(I moved this to the new forum)
I would like to propose that settlers from this day forth should be able to build walls on water tiles
Currently if you decide to form a town seperated by water it will look like this:
If you were able to build walls on water tiles, your town could look like this:
The wall itself could look something like this, please don't mock my artwork )
Making these walls available, will also make it possible to protect future buildings that would have to be built next to water tiles such as a watermill or fishing with a net over time. (i don't know if such a building will ever exist or if you will be able to fish with nets, but consider it an added bonus should similar things be implemented)
To avoid exploits. i would propose that a waterwall could only cover 4 tiles of water from each side. Imagine clicking "build waterwall" This will bring up a sub-menu of 1tile 2tiles 3tiles 4tiles walls to choose from. The requirement of placement is that it would have to connect to a wall on land to be placed. So if a river is 5 tiles wide, you could build a 2tiles and a 3tiles from each side of the river. (all these tile-numbers are examples, same with the name waterwall, I'm quite certain you the developers can come up with something that fits)
Oh and because of the iron thingies under the wall it should not be as easy to construct these as normal walls. You would have to use some iron bars and stuff
Thoughts?
