Game Mechanics: Boats travel backwards.

Just one boat. The Timorous Deep shuttles are running, though... just can't go anywhere. And there's the ship past the docks that was added later for a monster mission, but it doesn't do anything.

Supposed to be 2.

One going each way simultaneously.

NOTE: Veteran EverQuest players are not only likely to recall two boats, but Sister Isle being the first stop out of West Freeport. Though the second boat was not added until the Kunark era, the latter recollection is entirely correct: even though Antonica lies west of Faydwer, boats departing Butcherblock Mountains mysteriously traveled east to reach Freeport--the wrong direction. Project 1999 has corrected the direction of the boat so that it travels eastward to reach Faydwer from Antonica, and vice versa; this explains why Zach Reigh isle is the first stop out of Freeport, rather than Sister Isle as most remember.

Second boat isn't classic.

Boats will be revisited shortly. I bothered Rogean to code better functionality for them.

Currently.. we don't edit anything about the boats, because they break easily.

Does that mean we should expect Translocaters soon? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]
