On Ark there is a building piece that will notify the clan or the owner of a base that a player or Ai is within the proximity of the building or in the base.
How about if that motion detection object to be added here to Conan Exiles?
And what would be the pros and cons for it ?
Would a player know during gameplay or via event log what happened with the base when he/she was away or offline?
Will a motion detection object like it will decrease griefing and harmful trolling?
I like the idea but I think it canât be a building piece. I also think it donât fit to the lore this way.
But I read here one suggestion some days ago.
Just put a dog or other animal as watchdog and it is making sounds. Or a station where you need to put thralls or pets and itâs making a sound from a horn or something like this
Perhaps some kind of sorcery spell?
I havenât read all the Conan stories yet but is there anything with a wizard casting something like that?
Early warning type deal?
Would love to know how often others use my map room. I have it publicly accessible but just curious if people find it useful.
Hrm, you could possibly come up with something more âlore friendlyâ by using sorcery as a means to achieve this.eg: some kind of magical barrier that alerts you when someone approaches or crosses it.
I mean I canât think of anything immediately off the top of my head as far as Conan-lore goes, but I donât think anyone would get too upset about something like the example I just gave , so long as it âfitsâ within the world of Conan.
Then again, people get upset all the time over ridiculous stuff, so what do I know?
As far as lore goes probably half the people on the Forum were not born when I read the books my Father had I sure donât remember early 70,s. Never read the Graphic novels if thatâs the right word. My wife and I were dating when the first Conan movie came out or were we recently married . PS at the time was a 6 plex theater. Last time I was there it was a Best Buy like 15 years.
I donât know the answer to that, but Iâm pretty sure it fits within what the lore allows. Adhering to the lore is not so much about including only things for which you have concrete examples in the source material, as it is about not including stuff that goes against what the source material established.
Having Set heal cripples would be lore-breaking, but having a spell that draws demonic attention to your dwelling to detect intruders wouldnât.
They had this when thralls and pets would aggro while on guard duty. I could track player movements on my map rooms based on which animals were disturbed on the event log.
Yep. Back in 2019/2020 It really was my way of tracking everyoneâs movements as I kept a track of who was on and when and cross referenced it to the event log. I canât even remember when it changed but it did and all that intel potentialâŠgone.
Correct
âŠat least them showing up on the logs. Guarding thralls can still be on attack mode if you attack all designate them but they do not âreturnâ on the log.
