Hey I love the public house feature. I was wondering could there be a tiny icon on your screen to let you know you have your house open to the public? Also maybe the green check mark by the public house button to let you know its on. Like the vip check mark used by the vip button.
That would be useful.
Make gang house public!!! Please :D
Yes!!!!!!!! I also want gang house to be public.Quote:

I am still hoping if any staff would consider this very simple improvement?
I attached an icon I made of what it could look like. and a screenshot for the placement.
I like that notification icon, is really looking good.Quote:

Thank you. That is a great idea about the arrow because say if you missed the alert at the bottom that someone entered in your house. The arrow moving is a constant reminder that someone is in your house. How's this for the icons?Quote:

There is no need for something additional on the screen imo, I will keep it like this now.

- Currently the status your house is open to public is inside your options. You can forget you checked it on.
- If you missed the bottom message someone entered your house? The onscreen icon would display it.
- Helpful if you were gifting someone at your house and a stranger doesn't come right in.
- If you're not at your house the onscreen icon would let you know someone was in your house. This also has to do with if you missed the below message that pops up and goes away. I say this because I tend to ignor the bottom screen messages because I just think its another streak message.
Now maybe the icon I made is still too big? What if it was even smaller? Like just a tiny shpere icon light with a tiny number next to it or in it letting you know how many people are currently in your house. I know the smallest web font for numbers to do this to show a people count.
Should make another example?
Sometimes I feel that I get, its fine the way it is so lets not do anything to make it better responses here. This could be a good thing? Not really effect anyone in a negative way.
I mean what are reasons not to try this? I can't think of any if the icon was even smaller. The only reason I can think of is screen real estate.
well i think era should experiment with it
I was actually thinking about that as well XD definetly want thsi to happen.Quote:

Yay!!!! Awesome!!!! Thank you!!!!Quote:

Not added to screen. iPhone has small screen already. But some type of notification would be nice when someone enters your house!
Really!? You're complaining about that being on your screen? See attached.Quote:

Even if its just a people count of how many are inside. Callimuc said it will only be on your screen when you are at your house. Others wouldn't see the icon if your at someone's house on your screen.
It would totally throw off my game. Hahahahahahahahah. How bout just make this an option you can turn on and offQuote:

If it is as small as in the picture you posted I could live with it.
Just an idea I think it would be better if your house was open, then the icon shows. Also maybe make it flash or something when someone enters.
I had something set up in my house. Didn't know my house was open. The greedy people on era entered and picked it all up and stole it all...I never knew my house was open
