boats as teleportation craft?

Post by theTrav »

I reckon this one might be un-popular, but it has to be asked...

Should hearthlings really be able to lift boats which are already carrying two liftables?

It's hell convenient, but isn't it also a little exploity in that it lets you teleport 2 chests instead of one? It also makes carts less useful.

Carts aren't useful anyway if you're planning to go over a river.

I wouldn't say it's imbalanced as far as game mechanics go but it does push suspension of disbelief.

I'm going to fast travel across this super grid but first i need to stuff two chests in a boat and carry that boat the whole way cuz it's easier. ?? LMFAO

No, I really think we're just waiting on Loftar to get around to making Karts fast travel. Maybe they should be liftable. WOuld it be so unreasonable to let miners who mine in caves use carts?

As it stand silver is barely worth mining out of a cave. I have a silver mine and haven't even bothered with it.

This. Maybe make it add some more % onto the TW cost, to 'balance' things out.
