Rowboat spawn locations and manipulation over land

  • Hi guys, it's me again.

    Today I encountered a rowboat spawned on Kraken's Watchtower that was completely unusable. I was unable to push it from two directions, and pushing it made it worse. It was on a sliver of water with a wooden wall in front of it, preventing it from being pushed out into the water. Below I've included two Twitter links: the first is a screenshot of it before I began to try and manipulate it, and the second is a follow-up video of my attempts to get it out. I failed miserably.

    The point of this post: could you incorporate a "drag" feature just in case a rowboat spawns in a spot on land where it has no access to water? Or at least be able to push it onto land with the push mechanic? This would allow us to manipulate and move rowboats from their unusable spawn locations into the open water. If I could have pushed this up further onto the land and kept pushing it over to an opening a few meters away, I could have gotten it out. Alas, it gave me the prompt to push but no button to press. It didn't allow me to push it. You'll see what I mean in the video.

    Please correct this, either by fixing the spawn locations or giving us the ability to pull/push a boat onto and across land so that we can get it onto shore or off shore if it spawned in a location not attached to water. Besides, rowboats used to be pushed completely onto the shore, we should be able to beach it to ensure that our luxurious/devil's cloth stays dry. Row up to shore and drag it onto the beach, unload then push it back into the water.

    Another suggestion would be the ability to tie it to a dock, that would be cool too. Either way, please correct the issues with the rowboat spawns. Most of the time it's fine, but this isn't the first time I've found an unusable rowboat.

    Below is the screenshot and video I took and posted on Twitter:

    Please fix this and give us a few options with the rowboat regarding getting it on/off shore safely. Thank you very much.

  • @sgt-dartez I agree i too ask for a better muniplulation system then the simple and clunky push mechnic we got. It would have been much better to have a mechnic where by a player can grab and hold on to the rowboat just like any peice of loot and then be able to push/pull the rowboat in anyway nessicary to be useful.

  • To be honest, it would be nice for a rowboat to be already attached when your ship spawns in, still with the world rowboat spawns also in case you lose your original one (or you jettison an annoying crew mate off the back after asking them to stand in it ;) )

  • It'd be really cool if you could move it with your crew. Have each crew member position themselves around the boat in specific spots, then watch (in 1st person) as the crew picks up the boat over their heads and then work together to move the boat to the water.

    You know, kind of like this!
