maximum number of hearties was increased after Lizthegrey optimized the database query
  • Substantial infrastructure changes for features which are limited in scope

Download size

Anti-list-download-size.png

  • Incremental client updates should be of a manageable size
    • Avoid major expansions of existing artwork

Thematic

  • Little to no code changes but the idea does not fit into the game world

Philosophical

  • The idea runs contrary to the Developers' vision of the game


Ability to remove hats in tailor rack preview

"Anytime" houses that exist all the time
Configuring housing to allow entering when the owner or roommates are not around

At current, you can configure your housing to allow various groups (hearties, crewmates, flagmates, or anyone) to come in when you are home without knocking - this entry on the Anti-list only refers to allowing pirates who are not your roommates into your house when there is no one else there. Consider how long the scrolling list of shacks could be if everyone decided to have anytime entry enabled.

Throwing a party at your house allows anyone access via the noticeboard for one hour, even if you are not there.

In-game voice chat server
