I see who?

[CrazyBev]

Ok! So lets try this again, what about peepholes? Its always annoying when you have to go outside just to see if someone is there or not, or at least I find it that way. So something as simple as a peephole would allow you to see who is out there. I dont think anymore then that, just the people, no vehicles, or objects or animals, just the other characters. They are sort of limited in their line of sight as is. Maybe something as simple as say:

10g Iron
50g Glass (or lens or such)
Other tools/necessary things
1 day to make or such

Im not great at the whole, complete idea thing but I can at least get them started. Ok well thats all I have for now, please feel free to shoot it down, or tell me what Im doing wrong, or where this should have been posted etc. Thanks in advance.

Right! Sorry about that, should have looked harder.

Going outside takes one click. Is looking through the peephole gonna be an automatic thing? Or do you have to "look" through the peephole? Will you have to stop working on your project to look? If so than I don't see the point, unless you don't want people to know you are inside. And speaking about that will the peephole be a two way hole? See in and look out?

Well yes, if you are just standing inside it only takes one click. But if you are working on something you have to stop work, go outside, see who is there, go back inside and resume work, and if you weren't paying attention you could miss a work time tick and loose valuable time on a project. Also why you make it automatic, just every hour tick your person looks through, kinda stalkerish. It would just take one 'look' click, thats fine, and you wouldn't need to stop a project to do so. Unless of course that is too hard to program, doing something while doing something, which i have a strange feeling it might be... but if that's the case a peephole would cut still down on a lot of time. And yes, an added bonus is if you don't want people to know you are inside. Also what peephole do you know that is two-way? Sortof defeats the purpose of having a peephole. So now i wonder, if windows are implemented, are people going to also be able to see you from outside as well? They are big enough after all. Or would different sized ones be implemented... just wondering is all. And finally I had another thought, for the peephole, maybe you could see the project, "Attempting to break lock" on your door, seeing as how it is very close to your door and kinda hard to miss. But it also has been years since Ive played and now typing this I vaguely remember you get a message while inside anyway... but I could be mistaken. Ok well I think Ive typed enough for a weeks worth... gosh what will you people do with all that silence? I bet its nice!
