I Vote yes... but i would honestly rather see the existing major bugs be fixed first. But Definately would want this option. It would rule.

/Edit... Woot First!

We do have a pay interface you can put on doors and security safes you can put in to allow others to access stuff in your apt for 500nc and 100 hack skill. Does that count? hehe

Good idea, Nymex.

Here's my 2 cents that may be slightly easier to implement:

Duplicate keys.

In real life, you can give your house keys to a friend, but it could have complications. Your friend could pass the key on to someone else, or he could drop them or be mugged in the street by a stranger who could steal them. The stranger could then have access to your house if only he knew the address....

So NC could implement this feature to add a little bit of risk to the advantage. The duplicate key would allow door entry and cabinet access upon registration, but it CAN be dropped in a belt. The lucky finder would then have the same access to the apartment... if he just knew the location. The dupe key would not reveal this or the password. The password would be given to your friend seperately. In true burglar fashion, the key finder could just "try all the doors" to see what the key fits.

there is a total of 1 apartment entrance in entire FA sector..

think its a little too obvious..

otherwise it could have worked..

why not simply have a list that i can edit from the City Com and i enter the name of people i let in, and enter the names of people who can access cabinet 1, 2 etc

indeed why not... we have clan admin... so why shouldnt there be an apartment cabinet admin.

I'm definitely in on that one - certainly make it easier for non-clan types to manage their inventory ;)

100% agree, but to add what I said in another thread, have a ban list as well. Keep any asshats you don't like from even coming up the lift to your apartment.

Vote yes, but I believe that this idea needs a lot of programming from kk's part, and we all know that the queue is already big.
An easier solution to the sharing problem in nc2 would be if we were able to place containers accesible to everyone in the entrance halls and/or in the appartments. With the only restriction being (maybe) only one container for each hall, so as they wont clutter entrances.

Actually has anyone tested those new furniture? Is there maybe such a container already there? Is it accessible by anyone ?

5 Stars, great idea naimex.

How so? The current appartments will have a DB entry something like "RegisteredTo: Morganth" to show the appartment is owned by me and only I can access it properly. All they would need to do would be to change this variable so it can take multiple values, and then incorparate an interface to change the list in a CityCom. So it would be like the buddy + ignore lists, just for appartments instead of chat.

However, at the moment it would be nice if they fixed the current issues before we start worrying about new content.

As far as I know there isn't any placeable furniture that can be accessed by people other than the appartment owner/clan except the safes, which require HCK to get into so they don't really suit your purpose. Also, I am not sure if it is possible to place items of furniture in the entrances to appartments as they have limited space.

I did managed to place a cargo box in the hall of my apt. But, the box was not accessible to place stuff in it. In fact it seems that all objects can be placed anywhere in yr apartment. So, we only need general crate boxes like the ones we find in wasteland or yo's that can be opened by anyone and place stuff in them. As for how easy or how hard it is to make cupboards with owneship details, I think its not that easy, but in any case its also not my place to judge this. on the other hand code exists right there for crate boxes and can be easily be placed on vendors for sale, as long as kk wants them as well ;)
