[Suggestion] Use counter?

Postby CplHenderson » Fri Jun 14, 2013 4:43 pm

I can't see this being too hard to implement. Just a simple counter for objects, telling you how many times they have been used? i.e. click a phone, it has been used 300 times total? Maybe something more advanced like "4 times a day", and that might help with placement of objects and such.

I know it wouldn't do much, but again, I can't see it being too much of a problem.

I like this idea, it would help show us what sort of placements are effective, and would also help identify if there may be some AI changes required to the different NPC behaviors

+1, good idea. Add the [suggestion] tag to your subject to grab more eyeballs. :)

This would be really nice as if the phones are being used 20+ times a day then prehaps you need to add more phones?
