Title: Close tent.
Post by: Karieith on July 20, 2012, 11:29:11 PM
I'd like the ability to close a tent's flap, it doesn't appear that you can. Maybe it's just this specific tent and other tents close but all tents have flaps and I wanna close them

close tent or close tent flap
open tent or open tent flap

Not only do I wanna close them on myself, I want to close them on other people in the wilderness and creep them out.

But not before running up to them and biting them in the chest, mm?

I like this idea.

I'd also settle for being able to set tents on fire.

Yes.

And I want to play a half-giant and pick the things up whole so I can throw them off the shield wall.

It's already scary enough out there...If setting fire to tents were possible...I would that there would be time for the occupants to have a chance of getting out.

All the more reason for closeable tent flaps!

Although...wouldn't you want to keep watch? :p

Sex party in my tent, you're all invited, just open tent flap and enter tent.

Then enter karieith

make sure you get that first I in there, it's tricky.

So should we be able to close the boarding ramps of wagons, too?

Yes

Not sure what the point of this would be, but I can't think of any reason not to do it, either.

Meh. It would make sneaking into people's tents harder, I guess.
But this does make sense since there are little loops in some tents that clearly say that it can be closed.

>Look in tent
You see inside a tent... the dood and doodette

You notice: The guy looks into the tent

I'm for it.

As long as when a tent is closed you can't look out.

And people can shoot your tent with arrows with the chance of hitting someone random inside.

I'm not sure if they've addressed "shoot in" and "shoot out."

I foresee there will be a lot of 'shooting in' in closeable tents, if you get my drift.

I don't know how much of a coding nightmare that would be to make that special exception, while I'm not opposed to it, it does slow down the application of my goals for future debaucherous spice-addled tent orgies.

Also good for private trade meetings. You could pick up things said inside with "listen" etc. Neat stuff all along.

The tent flaps can't LOCK either so there's nothing to stop you from opening the tent and firing in on my debaucherous spice-addled tent orgy should you choose to do so (and supposing "shoot in" can be done now) you fun-hater you.  ;D
