Title: Changing Islands with a character
Post by: PolarRaven on April 09, 2017, 08:46:14 AM

I posted the following to the in-game Mentoring Forum around 2 months ago and have had no one offer any information.
Any information will be greatly appreciated.

Moving to another Island

sent by Harold Miller - 2 months ago

I know that one does not keep all that one has gained when moving to a different island.
It cost some gold, you loose some honor and prestige, you will be further penalized if traveling with too much gold.
Any bonds not withdrawn before leaving is lost.
I believe that Unique Items are lost as well.

What I am hoping for is more details/varification on what will transfer and what will not.

How much gold can be taken?
How much honor and prestige are lost?
Do you loose U.I.'s for sure?
Are scrolls taken or lost during the transfer?
What happens to any existing bounties on your head?
And what happens to the bounties you have placed on others? (I know they are not returned, but do they remain in the "pot"?)

And anything else, that's relevant, that I may have missed would be appreciated as well.

• How much gold you will have upon arrival is specifically mentioned on the Emigrate page. It's a calculation based on a formula, and we're not going to reveal all the details.
• How much honour/prestige it will cost you, is also specifically mentioned on the Emigrate page. Just like above,
   it's a formula which we're not going to reveal for everyone to know.
• Yes, you lose Unique Items. It's also mentioned on the Emigrate page: You will also have to leave all your unique items behind. By fate and coder lazyness, they are always bound to the island they belong to.
• I don't think you lose your scrolls, but not 100% sure on this.
• I should check for bounties that are on your head, but I believe they are simply removed. Anything you added yourself remains in the pot. But again, I should check on this.

Thanks for the info and all the hard work you put in for the game.

Scrolls definitely travel with you.

Not sure about bounties, myself. I *think* they're per-island (and it remembers you, if you come back, even), but I don't feel very confident in that memory.

I think that's the case as well.

Actually, now that I've taken the time to look at the code, I believe bounties follow you to each island. Keep learning something new everytime...

Bounties follow you, I can confirm that.
