Game Development: Circle the Wagons!

[kirion554]

When we reach the mechanical age yes.

I love the wagons, and I love the rafts. But I cant help but notice a glaring design oversight. It means we have everything we need to travel the world in a wagon!.... Alone.

Rafts cannot have passengers.
Wagons can have five.
Wagons with people cannot be loaded onto rafts.
Rowboats cannot be loaded onto wagons.

The oversight should be obvious by now. Unless you build a boat each time you cross a river traveling the world in a wagon is only feasable solo. The simple fix would be let an otherwise empty raft hold the passengers a wagon could. Or just allow us to load passengered wagons onto rafts (but that seems the more complex fix).

EDIT: After testing around with it. Even worse. People who have logged out in a wagon (for the sake of logging in with the wagon, and staying with the group) cause a wagon to stop being loadable in a raft as well. So now essentially the only satisfactory solution is to let passengered wagons be loadable onto rafts. Elsewise community carting, and gypsie bands are forever impossible. Additionally somebody can grief anothers wagon by just logging out a riding alt, Making the wagon forever landlocked.

wow that's broken

Jorb and Loftar obviously intend for the passengers to swim across rivers.

...huh

Being able to pass through gates with a wagon would be nice too.

[jorb]

That, however, requires bigger gates.

[Potjeh]

Would the sky fall if you made the wagon's collision box slightly smaller than it's sprite?

[DatOneGuy]

That, however, requires bigger gates.

Is this a bad thing? Gates rock, bigger gates rock harder!

If you change gates, do so this weekend, im gonna build a new palisade soon
