Craftable Landmarks

Stephan
When you’re working with a very large game world it’s important to give the player some orientation points. We already have several of these landmarks like cities, abandoned towers or natural structures. But we wanted to give player the opportunity to build their own reference points. So we added a large bonfire to the game which can be crafted with wood and stone. By making it a craftable object instead of a static building in the game world we made it usable in many ways. For example you could light it to show your friends your position. Or you could use it as an emergency system for your clan.
