Storage Tents

Bob Stuntsville
a lot of people have asked for placeable tents, however I have heard little about how they would function and what they would be useful for, so here's my shot at making tents have a purpose.
Tents can be crafted using some variety of cloth, sticks, and a big leather roll. the tent item can be placed in the big leather roll slot on a backpack. the player can set the tent like they can set a grass ball on the floor. placing the tent will immediately set it up (and maybe even set up a cute little campfire rock ring). surrounding the tent is a magical blue ring. anything placed in the ring will be saved as part of the tent. the tent will also have an easy to use bag hook on one rung of the tent support. if the player walks outside of the blue ring then the tent and all of it's contents will disappear and leave only a glowing phantom pedestal and hand icon behind. the pedestal is only visible for the player whom the tent belongs to. placing your hand on the apparition brings your tent back along with all saved items. if the player would like to move the tent, they can grab and move the opposite rung of the tent until it pops out just like pulling rocks or flint from the ground. picking up the tent does not save items and they instead stay on the floor.
the tent would be great for players exploring the forest and need a small place to recuperate or rest by. but it's main function is to be used as player storage. players have already proven that they want extended storage and a new personalized tent they can place anywhere they please would be a fun way to achieve that goal

ATT is dry on updates. It needs something to revive it, it needs..
tents.
Tents would come with weather, campfire spits, the ability to quiet background noise, new background noise, they'd make you slightly more hidden from animals, and give you the "well rested" effect. You'd be able to put them on your back, like how you can with big leather rolls currently. You'd also be able to hang your lantern from the poles holding the tent upright.
Instead of an instant set-up, it'd be like crafting. You'd have to nail in stakes, and set up the poles, and drape the canvas/big leather over it, making the camping experience more enjoyable. You could also camp on the sides of mountains, creating a small temp platform until the camp is moved.
The "well rested" effect is just a slight buff to speed, health, and stamina, though when you receive it you become hungry, having your fullness set to 0 and hunger drained a bit.
There would be new background noise. Finally, those stupid birds are gone. Instead having different noises for different areas. Sitting in a tent would muffle outside noise.
As mentioned before, weather would be added too, making tents more important when exploring far out of town, for their weather protection. This would tie into seasons, and many other features people want.
Tents would come hand-in-hand with adding more larger biomes, as it gives players a way to stay safe while traveling abroad.
They'd also come hand in hand with a slight cooking overhaul.
Adding a placeable campfire spit so cauldrons and larger pieces of meat wouldn't be flung would be great, almost like a portable tavern-thing.

An attachable and transportable tent; this is an idea I am strongly passionate about. I think this generally could entice me to play more again!

for future reference. i wanted to make it clear that this was merely an experiment on my behalf on the idea of making the tent idea worth adding. while the idea in a vacuum still holds merit i believe, it causes a much larger issue with the quiet obsolescence of housing. if tents were to be added in this way, housing would no longer need to be added. housing is far more interesting and game changing as a concept than tents, even if they serve the same gameplay purpose. housing is far more impactful than this idea. if you wish to see this tent in the game, i recommend supporting other housing suggestions instead.

This seems like a "housing" but portable, this is a amazing idea! I would love tents or even housing to come... It used to be a idea to add housing.

adding onto this i feel like the outside of a tent would have a bag hook so that if your in more of a rp mood, or just want to set your bag down at night you have a place to put it.
or you could get an the "well rested buff" when putting it there since sleeping with a bag on your back would make your sore or uncomfortable in the morning.
sleeping with your bag on could give a debuff of slowness for a few minutes upon first waking up

A cool upgrade such as a tipi could be added... Harder to set up/take down but can house more people. ("Well Rested..." nice Skyrim ref...)
