Lo:
I like this idea and I'd like to hear how it goes. I would suggest off
the top of my head that a few things be done first.
1. maybe an age/level limit before you can begin building? (kids can't
really build cities can they?)
2. Maybe a counter of some sort where the player must find *resources*
to build the house, THEN also hire or contract the builders.
3. Spec_Proc / MOB_ProGs come to mind....LOTS of ideas (foreman?
ThIeVes? something)
4. timer on houses to make the rooms *decay/need repair*? which would
also need more *resources*
5. Make the actual building of the houses take time && special-eq?
well, those are my ideas, I'm not sure how to code much of it, but i'm
sure the idea is 98% of the project.
