Hey guys!Just a run through for the current options with the new Tribe Government settings.When you receive a tribe invite, you are able to click onin the activation menu, as an option. This will allow you to inspect the government settings of the tribe that has invited you. Therefore you'll be able to make an informed decision about whether you would want to join, based on ownership etc. If you do not see any government settings, that mean the tribe has not set them up yet and you should proceed with caution.This is where any Dinosaur that joins the tribe ends up belonging to the tribe (this affects any Dino you previously own when you join the Tribe!). So any member belonging to the tribe is able to unclaim, ride, access the inventory, command the Dinosaur to carry out actions. If you leave the tribe, the Dinosaur stays with the tribe.This is where the Dinosaurs are owned by the person who brings them to the tribe. However they can still be ridden and used by other tribe members (inventory access, AI commands). If you were to leave the tribe, the Dinosaur will also leave with you (and eject that creepy stranger who’s riding it!).This is where the Dinosaur is solely your personal belonging, members of the tribe cannot carry out any actions with the Dinosaur, only you can. If you are to leave the tribe, the Dinosaur also leaves.THIS OPTION ONLY BECOMES AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE NOT SELECTED TRIBE-OWNERSHIP IN THE ABOVE SETTING.This means from here on out any Dinosaur that you tame or anyone in the tribe tames will belong to the tribe, for total communal use.This means from here on out whilst in the tribe, anything that you tame will belong to you (and thus follow the Dino Ownership rules above) and if you are to leave the tribe, it leaves with you. Taming rights in this case are determined by who knocked the Dino out (if knocked out by a player) or put the first piece of food into its inventory. You can tell who’s gonna own the Tamed dino in this case by looking at the Taming HUD.This determines who owns the structures in the tribe, this will refer to who can place new objects, demolishing, setting pin codes etc.Tribe owned means that everything that any structure or object placed is under ownership of the entire tribe. Therefore anyone in the tribe can interact with it. If you are to leave the tribe, anything you have built whilst a member - remains in the tribe.This mean that anything you place is owned by you, if you are to leave the tribe, the structures still belong to you. Tribe snap allows other people to help you with your buildings by placing objects, as well as allowing them to build nearby. Admin Demolish means that only you or admins can demolish what you own.This means that anything you placed is owned by you, and only you can add on to it by placing new objects or structures. If you leave the tribe, you still own everything.THIS OPTION ONLY BECOMES AVAILABLE IF YOU HAVE SELECTED A NON-TRIBE OWNERSHIP IN THE ABOVE SETTINGThis option applies to Gates, Doors and Storage chests. It means that one of the prior is locked or has a pincode, a tribe member can automatically bypass this. Non tribe-members will have to either know the pin-code or they are unable to access any locked structures/doors.This option applies to Gates, Doors and Storage chests. This means that if something is locked or has a pincode, only you can immediately by-pass this. Other members of the tribe, or non-tribe members will have to know the pin-code to open the gates, doors or the storage chests.Hope this clears up some of the confusion! We will be adding more Tribe Governance options based on feedback (very likely related to Admin privileges), as well as making it possible for a Tribe to change their Governance settings more than once… but until then, choose wisely if you’re going to setup your Tribe Government because currently it’s a one-time decision!Have fun and feel free to ask any questions that I might be able to help you with here,Your Community Manager Jat
