Improvements to the rowboat
-
First I need to say that the rowboat is an amazing tool.
My first improvement is a better animation when you're putting the rowboat on the ship. And also, for releasing the rowboat it would be great if we need 2 people. Because one person could release the rowboat intentionally or unintentionally. -
I agree with your criticism of the animations. It is glitchy right now and it needs improvement.
I disagree with your idea for having more than 1 person release the rowboat. It seems to me that the common strategy is to leave 1 person behind on your ship while the rest of the crew goes out to explore. And we have had it where the 1 person sailing to avoid the eruption needed to launch to rowboat to the people on the island. Your idea might make things really tough for some people.

I also agree with you, I took the rowboat alone because my crew left behind treasure and I went to grab it. I sold the loot and went back to the ship in one piece. I never told them either, as I was not using my mic at the time.

I HAVE THE SOLUTION! And a simple one at that: You need to detach BOTH ropes that hold the boat to the ship. Your thoughts?...
That's so much better.

That is quite brilliant. Although perhaps having a delay between being able to attach or detach after one or the other action was performed might be less intrusive.
