Its easy to find the thingwall.
If you use magic once it will point you toward the direction.
Hope this helps!

I really struggle to figure out what the logic was to change from the old system to this

in my area its similar, to go west a tiny bit I have to travel really far north then back south again its just weird

Do you guys against this genuinely enjoy the act of finding a thingwalls? it's not even rly exploration since usually they're on public maps.

I'd say >90% of my gameplay is some kind of exploration and going out of my way to find the thingwall never rly adds anything positive to the experience, but is occasionally annoying.

I was waddling over to Coco's village the other day and in order to get 2 of the thingwalls to connect us to him for future fights we'd have to go like 2 unconnected river systems south which would prolly take 30-40 minutes for a round trip. We just gave up and went home instead.

I did enjoy it previous world where with a simple geometry I could predict where neighbouring thingwall is located. I do not enjoy it now where I have to use the magic.

Still, discovering thingwalls merely by stepping into a province doesn't sit well with my gut either.

Already reported this issue with some other thingwall to jorb, and suggested to let you jump between 2 thingwalls if they are close enough (even if not neighbouring), but there was no reaction yet

thingwalls itself are a bad mechanic. anything that makes them worse, or less convienient is a positive,

ultimately fast travel is cancerous, and should be removed, wich is exactly why you are trying to make them better.
