Game Mechanics

Structures can be placed into the game world through the player using the building deed while in their primary inventory. The player must first not be in any no-build zone.

A no build-zone is an area around a npc or creature lair, point of interest, or city, where in which no structures of any type may be placed down into.


To use the deed and place the structure the player must click on the deed and choose the Use Deed radial option. Following this they will enter into a structure placement mode which will essentially be an overhead view of the general area where the player is at. The player is presented with a wireframe outline of the structure into which where they may then place it over the terrain. If this structure highlights as green while over a particular spot, then this signifies that the position is valid and the structure can be placed there. If the structure highlights as red then this signals that the spot is not valid and the structure cannot be placed there. Yellow patched areas with black cross marks represent no build areas that are set around structures or lairs. Places that are not yellowed out are potential areas where a player can place a structure, if there is room. Once the player places the structure, they are then returned to their normal camera mode and the structure is placed down into the game world and set up to be operated by the player.

Once the structure is placed, a waypoint is created and activated for the structure's location and an email is sent that includes the structure's location as well.
