  • A creator, that is either a player or a system creator, i.e. “System” or “Skills”.
  • A level.
  • Some types have a name.
  • Some types have a picture.

The individual properties of a badge are:

  • It’s type
  • The running number. As soon as a new badge is created it will get the next number.
  • A creation time
  • A current location which is either a geo coordinate or a player, the current “holder”.

Interactions

Drop

You can drop a badge from your Inventory (Rules). The badge drops at your current position. You can only drop badges from your chest with a long press action. Alternative you can move it to the bag to get the normal drop possibility.

Distance Rule: There is a minimum distance between badges on the map. Players are enforced to keep a 150m gap to the next badge during drops. This distance has been introduced to encourage actual movement. The system can ignore this rule.

First Drop

The first drop is a unique event for every own produced badge. When you drop an own badge the first time, you got a some points/score for it. For more information, see here.

Take

You can Pick up (aka take) a badge from the Map if you are near to it, so:

  • You do not need to stand directly on top of a badge to pick it up, you have a certain radius to do so.
  • This radius can be increased by the corresponding skill.

Paint

If you are lucky to get an Paint Brush Skill (or bought one) you are able to “paint” your personal badges. This Painting will be shown on all of your badges of this type (and level). It doesn't matter if its positioned somewhere on the map or in the inventory of a player. But you can only paint Badge types which you hold in your inventory.

Consume

ATM this only apply to Diamond Badge and Painter Badge. These Badges disappear after using from inventory.

Vote

Every painted badge gets into the voting for the most beautiful badge. The Vote-Dialog pops up random in-game.
