Tarring the Boats

[Lunarius_Haberdash]

I just want to say this is a really interesting mechanic, and I'm interested in seeing how far it extends. Huzzah!

Are you just posting this thread to dickswing about how you like things arbitrarily bottlenecked?

It does nothing right now besides make shit take slightly longer, and nothing at all later. It's not terrible, unless I misunderstand the mechanic and boats need to be constantly maintained with tar.
Annoying but no big deal.

That's entirely possible, I don't know if we have to maintain them with tar. I do like things that are bottlenecked for a specific reason, including making the mass-production of boats a little more difficult and therefore making them a more valuable resource. I realize that monster factions are likely dumping out tar at frightening rates right now, but for the average player this has a reasonably significant impact on their early game progression. I like the overall implications of this mechanic and what it suggests about certain paths of development.
