Lost Desert Plot Discussion #71 (Summary in First Post)

ok, i still cannot clear the chalk outlines even though i've placed half a dozen pieces of furniture. when you guys double click, does it take you to the screen that says someone has stolen the furniture? or do you do something else?

The stolen furniture screen shows up when it doesn't work. If you clear it, you end up on its square. If you move off of the square, then the outline is fixed. It looks like you can't fix an outline for a certain amount of time after a piece has been stolen. If you are in a place where you can't fix any outlines, try moving to a less busy area to clear. Maybe all of the piece were just stolen in that area.

I just cleared up eleven outlines, so I don't think it's tied to how many pieces you've moved.

Can someone clean this only table spot in the basement? Top left corner

In my experience, it doesn't make a difference whether you place on a blurry or solid shape; therefore it doesn't make a difference whether you click on blurry ones to make them solid. Just place them anyway. All my pieces placed have been on blurry spaces, and I have not had to go to the Interior Decorator first!

If you're gonna move furniture (for whatever reason we are doing this) then please at least just do it and don't worry about the blurry/solid or ID.

Okay..NOW I feel like an idiot...it worked...So you don't have to do ID either? Now I have to try this to see just how stupid I am for not trying it...

Oh my, that's certainly a lot easier!

[abandonedcouch]

i kinda figured the stolen items were ones that were placed without talking to the interior decorator first

In the beginning, if you tried that, you got yelled at by the Yurble. I tried it just to see if it worked and well......

The foreman storms over to you in a fury. "You're not supposed to be putting furniture on this floor! What is this, your first day on the project?! Go outside and don't come back until you've learned to follow instructions!" He grabs your furniture away from you and hands it to someone else.

The one time I click on a solid, I get yelled at by the foreman and banned.

Do we all have different combinations of tasks? Why are there still so many places to put scroll racks?

lament of the table, by AC

oh, why did i pick a table?
i assumed that i was able
to place it somewhere good
now i realize that i should
have picked something with a lot more labels.

Seems the ID moved again. Not on 3rd floor.

Hi everyone, I just got up and found its all started again.

I dropped a scroll rack, but how do I get back to the Ruki to get another one?

did I have to talk to the foreman?

You have to walk out of the respository from where you came in on the first floor..
