what about this:
after the player has stolen the item (after certain time) an clerk, officer
or whoever comes to the office. He finds out that the item has been stolen
and alarms the guards which become more suspicious. If the player comes near
to them, the will ask him to stand near, the will search for the item. If
the player runs away, the will start hunting him. If he comes to the guards
with the item in his inventory, they will attack him. So the best way to
accomplish the goal is to hide the item if suspecting the guards. If one
guard group searches the player once, they will become less suspicious and
thus the movement will be easier. It would be interresting to include
factors (of suspiciousness or even abusiveness) like running and being
hectic. Each movement could be registered by the guards looking for hectic
acceleration and slow downs and so on. If the guard sees as the player goes
into a dark place (good for hiding the item), he will become even more
suspicious and run fast to that place to see what the player had to do
there.
It is would be more realistic than anything I have ever seen in similar
genres. Not easy to do, though.
Tell what do you think guys...
