Roads(the endless complain)

Post by waskander »

Sooo, now the roads are blocked by other wooden roadsigns, in my case, or by the road itself if not place correctly. Cool. I don't have problems with this or TW.
But I'm pondering, why can't I destroy my own damn road even with 10 str? I've built it myself a few sec ago and have to wait for my stats to increase? This doesn't make sense, being able to build something and couldn't destroy it, or disassemble it (as this function isn't in the game yet).

I agree: being able to build something that instantly is too hard to destroy is silly.

The game should track who built what and when to give an (at least temporary) buff to destruction so mistakes made can be rectified in a timely fashion.

Would have to agree with OP. Will look at it.

You can smash roads, with 10 str, provided you are destroying the end points.

Nice solution. Thank you.

Oh. That was fast. Thanks :D
(Even if I have to destroy half my road and it takes all my stamina, but this is a good solution too.)

That isn't an update, it has always been that way (that it's easier to destroy road signs from a dangling end than in the middle).

But it still isn't for other stuff, like village banners.

It would be nice if we had a little bit of a boost to destroy stuff in general on our own claims... I botched my palisade slop by 2 dirt and can't fix it today :oops:

In game called wurm it takes a great effort to build roads, people still build them as a community projects.
