Ok so i have an idea of a marriage & housing system, a priest and oh lord, children.
I know that there may have been suggestions for most of these in the past
but lemme just suggest them one more time
Of course a relationship system must be established before this, but it’s up to you Devs
if you will make it or not. EITHER WAY it is not this thread’s intention XD
Marriage:
Ok so the process goes like this, 2 villagers fell for one another and blah blah blah, you get the idea.
Then they go to a cleric for a ceremony, this will then open a pop-up that the cleric may be promoted to a priest(will be discussed at the end). The ceremony will be like your conventional Marriage, or you can
make your own, it will depend on you my friends, i…we would be happy either way.
Housing System:
So ever heard of terraria’s housing system? The system goes just like that, EXCEPT instead of the “Banner” it will be a framed portrait or whatever of the villager/Family(just grab a few artworks for the meantime, if you decide on making your own design on the portraits) with their name/family name at the side. Just click the portrait/name then click on the house, then your done.
Priest:
As i have said you can only get one if 2 villagers decide to marry. To promote said cleric to a priest you will have to craft a “Mitre”(a bishop’s headwear) in case of the Rayya’s Children it will be a turban.
then just open the class tree and promote him. Hopefully i didn’t offend any religion here…
Procreation:
Well they can either reproduce or you can add a new zone called “Stork’s Landing” & building template called “The Stork’s nest”(just maybe a 5x5 basic nest). The reproduction will be made in the Couple’s house, the censorship will just be making the house impenetrable by the “X-ray” feature while covering the doors and windows with hearts & mists. In the other hand if you pick the Stork way, a stork will be seen coming back and forth the “The Stork’s Nest”, if a couple wishes for a child they will just go to the said area and wait until a stork brings down a baby.
Children:
So have you guys played “The Virtual Villagers”? The children works this way incase you haven’t known, how can i put this? Small people with unlimited energy that can fuel the world for billions of years?
They will be playing with other children, running, hide and seek, and the elders can tell them stories by the camp fire in the night before they go to sleep OR the parents can tell them stories while the child lies on the bed before going to sleep. After maybe 10-20 game days the child will grow up to an adult. If you guys want you can add a teenager stage, which they can be given the default job of worker. Then when grown into an adult in 10 more in-game days, they can be promoted to other jobs now.
I know the stork way is waaaay more tiresome than the usual reproduction, i thought about an alternative to the usual procreation because i know there are children(ok maybe a few) playing the game so Duh.
And also the growing time for children to a full-fledged villager was just a random number i thought. So it all goes down to the Devs.
So, what do you guys think?
oh and before you leave, if you don’t understand what I’m saying just comment on down below.
(I’m quite common for saying this in a confusing way )
