Well i realized that there is no way for others to steal ur money.

Isn't it a bit unfair/unrealistic?

What i suggest is to make the currency an item (stackable of course) that also have minor weight (u cant move tons of gold or whatever like its feather right? or even if it is u need to transfer it anyway, its not universal like our power fro mthe generators :P ).

-That would make 1st of all keep our coints somewhere safe, cause other will be able to steal em. (thief fanction? bandits and so on) Or vice versa we could steal the treassury of one fanction.
-You would need to move ur coins/gold from place to place but also protect it. NPCs should do it too, so u could attack these "caravans", or bandits could attack those if they heard a word and u could protect it and get some nice reward.
-Each character could hold some coins and if he gets down he could also lose this as well (propably more chances others want the coin that the items no?)

List could go one, but it could make the world more living, plus more realistic. Especially for the start, you could think twice before engaging fights just to levle up if u could also lose ur money.

What do u think??? Does it make sense for the Kenshi's world?

To be honest i havent searched this time if there is any similar suggestion but doing a quick read my suggestion is somewhat different.

I dont believe its different personal and fanction money. Ur got complitely control over all ur characters plus a fanction is actually a group of characters so its the same to me. (im not talking about the citizens, they are like subfanction or "just on their own".
So money is money either if u have it all on 2-3 chars or u have it all in a chest at a tower.

It could add really great depth in the game if u need to transfer ur money here and there for some stuff.

Plus money/coins is an item, maybe low weight and for game's shake much smaller in size. (5k/10k stackable?) but for sure a normal char cant be weightless and cool getting a whole's fanction gold in his inventory.


Even if it got no weight or space i still would love to see the need of moving ur money. Being afraid of losing it, or stealing money from others.

ps: Easiest middle solution maybe is to have no space, some small weight depending on how much money the character got.

edit: In the other topic they asked where the coins will go if u buy a char.
Well they can either dissapear (no problem in that, items gets dropped and dissapear all the time, resourches are infinite (ores,etc) so no big of a deal, no?) or they could go to the bar u found them, or to the adventurer's guild treassury if there is such a thing.
Let's say he used it all in drinking before he comes with u :P

I assume it was probably "Money inventory item". Doesn't say anything else, but I think the name says enough. :)
