The architecture skill and terraforming needs to be controlled with tribe ranks. Basically, it needs to be so that you can set what tribe rank is allowed to set architecture items and terraform.

Also, the tribe leader should be able to destroy any architect item regardless of whether or not he/she is an architect.

Absolutely no way - Please stop trying to add artificial barriers in this sandbox.

How can you possibly justify some invisible hand coming down from the saying "thou art not high enough tribal rank to do this!". You can't.

It is just the same as standard EQ clones like WOW saying that you need to be level x to be able to use a certain sword. Unrealistic - immersion killer. Leave it out of Xsyon please.

If someone in your tribe is messing around with your buildings then deal with it. Do not look for the hand of God to stop them.

Please Xsyon say no to this and similar requests.

How can you possibly justify that some magical voice says you don't have enough skill points to read a book? It's a game, some limits need to be made so players are unable to abuse systems. Magic is actually going to be in this game anyway...

How can you deal with it? What if you don't know who did it? I got a nice way to grief a player. Let's just say I no longer want to play this game so what a better way to annoy someone then to ruin their whole tribe. How can you deal with it then?

Tribe leaders should have the right to tear down any structure they deem 'undesirable'. Also architects should get approval before constructing a building. Perhaps a tribal leader would need to highlight the building plot, and okay it for construction, or deny it. Something like that.

Tribe leaders should have the right to tear down structures, however they shouldn't have the right to approve anything that's about to get constructed. You either give the architect the rank to be qualified in building structures, or you don't. He shouldn't have to wait for his tribe leader to get on so he can approve his blueprint in order to get anything done.

So, you just go out in reality and place your freaking house where you want to place it? Don't you need to own the land first? Yes, omg you do! Then what? Who owns the land, the tribe leader does. Who issues who can do what? The tribe leader - again. So in reality, this could and is sorted through rank/laws etc. You don't see everyone in your city being the city planner, constructor and etc.
People are in the real world (you know that exists right?) hired to do these jobs, hiring such a person could be through rank.

I don't see a problem in it. If you don't like your tribe's rules make your own tribe and say GO to building randomly and don't set the restrictions to the different ranks.

YOU are the one limitting this sandbox game, by not allowing tribes to control their own area as they see fit through ranks and laws. So shut it.
