Housing Tweaks!

Before the month changes we have some big upgrades to player housing to announce!

First of all a tweak to housing upgrade costs!
- For in-subdivision properties - upgrade costs remain the same.
- For out-of-subdivision properties (but not ships) - upgrade costs are no longer doubled.
- For ship housing - applicable upgrade costs remain doubled.

We have just refunded half the cost of all the old double cost upgrades in out of subdivision homes to match these new prices!

Next! We've added a new housing security upgrade called SECURITY.
- This costs 5 room credits per room and applies key sigil, monolith sigil, and eye sigil protections to the room.

And another security upgrade called ORB!
- This costs 5 room credits per room and blocks track and flight in and out of the protected room.
- You can still pierce the veil out of the room.
- Airlord lightning will not be able to pierce the orb's protection.
- Traverse, the Yuthka Legenddeck card, and falcons will not be able to pass through the barrier.
- This cannot be deactivated, is always on.

Finally, while we have made housing more secure, we're also adding a way to pull someone out of the property. (Like all aggressive actions, you still need RP reasoning to initiate this attack upon your target.)

- The Talon tattoo costs 20 black ink, and has 1 charge.
- There is no cooldown to use this tattoo.
- This tattoo can be used much like Deckhand bribery.
- TOUCH TALON <person> and if they do not leave the property during the 20 second channel, they will be moved to your location!

None of the security upgrades will protect you from the Talon tattoo's grasp.

Please don't rush out and buy the upgrades right away, we have more additions coming in just a few minutes time!
