World Ships! [500+ Supporters! (and A Lot Of Cats)]

Especially with the Gavel expansion, travelling has become more difficult, as distances are increasing!


So, I thought about adding a new means of transportation, ships!

- You can enter the [Ship-menu] via a npc located at the port;

The two port-destination would be Nemract (at the docks), and Llevigar, (at the place the "Priate's Trove" quest is started)

- The ship menu will let you buy and customize a ship. At higher costs and levels, you can unlock perks like a nemract whiskey bar or even a little on-board bank

- Once you bought the ship, you can access it via entering a mini-portal in form of some particles floating around at the end of the landing stages

- You can then choose a destination! Note: Some islands (these far away) can only be chosen after buying an upgrade of range at the shipyard

- Depending on how far away your destination is, it will take 1-5 minutes to get there. While traveling you are in a boat containing your bought facilities. Similiar to the current air-traveling system, you'd hear/see particles, to make the whole thing seem more like travelling, while in truth, you aren't moving at all.

- Upon reaching your desired destination, you will be teleported out of the ship.


This will not replace the current boat system, since they are useful for travelling between smaller island.

(Suggestion for level-unlocks and the neat color-formatting made by @Jaycee !)

short = (60 sec), fair = (120 sec), medium = (180 sec), long = (240 sec), far = (300 sec)

Piracy:
By default, you have a 10% chance of getting attacked by pirates while traveling.
The chance increases by 5% for every new Tier of destinations unlocked.
The chance can be lowered, by buying guards at the shipyard.

If attacked, mobs with a black leather armor and a custom-npc head (=Meele Pirates)
and mobs with a white leather armor, a bow and the custom-npc head (=Ranged Pirates)
will spawn. The fight would take place on the deck of the ship, the pirates will be 5-10 lvls under the players lvl.
When you win the fight, you will gain a small potion of xp, and your desired location will be reached instantly.
When losing the fight, you will be teleported back to Nemract and 1 SP will be lost.
(Thanks for the great idea to @vulplus)

Parties:
When being in a party while entering the ship, a sign (like the guild-ones) will appear asking you if you would like to take your partymembers with you. Each of them will receive a sign-message too, upon agreement they will be teleported to the same ship. Pirate-attacks also will be adjusted to the average-party level.
(Again, thanks vulplus)

Clan feature:
Clans will have the /guild ship command, accesable for Captain+ Ranks
It will open the same menu as the shipyard menu, with the difference that you can buy and customize a clan-ship. It would be handy for reaching and defending a territory far off all cities, like Tree Island. When someone starts a ship-travel via the "start-block" in the /guild ship menu, all players in the guild will receive a message similiar to the guild-war message. After a 5minute countdown, all clanmembers in the Nemract area will be teleported to the ship. traveling costs will be paid from the clan-bank, and the chance of getting attacked by pirates is increased by 10% in general.
Upon getting attacked by pirates, all guildmembers on board will be teleported to a larger version of the soloplayer-deck, similiar to parties, the pirate-level would be the average.

When the fight ends and all pirates are defeated, the guild will gain a small amount of xp, and the desired location will be reached instantly. Additionaly, all players will receive 1 [Stolen Pirate Whiskey], applying resistance and the "drunk-effect" for 20 seconds.
(Thanks to striker0614, for the base-idea)


Thanks for almost 300 Supporters & >75 likes!
It is kinda strange to read a suggestion you made ages ago :3

 

That link goes to a 404 page bcuz i deleted it. Just write @blankman to credit me

 

Ohw... thank you for your work!
Edited it

 

i supported this idea before, so i am going to support it again.

 

Thank you! :)

 

Can you say lag?

 

NIce! I supported this but one thing I think you should change is the time and price, The map should be in quandrants and if you are in a quandrant and sail to another place in the same quandrant then it should be cheaper and take less time. Also perhaps some sort of other thing to keep people entertained other than pirates would be nice (In case pirates do not spawn)

 

Well, 8 Supporters and 3 Cats!
Road to 175 :3

Im working on more random events, thanks for your feedback!

 

I definitely support something like this. Would be nice to enjoy the seas in something a little larger then a rowboat :)

 

11 Votes! :3
In just ~ 1 day, thank you guys!
Can we get back to ~ 175?

 

So when you travel on the ship does it go to black room an ocean view or just plain boat that you just cant controll and is faster

 

wat

 

like what happens at the travel time

 

It simulates a boat trip, in a ship (which is created for each player) with all the things a player bought in it (Bank, etc...) particles are used to create a good "ocean traveling feeling"

 

What about an actual ship being at nemract, where you go in like a normal boat?
And maybe to be able to just "hang out" in your ship would be nice, so if it was an nemract you could go out again and be teleported to nemract, and if you were at selchar you would be teleported there. Works for any place with a harbor.

 

Particle stuff, you can interact with your bought furniture (bank, bar... etc.) and enjoy the travel, sounds are included.
Maybe, tho, you will encounter Pirates...

 

Plus one supporter!

 

Thank you, Mr MoneySwag46 Sir :P

 

Why Thank You

 

Because of your Support plus :3
