[QUOTE="Thanee, post: 1714445, member: 478"] Something I am not totally sure of is how to deal with the time skipping. It seems awfully powerful to be able to just hop to a shadow and spend centuries there, while almost no time passes effectively. Of course this could be limited in all kind of arbitrary ways, but I'm not a big friend of such arbitrary restrictions. :) I just want to prevent, that everyone will do this all the time, while not totally cutting off the option to use time skipping or holding back time. The worst thing there really is a personal shadow with full control over the time and highly limited access, where one can basically safely jump to and then prepare for everything. Things shouldn't be so easy, I think. ;) One idea would be to limit the flow of time to the fixed boundaries of Amber and the Courts (somewhere it said what the time difference between the two poles is, but I am unable to find it right now, so if anyone knows where it says that, give me a pointer please :)). It would simply be impossible to speed up time in such an extreme fashion, like that years or even weeks pass within minutes, but rather somewhere in the realms of hours to minutes. Thoughts? Bye Thanee [/QUOTE]
