Formal request for: Character containment feature

I would like this too. I have a maze and would love for characters to find their way through, rather than walking through walls. I like your zoo idea too. Somewhere for Stampy. :)

I only like the "drag" character option....and I'm against containment. But for video game sake it would mean they would need to make buildings "solid" in the game....or fences solid etc....they'd almost have to have the game shutdown for a month to figure that out.

I like the drag and drop idea - allows you to place characters together for 'combined' tasks and thing like that.

My worry about solid fences is that it would really slow the game down - characters would have to find their way to wherever they're going on task without walking through things. I do agree that it looks annoyingly bad when characters just walk through your carefully placed walls and fences, but for practicality I can put up with it.

It's something I've always wanted, but id imagine it's be almost impossible to implement.

OP, I think whatever way they implement it is less important than that they do. I'd like to limit certain characters (mostly NPC) to certain areas. I'm not sure I want visible fencing, though. I'd more like an invisible tile system that shows up in move mode. It'd have to work with the character dragging, yeah.

Hah, I see it now. The troll is strong in you. Funny, but still.

Meh, doesn't seem quite worth the effort to code and test. The option to store and place individual charecters that aren't associated with a building would seem like a much more attainable ask.

The Family Guy Quest for Stuff game which I used to play until it got to be too much of a grind, allows drag and drop of characters. They even scream and protest while you are doing it. I don't know why they can't implement this function for this game. I would love it if they would do this!

Been there and tried that! My thoughts exactly...Skyfinger should have complete control over the people!

Fenced characters would just be voided from tasks, from task manager. Or a pop up for non visual jobs, requiring you move your character from restricted fencing.

Mostly, I'd like this feature for NPC's, as I said, the Twonicorn and a zoo of the awful NPC's that I have in storage. Someone mentioned Stampy would be cool, contained. I agree.

I dunno how difficult this would be. I'm not a programmer. I'd love to have my Super Heroes hanging around the Super Hero area. Just food for thought. Out of the box thinking. Thanks
