Persistent Resource Claims

[Caddies]

I suggest that the claims on the various raw materials and resources persist through resets.

I think this is good. It discourages 'set and forget', and makes sure the claiming factions go there often to make sure the land is still theirs, imo.

I vote no on this tbh

What is 'set and forget', or did you just make that term up? Why a group would simply forget about a resource because they've already claimed it doesn't make sense to me. Indeed, once the claim has been staked and challengers to the claim dealt with, interest in the resource should actually increase.

As for the claim itself, from what I gather (and I may be wrong) its simply that; a claim. Until the resource can be extracted (a mine shaft dug, fields cultivated, etc) then venturing out after every reset to re-claim the resource in your faction's name, again, seems a little silly.

Also, making them persistent would lend gravity to any change of claim. For instance, if a group claims some farmland, and then it resets, and a different group claims what appears to be the 'unclaimed' farm, then the initial group can't really tell if the recent group is attempting to overrule their claim, or if they just happened to claim it because nobody seemed to have before them.

I'd much prefer seeing a group claim something, and knowing for certain that anybody who claimed it afterward did so knowing full well who had previously claimed it!

They are a bit buggy at the moment. They really shouldn't persist as long as that for a variety reasons, one being that monsters should/will wander there and disrupt your claim.

For the one ressource i know of, you can mine it already. So it makes sense to go there regularly to mine if you're claiming the place. Each time you go, you clear the monsters, reclaim if you must, and mine.

Leave as is, imo.

Aha, wasn't aware monsters can disrupt claims. Thanks!
