[Culture] Sculpting #1746

Open Dave247 opened 6 months ago

Having paintings and photos the only way to generate culture makes for a rather boring time as it means you are only ever building art galleries and only ever filling said art galleries with images. There needs to be more items or ways to be able to generate culture to allow for more interesting play styles.

One such way could be sculpting, where you can create a statue of a player, which can make use of emotes as well as the webcam facial animations, so you could have just a bust or a full body options. The advantage here is also involving the masonry profession needing to provide the limestone inital block, along with a chisel item that anyone is then able to use. So that people don't just go around and make a sctupltew of a unwilling player though there would also need to be a pose action which acts as a way to signal they are willing and ready to be turned into a statue.

Statute could also be made of game objects and not just players, such as a tree, or even just literality any object but in a mintirused form., again to allow for more variety. This brings back the variance with status previously generating culture but were removed in the playtest.
