Chests and cages shouldn't stack?

  • Jack LittleShoe

    So, are there any plans to make chests and cages physical objects that don't stack one on top of the other? cause while its great for storing them, i feel like it makes it to easy to hide them, any ideas/thoughts about this?

    @jack-littleshoe This is a tough one as I can agree with you and also disagree. I have done that before put like 10-20 c****y chests all around my good ones making it so if anyone boards my ship they can't touch it without struggling a bit but at the same time collision on them could be mad annoying at times. Who knows I guess just leave it how it is.

    @pigeonman-beam yea collision is definitely a problem, but i feel like it's something they NEED to work on, and if they can figure it out behind the scenes and make it not cause a buggy mess, i would be all for physical chests and cages.

    @jack-littleshoe I agree that it would be pretty cool. To actually have to manage space on your ship. However I'm fine with anyway they decide to go in future. But I agree if someone pulls a me its quiet annoying to pick up the chests without moving a bunch first.

    @pigeonman-beam guess we will just have to take a wait and see approach on what they decide to do :/

    I like this idea, as I really want to build a tower of chests/chicken crates on my ship, but i don't imagine they will change it. As it would likely raise all kinds of issues like the one raised above, and also things like players stacking chests into impossible positions

    @royalsuperfish Honestly that would be cool to stack cages. I up that probably wont happen but great idea.

    @jack-littleshoe I don’t think they should clip through each other the way they do now.. annoying when trying to rob folks with the quickness😡 stacking them is a cool idea for space efficiency, 3tall makes sense🤔

    If the chests were solid you could build an extremely defensible defilade and that would probably be bad for game play.

    you could also build stairs to places you shouldn't be able to get to, which would probably be bad for game play too.

    @cpt-peach-beard We aren't saying give them collision with a player but with other chests. The chests already have collision with the world and objects in game but not other chests. Which leads to people like stacking a bunch bad cheap chests on good ones so people can steal my loot easily :P

    @cpt-peach-beard i don't think you should be able to stack chests on chests, on account of the fact that the chest tops are rounded and they would probably slide off xD

    Personal preference is no objects should stack when dropped, but not game breaking either way.
