Cannot lift previously liftable objects

Post by strpk0 »

I'm not entirely sure if this is intended or not, but IIRC in legacy haven you could lift certain objects that you seemingly can't anymore.
This is not a big deal, of course. It would just be a "nice thing" to be able to lift and relocate those as necessary.

List of objects that were previously liftable, but now aren't for some reason:

- Grape press
- Crucible
- Rope walk

The rope walk was liftable at the start of this world, but was made non liftable because it looked silly (I think :D)
I'll add the grape press to the thread. Could you mention the other objects that aren't liftable? Just incase the devs agree to change them.

Which is asinine. Ever seen an actual rope walk? There are two parts. Neither are much bigger than a sawhorse. At worst, you'd need to move one piece at a time for the larger ones (ship rigging), and the parts for one that make your typical "farm hand" hemp ropes are light enough one person can easily move the whole thing. At least, it makes more sense to have these movable rather than picking logs up and moving them.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

Indeed, I think the problem is more the lack of a proper graphic/animation for lifting a ropewalk.

Give the rope walk a pack command, converting it to a small unusable item that can be lifted.

This.

And let us lift the thing until the code and graphics for that is ready.

Intended on all three. Not a bug.

Just to clarify, I didn't post this as a suggestion because I couldn't think of any reason why atleast 2 of these 3 objects aren't liftable, so I assumed it was a simple overlook by the devs.

Not entirely sure if there is any particular reason why these objects can't be made liftable (apart from the ropewalk due to graphical derpness), but if this post could be moved by a moderator to the suggestions forum then perhaps this could be re-evaluated?
