Walls, Gates, and Tunnels

Post by Zhalls » 04 Oct 2014, 07:59

Similar thread on this subject:

Walls are useless

As of right now, I like how no wall is 100% impenetrable, and I'm really looking forward to the whole siege system that is to come in the official LiF:MMO release, but my biggest qualm is how some of the legitimate methods used to circumnavigate walls are non-repairable. Aka, tunnels.

Currently, if they stack piles of dirt/debris outside of your walls, you can simply go out there and clear the debris. If they dig out beneath your wall, allowing themselves to sneak under, you can easily just go back out there and fill the holes back in with dirt, and place debris that will make it harder for them to easily dig.

BUT... if they use the tunnel method, (not just simply digging out the dirt, you cannot modify said tunnel. It's permanent. You cannot bury dirt back into a tunnel in order to patch up your fort. This is sort of a problem for people like me that enjoy the whole breaking in and making repairs afterwards game. A tunnel should be able to be filled back in.

I'm sure this will be addressed in the future, but it's worth mentioning how effective a tool this is for griefers, since virtually anyone can tunnel and effectively make even the most expensive and strongest wall completely useless with no way of repairing.

Thank you for your time.

Better to be a virtual king than a real life scrub.

Yes please give us an option to fill in the tunnels. Its really annoying we can not do this.

When they implement tunnel collapsing this will be fixed, it's just not implemented yet

Will the earth above the tunnel collapse too, when the tunnel will callopse or will the tunnel just fill with earth?

You can also raise the ground and just jump over the walls. Ha.

Maybe have an option where you can fill it in if it's on your claimed land. That way it'll be a legitimate defensive option.
