When you click crawl your avatar doesn't actually crawl.

When you carry a barrel as a weakass newb and slowly move, you're actually pushing it while crawling behind it. Just not visually implemented.

Animation for rolling barrels would be cool.
then jorb could also get some work, while loftar is busy coding the rendering rewrite

Roll that barrel of beer and see what happens. (Hint: it's messy) Sometimes you just have to be Mr. Muscles and hoist that barrel up over your head.

Mechanic perfectly fine as is. -1.

Gotta agree with Magicman, I always wondered about rl barrel rolling and how messy it probably gets. may as well push/carry.

In case wheelbarrows could be made to load them it would be reasonable to not be able to lift full barrels.

On the other hand being able to roll them would be a nice touch, especially should they take ground inclination into account...

Still wouldn't be very immersive to load a barrel into wagon or cart as it would just crush immersion that You have to lift it high enough in order to put it in but meh, that's something I could agree at least with.

I think magicman raises a good point.
We also need leaky barrels when you don't treat them on top of barrel rolling.

So we should not be able to move full barrels at all then.
