CraftingSo I was thinking, instead of just having your inventory where you craft stuff from you have the following, you have something that's a bit easier to navigate and that makes crafting fun. Every Sorceror needs a home right? So my idea is to create a 'homestead' kind of page that links out to other pages. You have a section to the left that links to the profile, displays the avatar and gives the opportunity to pick a 'sidekick creature' that is like your favourite summoned creature. Then you have the furnace where you go to melt down ores and create stuff with these ores. The Barn Is where you go to summon creatures and see all of your creatures. The crafting table is where you go to make all the other stuff, like balls of wool, dyes...etc. The Storage section is basically your inventory. Each little tab redirects you to the page where you craft the stuff. Introductory Tutorial + HomesteadIf the homestead idea is used the tutorial can lead the user through creating their 'furnace', 'crafting table' and maybe a low level creature?

This is a really nice idea. I think once we get into the refining stage of the site (changing up the layout for pages and adding smaller things), I'll propose this to our programmer and see! It would open up a lot more immersion because actions could be set on a timer. Perhaps smelting ores could take a certain amount of time depending on the ore. And you'd have to make sure you have enough coal. Same with alchemy table (we're gonna have one of those too for potions and stuff). And there could be cool little pixel animations of fire for the furnace and the potions/etc being created for the alchemy table. I like the Barn idea too but maybe not "barn" as the name lol. We need something awesome sounding since they're powerful, mythical beasts. Hmmm..

Yeah the name suggestions were just ideas xD but yeah.
Some new suggestions for barn: -Kraal (South African word for where creatures are kept, pronounced Kra-al), -Beast Camp? -Enclosures -Alcove
I don't know about the time limit thing though, be careful with the times set. Maybe make that you can smelt more than one ore at once if you build another furnace or something? Because the reason I personally quit games, is because it takes too long for things to happen as per say.
So perhaps put it on a time limit but give an opportunity to build another furnace at higher levels. So at like level 1 you get a furnace, level 5 you get another...etc.
Edit: I'm just gonna use this thread for all my suggestions.
Multiple crafting - Is there anyway to craft multiple items at a time? So say you have 12 gold ore, your furnace and the coal need. Is there any way to create 2 bars at a time?

(: Oh yea, it wouldn't be anything crazy ridiculous. Ever played Minecraft? It could be something like that. Put in 50 ore and some coal and wait the 5-10 minutes for all of them to smelt into the 7 or so bars. (: It would be like a "let me smelt these and do some crafting/etc while they're cooking" deal. At the moment no, but I have already suggested this to my programmer for a later time. This would be considered an improvement/redesign which I'm pushing back until core features are done. ^^
