Is there any wat to connect plots from 2 different characters?

General

I’ve given permissions between my main character and my alt and vice versa.

But if I try to connect a plot owned by character A to a plot owned by character B, it won’t work.

Unless I’m missing something this is a HUGE oversight.

If I want to extend my settlement a certain direction and there are plots from a different alt in the path, then I’m screwed.

Sure, I could wait and grind to buy more plots for the alt that owns the plots that already exsist, but I shouldn’t have to.

Why can’t granting permissions include permission to add/delete plots?

Hopefully, I’m wrong and I’m just missing something.

I hope so. Lol

I do not believe there is any way to have one Character create plots that belong to another Character. How would that even work?

If you want to combine the prestige from all the plots from all your alts, you have to have them join the same Guild.

You can also just set down a new beacon on the other side of the plots in question and name it the same as the others so you can continue to expand with your main.

And as for creating plots for a character other than the one you’re playing would be bad practice for wonderstruck from a business perspective. And it would be bad for the economy in game because theoretically you could sell plots to other players.

Why would it be bad for the economy to have something else that you can sell?

Also, this is one of the reasons why I don’t like alts. You end up with a whole mess of plots/cubits spread out among your characters. Makes managing land a real pain. I have one alt and an abundance of cubits just because I don’t want him to have additional plots. I wish I could transfer them to my main.

More than likely less items would be sold and plots would be most sold item. And it puts in a pseudo pay to win in the game.

Would mean the “whales” would hold more coin then any one else

It would fall under the same category as sharing cubits between characters.
Someone could exploit the heck out of that by creating characters buying as many plots as possible transfering them to another and deleting the character.
Then repeat the process.
There wouldn’t ever be a need to buy plots or cubits ever again and that would severely hurt the revenue of the game.

I have a few friends that help me with the mall & I was wishing for this function the other day. I wasn’t going to be in-game for a couple of days and wanted to allow them to unplot shop spaces for merchants to take, but it’s not possible. So my discord PMs filled up w people needing help & there was nothing I could do since I wasn’t at home.

The perms are too general and vague imo. If I want someone to help, my only option is to give them perms that allow them to destroy/take portals, coins, shop stand items, etc. Not gonna happen.

What are you talking about??

Your argument is just wrong.

It makes, perfect sense to have a player be able to own and manipulate his own plots.

After all, he bought them all.

How could a player sell plots to another player if that system doesn’t even exist?

Having a player able to manipulate all of his own plots isn’t going to magically make it possible for players to sell or trade plots to eachother.

I’m not saying to let a player manipulate another players plots.

I think your confusing “characters” and “players”.

When I say “character” I mean the character you create when you start the game.

Then each alt is another character.

But 1 player owns all of them.

The current alt system is cumbersome.

I would argue it’s you who is confused.

Players don’t place plots. Players don’t own plots. Only Characters own and place plots. There is no way for a Character to place plots owned by another Character, whether the two Characters are owned by the same player or by different players.

I’ll admit I was frustrated by that at one point. Then I thought through the mechanics and realized how problematic it would be, and just placed a second beacon. Turned out that also solved my other problem of having my beacon recognized as a road instead of a settlement, but that an old story now.

How do you suggest having a Character place plots owned by another Character would work? Perhaps plot ownership would depend on who crafted the Beacon Plotter instead of who is using it, and Beacon Plotters can not be sold or traded except among a single Player’s Characters?

How would they know that each character is played by the same person? There’s quite a few people who have 1 copy of bl but play with family so there is characters for each person. It’s ignorant to think you way of how you use alts is the only way that it happens

Plots can’t be shared between characters/alts for the simple reason that @blinvir stated. Anyone could simply create an alt, rush it through the lower levels to gain cubits, buy a new alt and as many plots as they can, transfer the plots to their main then simply delete that alt and rinse and repeat indefinitely with the new alt each time.
