Steel Cage?

Postby FrankieLeonie » Mon Dec 27, 2010 8:48 pm

I found the building Steel Cage in the old build menu and can't find it on the wiki. Does this building actually work and is it just like a normal building or can you see into it? Does anyone know the person or weight limit on it?

Thanks

I think it's technically a vehicle, only it cannot move, so people inside can be seen and can in turn see outside and it can be locked.

It isn't working exactly as intended. First off, it's listed among the vehicles, and not the buildings. Second, it is listed as "Name (a brand new )". So there are still some minor issues with them. I'll add a wiki page.

It would be nice to build one inside a vehicle so you can move prisoners between locations.

There was a similar issue with log cabins in the past, about the type not appearing. The cause should probably be visible in the database somehow.

This was a translation issue in the test environment. It should look as intended in the game.

Before we do that, we would have to check if sublocations on land vehicles are compatible with the travel/fuel consumption code.

Oh wow, this was added already? I wish I still had a leader or guard, this is going to be a huge improvement to law enforcement. :)

Nice! Are they only constructable outside, since they are 'technically' "vehicles without engines"? Or are they being changed to 'buildings' and therefore would be able to be in both locations?
