− | == Project Description ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The purpose of the project is to turn Hub into a full-fledged role-playing town with no compromises. One such town in whole wasteland! It is supposed to be another try and a significant improvement over [[Hub roleplay project]]. After the project start will be announced, standard 2238 rules will be replaced with Hub RPG rules inside Hub and other Hub locations created around the town (like Hub graveyard and Hub prison).

− | | + | |
− | == Project Rules ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | '''Important note: the Hub RPG project rules are not the laws of Hub town. Many things that are allowed for you as a player might get your character into ''serious'' trouble if you will get caught by law enforcement or by some lawful citizens. However you are still allowed to break the town laws (and get away with it, if you can).'''

− | | + | |
− | #'''GENERAL RULES'''
| + | |
− | ##You can enter and leave Hub freely as long as you don't break the project rules. You can enter with any item and leave with any item (if you manage to).
| + | |
− | ##To stay in Hub your character must have at least level 5.
| + | |
− | ##Game Masters in Hub have full creative freedom and they can do with your character, your inventory and environment around you anything, as long as your character is in Hub. However, GM actions must have RP purpose and be done by RP means if possible. If you think behavior of a GM is unfair or doesn't make sense RP-wise, you can use Hub RPG thread on forum or #2238help IRC channel to talk about the issue.
| + | |
− | #'''ROLEPLAYING'''
| + | |
− | ##You must always stay in character while you are in Hub. You don't have to interact with other players at all, but you are not allowed to say OOC things publicly, for example talk about game mechanics, builds, real life, announcing your online status etc.
| + | |
− | ##Because OOC messages are forbidden, /o has a different meaning in Hub. You can use it for insignificant emots.
| + | |
− | ##Name of your character should be spelled correctly, can't have decorative elements and it can't be OOC. Entering Hub with upsetting and obscene nicknames is not allowed. Cyrillic alphabet is not allowed.
| + | |
− | ##You should use English to communicate with other players in Hub. You can use a few non-English words for RP purposes (for example if you RP a traveler from Mexico). Your English does not have to be perfect, everything is fine as long as you are able to communicate a message and other people can understand it.
| + | |
− | #'''CHARACTER INTERACTIONS'''
| + | |
− | ##Attacking other characters in Hub is allowed. It is treated as non-fatal assault in most cases. For details please read #### part of the manual.
| + | |
− | ##Trying to steal from other player character inventory is allowed, however you are not allowed to harass any player repeatedly. If the character moved away, turned around or said something like "get out", you must walk away. You can try again with the same person the next real day.
| + | |
− | ##Using steal skill to place explosives in other peoples inventory is strictly forbidden. Only small items can be placed in inventory of other characters. For details please read #### part of the manual.
| + | |
− | ##Anything else is allowed as long as it makes sense RP-wise. If there are any controversies, you can discuss about them on forum or IRC. Final decision belongs to GMs involved in the project.
| + | |
− | #'''PUNISHMENT FOR BREAKING HUB RPG RULES'''
| + | |
− | ##Players who will break one of the rules will be warned. If they will keep breaking them, their character will die and will not spawn again. In extreme cases, bans can extend to the other characters of the player, even those not involved in Hub RPG. Obvious trolls will be banned right away. You are not allowed to enter Hub to complain about the rules, shout OOC obscenities etc. Feel free to criticize the project on forum or IRC.

− | == REAL ESTATE ==
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Every building in Hub has a private owner - a character controlled by a player or by a GM. All buildings in the town can be freely traded by their owners. Anything with functional roof and walls is considered a building, including tents.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | Containers in a building are property of the building owner. NPCs staying inside buildings are considered to be employees of the owner. NPC employees can't be fired by owners controlled by a player.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | All buildings (or even rooms) can have a closed or free nature. If an entrance to a building or to a single room does not have a door, it means the place has a free nature - the owner allows people to enter it freely. However it doesn't make it a public space. If owner asks you to leave, you must leave or you will break the Hub law. Entering any building or a room that has a door installed in entrance without a clear consent from the owner is against the Hub law. It doesn't matter if door was opened, closed or locked.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The only truly public space that doesn't have any owner and you can't be kicked out of (as long as you won't break the Hub law) in Hub is the street.
| + | |
− | | + | |
− | The private property feature is maintained by a special character controlled by GMs - real estate agent licensed by NCR. The agent updates the ownership status of every building in town and installs/removes doors on request of building owners. To sell a building to another character players must contact the agent. The agent usually will require a fee in caps for any work. Besides this it's an RP character like any other and should be treated as such. It's unwise to piss off the only licensed real estate agent in town.
