When having parties in our homes it can be stressful trying to protect items, but you want guests to be able to pick up certain items. This could feasibly be solved by "vending" machines. We could buy/craft machines that are we can put drinks/meals or other objects into that guests could take an amount determined by the owner. (options for taking 5 items every 10 minutes or even 50 items every 2 minutes.)
Our front and back yards could have gates that animals can walk through freely but glitchen without keys cannot. We can keep our herbs/RHK machines or whatever safe and let the public harvest trees/mine rock or whatever.
Any thoughts?
