Longship Houses?

[Geoffro0]

So I have been inactive for many years and I have come back to the wonderful sight to see that ships have been added to the game. Although I have yet to sail on one. I really want to explore with a vessel but I will have to wait.

Anywho, I had the idea that it would be neat to be able to convert your knarr and Snekkja into a longship house, Maybe the Knarr Longship house would be bigger than the Snekkja. That way your have a temporary place to stay and maybe less chance of getting your boat stolen. I am aware that there is a way to fast travel with your boat back to your dock but it'd be nice to have a more nomadic style of sailing. I have still yet to experience sailing so Im not sure if this is a worthy suggestion or already been suggested or compatible with existing mechanics.

Maybe to transport the longships from water to land, the player must build a structure or just lay down some logs for the boat to roll on.

I could see this being pretty complicated but Its be very very neat.

Im really proud to see where this game has gone from when I first discovered it. Keep up the great work Devs!

Ship houses would be AWESOME. Imagine being able to take a home with you wherever you go. In fact, the wagon style of ships is kinda dumb. It should be changed so you go below deck or something, and have a small area for cupboards.

It seems something fairly neat, and could work similar to how Wagons encampments do now.

I was thinking something like this.


I was more thinking that the current Snekkja and Knarr would be converted into a temporary land structure. Maybe if/when Cogs are implemented the Cogs themselves could always serve as a indoor house.

I wasnt suggesting a cabin for the Snejkka and Knarr. I was suggesting a structure that is made of the ship and can return to ship if need be.

EDIT: But the longhouse structure would be lost when the ship is converted back to ship form.

You were wrong to think this is better than Bob Doles idea. It is a good thing Bob Dole was here to make it better.
