Ok, need to clean this up, I got a lot of white space
I modded a wishing well for the garden. When you go to the garden you have a nav for "Wishing Well" and you "hear" a splash occasionally from people making a wish while in the garden (also added garden actions like kids running by and birds flying...etc).
When you go to the well it shows a little scene and you look down the well and can see how many gems are in it from other people throwing them in for wishes. (actually you only see half of what has been thrown in).
There is a nav for make a wish, you throw in 1 gem (admin setting for this) and something happens. Mostly good.
You can get: +5 turns, +3 turns, +1 turn, -1 turn, +2 charm, +1 charm, -1 charm, you can get your gem(s) back and nothing happens, you can lose your gem(s) and nothing happens, and the big taco.... You can get your big wish. You get half of the gems you see in the well
I Made it so you won't win a HUGE amount, but certainly a bunch. What you "see" in the well is actually only half of what is thrown in, and when you win this you get a message that you got half of what you saw in the well. So basicly 1/4th of the well's take. Good gem drain on the lands
When someone wins it is reset to 2 gems in the well (didn't want it building up over time to thousands of gems -lol-). And you can only play once a day and you get a small defense buff called "Hopes and Dreams" for 10 rounds when you wish.
I was reading the thread on the boards where players said they didn't do events where they didn't have a reasonable chance of either breaking even or getting something good. They listed a lot of awesom mods that they NEVER use because of this (instant dealth, stat drains), so I wanted to make something players would use, but nothing over powering like giving stat points. I figure the gem drain was a good thing, and only a small chance of losing and nothing won is too great a win.
Got about 10 scripts sitting in front of me to clean up, so I will upload it soon. Just wanted to get any ideas or opinions before I realeased it. Anything unbalancing about this? Should I add (take off) of it?
Let me know
Have a bunch of ideas for the garden now...it was such a lonely place I thought it needed something hehe
