Thingwalls Explained

[shubla]

[*] Thingwalls are all located by a body of water, making them, in our theory, impossible to wall in.

Since they are all located near a body of water, and the idea was to make fast travel easier/more interesting. Why can we not fast travel with boats? Charter stones you could take an entire knarr across with you but with these you can't.

Only reason to travel them with knarr is to kick sprucecaps asses.

1 Idea of thingwalls is to have some LOCALITY, if you could tp in 2 minuts to anywhere in the world with any vehicle by using them, there would be no locality.

If you make the journey once atleast once connecting the thingwalls along the way then yes you can tp in 2 minutes to anywhere in the world. The only nuance is that you have to connect the dots between A and B now instead of just visiting a charter at the destination.

Not being able to travel with a bit boat seems a bit dumb since they are next to water anyway and charters let you do this.

What does "LOCALITY" even mean in this context?

Or maybe its to explore the map or initiate a big trade? I do wonder if you actually do anything in your life other than go out of your way to make stupid comments on this forum.

Well if somebody its you who should understand it. Locality means that some places are a bit harder for you to reach, while others are not.
If you could tp with knarrs every place would be like your backyard, But if you cant. there is locality, as you are second class citizen in places not local to you, there are some places in world that are more difficult to reach than your local area.

Teleporting whole hyuge ships is very dumb anyways. Like knarr teleportation by trail should be disabled, so there would be some sense in having land between rivers

The reason why thingwalls were added is that charterstones were not good. So basing any of your arguments on "but charter stones worked that way" is quite dim witted!

Aye, using knars on roads aint good.

It would mean a tiny bit of shitty mapgen could make a trip in a certain direction take several minutes longer. Without roads I'd have to go north and west, then that same distance back east, then a bit further still south to get to the only nearby river leading to the ocean - a river two minimaps away from my starting position. Other players are in worse situations, being stuck in mostly closed river systems and there's probably even people who have their Snekkja in entirely closed river systems. As long as we don't have canals or similar ways to cross small bits of land in a more reasonable manner, Snekkja/Knarr roads are simply essential.

would make sense if you could travel around your own kingdom with no travel weariness

atm theres a danger of people just simply not caring about kingdoms because the benefits are really meh

But the benefits are exactly the same as last world tho? And clearly people cared a lot about realms in world 12

Just let the people fast travel freely like in legacy. All this "locality" autism is just one of the larp nonsenses in this game.

Do you have any reasons why it should be that way? I can agree at least in relation to trade that it's nice to have that capability, but if your only reason for wanting that is because it makes it easier to raid/kill then I don't think that is a very good basis on which to include instantaneous cross-map travel.

Moving them on land should be possible, but slowly, not by instantly teleporting them. Its odd that they are faster on land with cost of only 3 blocks every 20 tiles or so.
