Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) We have a skill for climbing, we have body and body stamina for walking, but what we don't have is a reward for the endless times we spend sailing, driving and riding around the lands of Wurm. My suggestion is simple: Introduce skills for sailing, driving on carts, riding, etc. that give perks when at certain skill levels. They can increase slowly, like climbing skill does, or even slower. Perks could be things like but not limited to.... Faster speed Actions possible that aren't otherwise allowed while mounted Course alignments Reduced penalties for slopes / going against the wind / etc. it would make the enormous amounts of time we spend traveling in this game a little more valuable to the game-play itself.

Posted February 6, 2019 It would be great! Other options: right-click "Align to nearest cardinal direction" or an automatic snap to the nearest cardinal direction when within X degrees. For a high level bonus put the Wagoneer / highway system to use "Follow Highway" -> is only active with auto-walk OFF ( you must keep your forward key down ) and cancels if you turn, enter combat, come to a waystone or release the forward key. For boats: give a ~5 tile warning for grounding, if that's possible. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 6, 2019 It is a good idea for pve but because of pvp I doubt it will see the light of day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 6, 2019 Would definitely need to add to what we can do now, as opposed to being a requirement to do what we can already do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 7, 2019 +1 It is a great idea provided it doesn't become an additional gatekeeper for pvp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Otherwise you just get a dozen seperate posts, a page long each. a bunch of feathers instead of a 10 page petition. *shrugs* If the devs see a suggestion that's 10 pages long it gets noticed. they're (generally) not going to see a 1 page suggestion then look for all the others to give it weight. this is why i posted. ideally there'd be a sub title asking users to search for their suggestions before posting but here we tend to think for ourselves. and i tend to tend.
