Skill point limit/Skill decay

Recommended Posts

Would mods that limit the number of skill points a char can have and/or that allows for skill decay of unused skills over time be technically possible?

that is how it used to be in Wurm Online.  People complained that they did not like having skill decay after all the work as it is hard to regain at higher levels.

I think the old skill decay system is still in the server code. I remember seeing some methods somewhere that appeared to be for decaying skill.

 

I think a limited skill point system is a better approach then skill decay. Why: 1) it servers as a means to limit folks ability to have every skill in the game 2) For my socialist ideals, it helps to make it so people who can play more don't have added advantages over folks who play less (yes they hit the cap faster but skill decay means folks who play more can have higher skill in more areas) .

This mod would be a critical component of having an actual Wurm economy that is viable.
