Letter suggestion.

I haven't had time to search through the forum if this has already been suggested.

Suggestion:
A simple thing; Letters.

It's an item that can be bought at the standard NPC (near spawn).

Price could be 10/50/100 yen each letter, take a pick.

On this letter, something can be written. However, after something is written, you can't write it again.

The letter can also be "Sealed", so that one can notice if the letter has been read or not. This way, the letter can be used to exchange information or send messages.

It would obviously be an obj. The code shouldn't be too hard either. As one can input and make a variable that increases with 1 for each time someone makes an input. And make it run a check everytime the letter is attempted written/read. If the value of the varable is more than one, a message will appear stating; "This letter has already been written/read!" or similar.

I think this would make the game a tad more awesome.



Eteruu-

Or you could just make a "Read" variable with a Boolean output. If a mob reads the letter, read = true. Anywho, I like the idea. I wonder why it's never been suggested.

So I'm guessing that means supported?


EDIT:

What do you think, Smiles?

Great Idea, it can be tied in with the Taxing system we got in the works

sounds like a great idea makes the agme quite more interesting, you have my support

I'll add something to this suggestion: Carrier pigeons. These would be a simple and discrete way of delivering letters to their destinatary, if unable (for some reason) to send someone else, or deliver them yourself. These pigeons would have to be bought, and sent along with a letter to their destination. The pigeon would be temporally lost until the destinatary sends it back, with or without a new letter.

Don´t know, pidgeons might make it harder to Code and more work to icon

Not really. It would work pretty much like private messaging.
