Idea of Water power

[Sircrews 0]

Was playing around with this idea

Water power they had it in medieval times and it made things a little easier.

 

Would be cool to bring creeks and rivers into game they would run thru each server with curves and loops like the real world.

So people could get inland and people that are not next to coast could get a good water resource.

 

As well as bring in the Water wheel with gears you could create from iron and chains or rope to make them turn.

To create anything.

I am not talking about steam power or machines here lol just a simple technology that would fit into this time frame.

 

It would be cool if you could craft a river boat with water wheels.

Large like a barge to transport heavy loads inland.

 

Just throwing this out there dont hate me for it lol

meant to add that rivers would flow and have a current so would creeks

this is similar to my idea of water flow and he adds very good points to this subject

So many threads lately asking for inland water, would be interesting to hear from one of the devs the challenges or possibility of having water inland that was above the height of the water table, let alone with any sort of current or flow.

+1 to dynamic water (wich I doubt will ever be implemented)

-1 to everything else, including ideas that involve working with dynamic water.

Dynamic water .... I'm not a programmer but yeah ... sounds hard.... notice almost no game ever does it.

 

 

Offhand I can only think of hydrophobia and minecraft(sort of).
