RP Travel

Post by Amalia » Tue Feb 27, 2007 12:27 am

I find myself many a time wanting to take a journey with folk and talk along the way, but room descriptions, spiffy though they are, often get in the way of conversations. Perhaps a config option to turn off room descriptions (and see only mobiles, if there are any) when traveling the country (worldmap) or maybe even in the city could facilitate roleplay while traveling.

There is one I think it is Config +gag ^^
You ask 'What is a tri-force?'
Spaki says 'But vessels for godly energies would be hard to come by. Let alone tri-forces.'
Spaki says to you 'Just a word I heard from a fellow with a green tunic.'

One great thing I love about color codes in FK. You can change the color of your says/smotes/saytos ... I find a nice bright pink and a small pause between every room works perfectly. And the already lag time for walking gives you ideal time to type out what you want to say. As the leader just be cautious and look to see what the other person says and that nice little color code works wonders to make it bright red or pink so it 'pops' off of the screen.

On another hand currently there ARE some carts/caravans you can pay to go to certain towns and rp in the carriage as it brings you there. As well as ships that go to some places. Personally I would LOVE to see more of these. Ships that go from Westgate - Suzail (when it is done) - pirate isle - tantras etc... Caravans that go from Shadowdale to Highmoon etc. Even a caravan from Tantras to Summerfield. Give people opportunity to move from place to place and have a chance to RP without the room descriptions and those who prefere to walk can. Just need to shell out a few platinum is all =)
