kimbuck 746 Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) The Sydney zookeepers always place a banana on a desk in the rooms adjacent to the monkey cages .. that way they know if a monkey had escaped overnight...but returned to its cage. So what does a griefer do when they see a boat unattended?... they jump on it and raise the unlocked anchor ...and then find they cannot move the boat... so abandon it... but you can tell afterwards by the raised anchor "a monkey has escaped overnight" I have had four obvious griefing crews try to steal my boat ...so far, so good. They work in pairs ... use excuses of wanting to see inside my base... or could they get some grass, clay or iron..as there is none about ( There is heaps in the nearby wolf infested hills )_ You don't go outside, because the other one hiding will attack and kill you Why have they not succeeded to steal my ship so far? Well it seems my idea works ... so far so good. If you look at the screenshots you can see doors attached the side of my ship locked in a horizontal position. Also the entry to the dock has a locked door either side of the ship. They are in the range of the PB, and they prevent the ship moving out because the side doors on the ship sides cannot pass through the gap of the front doors. And to add insult to injury, around the dock entry underwater are horizontal barb wire fences, so swimming in to avoid the side walls results in a painful trap under water ( you can hear the "ouch ouch ouch ,,,," as they try..) If you are being bothered by ship thieves, try this method .. with the promise of bigger protection barrier range, you should be able to protect you flotilla. Another idea is to form a cooperative community and have someone place their PB at water level on the edge of the mooring pier to protect ships...and allow them access to share your facilities in return. Coperation and creativity works ...griefing gets you a ban Edited April 19, 2018 by kimbuck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Energritz_ 107 Posted April 20, 2018 Nice work kb, but in reality ships need some protection though 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimbuck 746 Posted April 20, 2018 I do not expect it to be 100% foolproof, as you always meet a better fool.. But its fun to watch them walking around scratching their heads and armpits.... and if they do succeed, then it gives me another challenge to come up with something better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
