Clean Up Britannia - Official Reward Store Discussion

This thread will serve as the planning area for the rewards that will become available from the Clean up Britannia (CuB) system and the copper rewards system. These rewards will fall into two categories.

Transferable rewards

Transferable rewards can be purchased only with copper coins earned ingame via the Clean up Britannia system and can be freely traded between players.
- Singing Crystal Balls (9 Different Variations)

Note: Random Sounds, Blacksmith Theme, Nature Theme, Wildlife Theme, Alchemy Theme, Tavern Theme, Music Theme, Spooky Theme,Combat Theme

- Disturbing Portrait - Changes when double clicked


- Creepy Portrait - Changes when double clicked


- Unsettling Portrait


- Animated Fire Trap - Blows fire when a player walks nearby


- Short Range Teleportation Tiles

Note: These items can be used to bridge normally non-bridgeable houses that are 1 tile apart. There will be a variety of conditions in place for placement, linking and functionality. But in essence they provide a magical connection between normally non connected houses. This will also be a player managed item, requiring no staff assistance.

- House Placement Surveyor

Note: This will be a charged item (using a small amount of copper) that will employ the Britannia surveyors department to isolate up to 50 tiles which are blocking your house placement attempt. These locations will be indicated by a colored, translucent, timed item visible to everyone in the location you attempted to place the house. Players can use this information to understand more clearly why their house placement attempt failed. These items will be also made available on the test server.

- Treasure Pile Addons

Note: This is a home addon with 3 versions available (small, medium and large)
​

Non Transferable

Transfer limited items can be purchased with copper earned from our copper rewards system or using copper deposited to your account via the profile menu.
- The Renaissance Bestiary Book

Note: This item will contain an index of every monster, NPC, Boss, Champion, Holiday creature in the world. Players will use the book to unlock each detail page for the related monster. Once unlocked the book will begin to track information about your interaction with these monsters (currently total kills, total tames). Players can also see spawn locations, rare drops, eating habbits, various skill checks, and other useful information for any creature with only a few clicks. These books will be character locked and non transferable items.

- Character Name Changes
- Character Sex Changes
- Account Recovery (this is more a recommendation than a cost, given the time required for account recoveries)
- Character Transfers between accounts.
- Courtyard Inspection Services
- Courtyard Security Services
- Vendor Management (Inspection, Move, Retirement)

- Fortress Moats (7 Designs)
- Fortress Bridges (Allows courtyard control for moats)
- Large Keep Moats (7 Designs)
- Large Keep Docks (allows courtyard control for moats)

- House Flags

Note: Purchasing home additions will apply a time transfer restriction to the related house depending on the purposes. Houses with these addons can eventually be transferred but the timer is reset with each purchase. ​

We have a few more plans at the moment internally that are still being discussed that will be added soon. At this point we are looking for more player input on the current ideas and new ideas that would suit the design of the program.

In order for the system to work well as a permanent system for the server we need to make sure the rewards require work to obtain, and are worth the trouble. These also need to be for the most part a different class of items than you might find in the standard reward store.

Reserved

The Clean up Brit system is based around a craftable item for your house. It would need to be locked down and you would minimally need friend level access to the house to use it.

Initially not. We can veer deeply into trammel and other problems with that. Our core goal is allowing bridged connections between houses 1 tile apart east/west. Depending on how this goes we can explore additional situations.

That's the plan, but we will have to come up with some sort of design for them. Given there are so few castles it might be delayed a bit from the initial system.

They would function much like the ladder/stool method works for existing houses. There has been some discussion on access level controls for them but no decision has been made yet.

Forward looking counters are about the limit of what I can store ingame. The stuff on the website is based on a database of over 50,000,000 items. It is possible we could one day add an ingame profile book, or simply expand the [profile menu. But the data we can store ingame will be limited.

The Bestiary will work because it will be a purchased item, at a decent cost, limiting the amount of them in the world that roughly require a mini database with 800 datapoints possible each.

If you can see it on the website, I don't mind trying to make it accessible ingame however.

Note: Arms lore can be used to target a character and get almost exactly the same information available from the website.

The initial restriction would be the 1 tile house gap in a straight east/west line.

Yea, I just exported enough information to test it. The live thing will be more accurate.
