Thanks for spending some time to clean up and update some of our guild's older systems. It's nice to see some work being done with the guild, even if it's not visible to us.

Thirded. Or fourthed?

Hey Nohn...

Any chance you could look at the rooms in the crossing guild and make them in town. Several are out of town.

Monster Elec

You hear the distant echo of a savage Horde snarling in barbaric disapproval of your deeds.

Every room in the guild smirks like this to me currently, so it all looks fine:

> smirk

You smirk to yourself, feeling quite good about how you're doing.
Your surroundings fit your talents perfectly.

Oh, that's different. Contacts require being out on the street as far as I can tell, and doesn't really have much bearing on the level of urbanity.

<<That has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Exactly...? Contacts has nothing to do with urbanity levels which is what this update was about, which is why I was pointing that out since you seem to be conflating the two. I'm not disagreeing (or agreeing for that matter) that contacts shouldn't be available to use inside the guild or shops or buildings, mind you, just pointing out that you're asking for a different thing than what was updated.

That's just a poor choice of messaging for the contact system, imo. There are plenty of places inside a city that you might not be able to find a local non-thief townsperson sympathetic to the guild. Whether that level of realism is appropriate for the ability is probably best left for a different thread that's not about urban bonus.

>>I got a nod to take a look at contacts. Hopefully see something soon-ish.

That is awesome. Looking forward to the end product.

>>I hope to make them a bit "smarter" as to what is in town and what is not.

That alone will make them much more useful. It's nice to see it being addressed finally.

Making them less stupid is a huge update, don't think thieves will be let down. I've never successfully used the stupid things. It's irritating when it's faster for me to spam hunt/move than use an ability to find someone 10 rooms away because the contact 'couldn't find' them.
