WTB another boat from FP to BB

[Kyosho]

I don't find it small and innocuous at all. It's a bigger thing to me than the class penalty stuff that everyone is going on about. Changing how the boats go through OOT is akin to switching druids to teleporting to wizard spires, and wizards to druid rings. Sure, the game would still play similarly, but a key bit of flavor is lost.

Yeah, I liked the classic route better too. There are definitely bigger fish to fry though.

did the boat in '99 take over 20mins to arrive is what i wanna know...i can't remember that far back.

Well i was taking boat often in 1999, I always though there were 2 boats, even before Kunark ... The pathing of the boath, when leaving FP, and when leaving BB, was different for what i remimber. But i couldnt bet my life on that, my mind can be wrong too. it was 11 year ago :/

I can't be certain about the two boats thing. I always thought there was two, but I didn't know as much about the game at that point, and by the time I did, Kunark was already out. But I do recall having to wait around at the Butcherblock docks for the boat for what seemed like an eternity.

Edit: Wait, there was always two, weren't there? I have vague memories of targeting the boat and getting two different names.

Its been bugged already. A few very problematic boat issues in oot:
1) there are not two boats.
2) the circuit for the current boat is incorrect.
3) the boat itself is incorrect.
4) because of 3, the proper docking at both ports of call is incorrect.
5) mobs hit through the boat / on the boat. this was addressed relatively early on after release.

The only problem I see is that once you get enough customers the waiting list will be longer than the wait for the big boat. You need a fleet.

We use the original path of the boat from 1999, where there was only one boat and it docked at both islands on each trip. We did this because its classic, and because it was easier to implement than keeping track of two boats.

As for the boat itself not being original, thats just a limitation of the Titanium client and nothing we can do will ever fix it.

Be happy we even have boats?
