Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Suggestion that hedges could be removed using a torch to burn them down instead of the current ways. If this has already been suggested, then I agree. Edit: To elaborate... Light a torch, apply lit torch to a Hedge for "X" amount of seconds (the timer). Hedge burns for "Y" amount of time, could be 5 minutes, could be an hour, depending on the QL of the Hedge (hedge burning graphic). Left will be the Hedge stumps and the roots (new burnt out graphic). You now need to equip your shovel and do a digging action on the Tile Border. After this, the Hedge is completely gone. Thanks for your time, hope you add this. Edited February 2, 2016 by Gumbo to add edit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2016 Had a similar suggestion going here, seemed a bit controversial: I agree with the easy removal of hedges though; the griefing potential isn't the same as easy removal of other fences, since you could enforce the 21 BS limitation anyway, and even without it you can already prune them down to the point of uselessness. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) What about burning down palisades, pole, wooden, crude wooden fences and houses? They burn too... Spoiler Please, leave hedges alone, they're good as they are. Edited February 2, 2016 by zigozag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 2, 2016 I like hedges how they are. They aren't terribly difficult to destroy, even though it does take several stages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Please don't be disingenuous by ignoring that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2016 I remember that, but hedges are fences anyway. A different kind, but still fences. You can destroy them like any other kind of fence, and they go down real quick. The damage they deal to weapons seem to be bugged, however. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2016 All for burning stuff. Granted fires in a game like Minecraft could get out of control fast. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2016 I'm a little torn. It's a good idea, but I like how hedges are a fence of last resort for off-deed areas as they don't decay. Making them easy to destroy could limit this functionality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 4, 2016 -1 Sorry but I like my hedges the way they are. If you don't want so many hedges around maybe let priests build something else when they need to make a pen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
