Posted August 1, 2017 Similar to changing tile types (e.g. sand to clay), create a transmutation liquid to apply to a tile to enable it to be a water tile. This would be nice to be able to place auto-refillable fountains in center of courtyards or near forges. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 1, 2017 +1 to that idea, surprised there isn't something like this already in game. If transmutation rods exist, why not this? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 1, 2017 so it doesn't change the look of the tile, just makes it like the tiles found with a pendulum? +1 Would it work on rock? In a mine? Grass only? Would it make sense to make it kind of like guard towers, as in 1 in a 10 tile radius for example? Not sure any limitation is warranted, just asking. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 1, 2017 (edited) +1 to having wells where they are actually more handy 8) just make it a priest spell, like a courier cast add it to all priests so no one can cry imbalance Edited August 1, 2017 by JakeRivers 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 1, 2017 I would love to see a re-work of fountains and wells as a whole. Wells: I would like wells to be built on a tile, like guard towers. Not be restricted to "water tiles" Have a building cost based on how far down to water level the tile is. (similar to how bridges calculate supports) Not have a standing amount of water. Produce 12 Liters of water per "Draw water" action Have speed of "Draw water" action improved by well Quality and Body Strength of user. "Draw water" action should improve Body, Body Strength, and Body Stamina. Damage of well would lower water quality Fountains: I would like fountains to be built on a tile, like guard towers. Restricted to water tiles. Should be able to maintain their large amounts of water. Would fill 1-10 liters based on strength of water tile they are on. Have a fill speed improved by fountain Quality (basically full strength at 50QL, double(x2) at 70QL, quadruple(x4) at 90ql, and Octuple(x8) with 100ql) Damage on fountain would degrade quality of water added Quality of fountain would determine "evaporation level" how much water is lost per tick. (or amount of damage water takes over time) Now I certainly don't think this is a definitive set of rules for improving things, but I just wanted to get the ball rolling for a better more robust system. Thanks for listening. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2017 that's a good thing to address, but I like Tallios' suggestion a lot better actually. It's a shame that wells are being made so utterly obsolete because fountains exist. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2017 +1 if you mean to make tiles to build wells and fountains on and even if it turns it into like a harbor waterfilled tile be easier for the seal pen i plan on building with a pool of water in it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 2, 2017 On a WU server we have a spell that can be cast on wells and fountains to make them permanently fill with water just as if they were on a water tile. Too bad WO..... =Ayes= 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 3, 2017 +1 Especially the enchanting from priests, either the tile or the fountain (fountain enchant would actually be cooler.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When it starts to get low, we drag it back over to the water tile to refill. It takes a bit of labour, but allows us to put fountains wherever we wish. Haven't tried it with a well yet, but I'm guessing it would work just as well for them...just would need refilling more often, as wells hold only 125 kgs of water. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(or amount of damage water takes over time) Just bless the well or fountain, all priests can do it. Refill like normal wells and fountains. or +1 to a transmutation liquid to change the tile to a water tile you would find with a pendulum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 28, 2017 Why does it have to be a magical skill? why not be tied to digging, like it would normally work if you wanted to move a water source from one place to another, you dig an irrigation canal. So it could be a specific dig action, with timer and difficulty depending on how far from the closest water source you are. The degree of success or failure could determine the quality of water tile, as in, does it fill up wells fast or slow, or at all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 29, 2017 +1 for transmutation, has to work on all sort of surface thou, and keep in mind that the watertile will also be in same spot in your mine. -1 for WU import in this case. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 30, 2017 (edited) -1 poor unenchanted pendulum's won't be useful at all and no more dowsing. Also seems like solving a problem that is already solved.
