Crackers and Cracking as a new thief skill and type

Hi Everyone!,

 

I'm no modder but I had this idea when I thought about the story line progression of the thief world.

 

We all know the inventors guild creates code locked devices. It therefore makes sense that a rouge section of the inventors guild or an interrogated inventor or stolen coding systems is how a CRACKER and CRACKING would take place.

 

This could introduce a new kind of thief character the CRACKER

 

CRACKERS cause problems for inventors, builders, banks, organisations and threaten to force out the traditional thief by forcing an upskilling of the entire thief world. Consider the thieves guild maybe at war with the crackers guild who consider themselves contemporaries as oppose to the uneducated, haphazard traditional thieves

 

CRACKING requires the thief finds coding systems and if he can locate the master code he can unlock an entire companies resources.

 

CODED LOCKS spreading across the city supported by the Watch, the Builders, corporations as a response to the proliferation of thieves. Now affordable are propping up everywhere even on common furniture causing issues across the thieving world.

 

Are the Code Inventors villains?

-- Maybe it is possible for the code makers to be forcibly making criminal organisation monopolies by providing codes only to those who can pay enough to the right nobles, invention masters etc.

 

Lots of ideas here for new story lines and game play. I hope it adds to something interesting for you guys.

Well, have at it my friend. You can explore your own idea by making a mission, its not as hard as it seems. Do a bit of research on the theme (there are a few missions that focuses on code breaking scenarios), watch some tutorial video series and off you go. ;)

      I've updated the articles for your FMs and your author category at the wiki. Your newer nickname (DeTeEff) now comes first, and the one in parentheses is your older nickname (Fieldmedic). Just to avoid confusing people who played your FMs years ago and remember your older nickname. I've added a wiki article for your latest FM, Who Watches the Watcher?, as part of my current updating efforts. Unless I overlooked something, you have five different FMs so far.

      I've finally managed to log in to The Dark Mod Wiki. I'm back in the saddle and before the holidays start in full, I'll be adding a few new FM articles and doing other updates. Written in Stone is already done.

      You cannot receive PMs. Could you please be so kind and check your mailbox if it is full (or maybe you switched off the function)?

      I like the new frob highlight but it would nice if it was less "flickery" while moving over objects (especially barred metal doors).
