Please give us specialized Permissions

SilverBride · March 2

Right now we have Visitor that allows for interacting with everything... lights, music boxes, player placed doors, and interactible furnishings such as the Elsweyr Gong. And limited Visitor that blocks access to these. This does not give us enough control to make our houses function at their best when receiving guests.

I had a recent incident where someone went around and turned off all or some of the lights in 31 of my houses. It took a long time going through and resetting all these so I changed permissions to Limited Visitor to prevent it from happening again. Because of this I had to leave doors I had placed open so visitors could get past them, but this really takes away from the look I was going for.

Rather than having Visitor and Limited Visitor please give us a Permissions list that we can choose the objects that are allowed. It may look something like this:

X Lights
X Music Boxes
✓ Doors
✓Interactible furnishings

Yes, I have thought about this for years. I also hope they add a default state for each door, so when the last person leaves, or someone visits and they are the only one in the house, that all the doors reset to the desired state.

It would save so much time visiting all my homes every few days to close all my doors and check other interactable items.

Oh yes! Doors are the bane of my life!

I have one build that relies heavily on the three doors being closed as visitors arrive, a mechanism to close them when the house has no population would be brilliant!

I don’t know why visitors think it’s okay to mess with your furnishing items like lights, but it does happen. Either add this to the housing permissions or add some way to lock the lighting furnishings so they cannot be changed, whichever is easier.

Turning off lights is by far the most disruptive of things visitors can do. I'd be happy if they even gave us just two choices, lights and everything else, that we can check which we will allow.

Ha, I used to feel sad that I don’t ever get visitors, but now I feel better.
