Group banks?

[shayd]

I had an idea for a group banking system, for example they could open up a dialog when at a bank and add / remove members to the group bank, then each time someone deposits / withdraws they get an option would they like to do it from personal or group.

 

This way players can work together and if they want to can have a join fund even when there fellow group members are offline.

 

Was just curious to see if any one else has done this, before I start looking in to it any further.

if u want that groupBank saved to the database it's quite the work and not really ideal :). ( Maybe i can find an doable way were the mutual bank is a virtual item in object_data).

 

Side Note:

 

What i'm planning to do is making A sepperate version of the SC scripts that only allows putting cash in a bankingObject that you have to build. And anyone can acces that object ( with code dialog for example). Basicly how the safes work. 

 

Maybe also an object that has no code to store money for new people (like a tent).

 

So your money is not virtually on your character. It will always be on the map, linked to an object (if banked ofcrouse).

Yeah this was what we was thinking! We are going to have a crack at it over the course of the week, if we make any progress will keep you updated.

 

Although if you changed it to a physical item, it would be easier as people could just share the code, and in theory you already have group banking...

 

Nice work again Zupa!
