Long-range Ferry
Bigger boat that can be used to cross larger bodies of water. Can be disassembled for a full refund (don't tear down) with all the parts going directly into your inventory. Requires a Small Construction Site to build it.
When building it, changing the direction of the ferry is purely for aesthetic purposes - the path taken by the ferry appears determined by the landscape (nearest shore at 90 degrees to the lay of the land where it's built?).
To build:
Costs:
Built: Small Construction Site
Skill/Tech required: Ferry Construction Two
Comments
- Building a ferry in a handy spot (even on land) is a good way to keep a ferry kit available for instant grabbing
- Anyone sailed a ferry already? Can it reach new places in the map?
- Yes, and I'd be surprised if there wasn't an island or two that has become reachable. Perhaps more importantly, these things can travel over the Nile. (Cappu)
- There are some glitches in these things.
- Sometimes, the avatar never stops sailing, even when reaching land. Restart cures this (rare) condition
- The ferry is drawn on the opposite side a good while before it gets there. Confusing, but otherwise harmless.
