Detective Agencies are now live, meaning you can now go to the Real Estate office, rent headquarters, and form an agency with other players. I will continue working on this through the week, but there is a lot there already, so I would like people to start testing it.

NOTES:

1) If you want to join an agency make sure you have your popup blocker disabled. You need to be able to communicate with other members via private message. That can only happen if you aren't blocking popups.

2) Until all the features (including treasure hunts) are live, the game will not charge daily rent for headquarters. This is to encourage people to start testing now, even though not all the benefits of belonging to an agency are live.


THINGS THAT CURRENTLY WORK:
* Renting Property / Creating Agencyies
* Inviting new members
* resigning from agencies
* promoting/demoting members
* agency message boards
* depositing/withdrawing from office safe
* equipment locker

THINGS THAT DON'T WORK YET:
* Crime lab
* Case Files
* Moving/Upgrading Headquarters
* Treasure Hunts


- Have Fun

An uncluttered "current status" message board for each detective agency would be nice, where each detective could have one small posting that they could change whenever. That way, we could quickly skim over a single message board for current info we should know (e.g., "I need help analyzing this!" or "Anyone want to grab a gyro with me?" or "Out on vacation till 5/1/38.").

That is, the message board wouldn't grow beyond say 10 messages for an agency of 10 -- each detective would have one message slot they could change.

Hi, I'm curious what the rules are on re-opening cases. Does the number of experience points rewarded go down?

No, the detective that solves the case receives the full monetary and experience reward. The detective that initally filed it doesn't get anything, though, unless they are the same person of course.

I'm going to suggest again that there be a "rotating" system in the equipment locker, so that when you click on a new accessory, it rotates: locker->accessory2->accessory1. This isn't only in case the locker is full, it also makes changing accessories simpler (I just click on the two that I want, and they're on, instead of the second one I click on swapping for the first one).
