This is an idea that I think would help to make the banana popular again. After using a banana to restore HP, what if pirates had the option to save the peel and use it to set fall traps on ship decks or islands which would temporarily knockout enemies for around one to two seconds, leaving them vulnerable until they regain consciousness. To keep things balanced, there could be a set limit to how many could be placed on certain areas of a ship, like for example only being able to place one near one of the ladders rather than both so that it's still possible to board a ship without falling.
Banana Peel
I agree with @galactic-geek in that this is brilliant in concept, but I don't think it would work that well in implementation. There are just too many fringe things that would be associated to this that I am not confident it could work well without a lot of convoluted mechanics around it to try and accommodate for, which would in turn sort of encroach in on the "tools not rules" mantra.
I would literally buy a 50 stack of bananas and eat every one to put all 50 peels right around my capstan every time I set sail.
Even if they managed to implement a quantity cap per square foot or something, I would still maximize the banana peels by the ladders and capstan and rinse/repeat every time one got slipped on by a boarder.
For that reason, I can't support this idea.
@metal-ravage That's true, as great as it would be to see this kind of comedy added to the game, maintaining balance would probably be an issue.
