The Boars! They Float!

Postby Theros_Pherae » Thu Mar 03, 2011 8:16 am

So I was doing a strange combination of musselhunting and animal puzlverizing, when I decide to fight a boar. Now, my boat already had 2 dead boars in it, so I was just killing this one for the LP. I jump out of the boat to melee it because I don't want to waste arrows, and it wrecks my boat. I end up with:

In case you can't tell, at least 1 of those dead boars is in the shallow water. Floating.

I didn't have time to attempt to recreate the bug, but if it can be recreated, this could potentially be a very annoying bug - have people wreck boats holding runestones mid-river so that you can create a pretty effective river blockade, maybe? If necessary, I will try to find time to recreate the bug.

And sorry if this has already shown up, but my searching showed that it hadn't.

Blocking off rivers with Boars, the future of Griefing is born here. Tried it with bears? Maybe we can get a cart bridge .

yea any liftable item from a destroyed boat stays on top of the water. pro tip though, they are still liftable, e.g. from another boat.

I'd rather have a root beer float.

Of course they are. But if they're blocking a river, it'd still be a pain in the butt to move enough to actually get a boat through.

i suppose it could be used as a murder trap, someone comes by and starts to remove the boars to get across the river...while all the while your hiding in the bushes just waiting for em..
i really need to find a good signature

Or even better:
CLaim over, leave runestones on river and everyone who wants to pass need to leave at least thief scents there... Then track them down and profit?

They would also need at least tresspassing+theft too
And because it's not everyone that have thoses skills, they wouldnt be able to cross the river at all
