Make Swans Float
Please Jorb. Make swans float I would really like to hunt the swans I come across while traveling the oceans but there is no way to catch them the other birds are fine because you can just catch them in your inventory.

Re: Make Swans Float
Alternatively, swans killed with a combat move should be placed into your inventory automatically. This avoids letting knarrs run swans over to collect massive amounts of them. Still gotta fight them my way.

Re: Make Swans Float
I think that hitting swans by knarr should rip the sail of it.
Then you would have to repair the boat with cloth.

Re: Make Swans Float
Maybe swans just shouldn't spawn in deep ocean. I wasn't aware that they were oceangoing birds, are there some that are?
I like running them over in the knarr on narrow rivers...

Re: Make Swans Float
I like running them over to hear the plop, but getting them for free? Na thats too much. Can still drag them on land and do it, but thats more work at least. Should have to fight them.

Re: Make Swans Float
Jorb could easily change it so hitting a swan with the knar would do nothing. like it does for most other animals

Please explain how a 20 pound bird would damage a knarr. I really would like to know.

Re: Make Swans Float
How does it damage a 20 ton aircraft? Yet planes crash after hitting birds. (Granted, bird strikes to engines are the specific problems. Despite engineering for it, engines are still vulnerable.)Vassteel wrote:shubla wrote:I think that hitting swans by knarr should rip the sail of it.

Re: Make Swans Float
Its a bit stupid that u run them over with a knarr but one has to make fishing useful somehow
