Quick Idea for added depth to the water pump mechanic.

  • Hey guys,

    I think it would be a cool idea to add a function to the water pump in the ship, where if you pump it when the barrel is full it overflows into the haul of the ship. This would be nice if you are trying to fill the ship with water to place plants for cargo runs or for a stealthy ship sinking where someone sneaks aboard and fills someone else ship using this new feature.

    Let me know what you guys think?

  • @rickferd this has been suggested when that barrel was introduced...I say the same as then: no, because there shouldn't be a way to sink another ship without any visual or hearable actions...

  • @Schwammlgott
    The entire ship flooding with water is very visual I think. They can just add a strong water splash sound behind it and it would probably be okay.
    @Rickferd
    I still say no to this though. You do not need to hold left click for the entire animation while filling that barrel. You can cancel the animation by just letting left click go. Moreover, you can just spam this animation cancel to sink any ship in less than half a minute. It's extremely easy to abuse therefore shouldn't be added.

  • @sdrewger I mean when you are not on the ship, but you see it...this way there is no indicator at all
