You're using alts and naming them "peasant" and such? would it not be player friendlier if you used actual people to help rather than relying on alts?
Or if you are detered by gathering people to help, it's a pretty straight forward storage function to put onto several clickables down the route that will record the time that they got there...
Also, are people still expected to pass the scene in 30 seconds after entering the scene, waiting for it to load, finding the "Peasant" opening a message to them, writing and sending the message and then closing the message window? In 30 seconds?
Oh, and also open and read their papers within the time?
As an additional note, i'll provide TS's like you asked in my thread, but the timing issue needs to be looked at i think....
