This seems to be the first reference to Plot Rentals in a white paper:
In order to contribute DC to a Region's infrastructure projects, a player must own or be renting at least one plot in that Region. All players owning or renting land in a particular Region will receive the following benefits which will be inversely proportional to the Salinization Rate (SR) in the Region
Is there any more information on how the Plot rental concept would work? I think plot rental is a highly desirable feature (there were rumbles even that "Land Surfing" might be part of 1.5) but with the described models for building levels, upgrades, storage, etc, I don't understand how plot rentals would work... I guess it would have to lock all building levels?
Is it time to kill the Land Surfing rumour or is that potentially in the mix still?
