Furniture visible on resting project

Postby SekoETC » Fri Mar 27, 2009 3:14 am

When you view someone's description while they're resting, it says something like "working on project Resting", but it would be neat if it said "Resting on furniture_name", or even better if it could omit the "working on project" part and have resting start with a lowercase letter. That way if several pieces of furniture are occupied, it would be possible to tell who's resting where. It has no practical purpose but might be handy for rp.

What if there are two of the same resting furniture pieces in the same room? :roll:

Make them nameable objects like we did with the other things.
Eventuelly well be able to rename even the resources and animals :lol:

J/K just have all furniture that have duplicates in their location numbered.
So a single chair will just be Wooden chair.
But a second one will transform the first into Wooden chair #1 and the second one into Wooden chair #2. Same for the third and /etc chair.

Edit: Why just limit it to furniture? This would work for machinery as well. Could also work for projects as well.

It would be useful for machinery in towns that have several harvesters or quarries which are owned by separate people or companies, and if they're all in use, there's no telling who is using the one that is off-limits.

Wait we can add additional names to buildings and vehicles with tools.

Why shouldn't it be possible to do that to tools/weapons/shields/furniture and machines?

It might be easy to implement as well as alot of code could be copied probably. :twisted:
