... it's goin' fast *and*...!



We've been developing, and here's what's new.

*) Swimming. Characters now swim when in deep water. Swimming reduces phlegm, and if you run out you'll be knocked out. Don't run out.
*) Boat. There is now a rowboat available with Seamanship. Build it. Repair it with coal (will be tar whenever we have that.) Holds 4 objects and 2 passengers.

The boats will behave graphically better if you update your clients.

Enjoy while we continue to slave away at other things. Loftar is working on multiple server support, and I'm implementing some new stuff.

very nice!

well played =)

Time to start learning how to kill beavers properly now , I cant wait to play with boats and see the rivers turn into the highways they were intended to be - Lets see how long it takes before people realize it is a bad idea to build close to water. Who is going to keep count of all the swimming deaths?

Moved from a lake to the himalayas 1 hour ago and then the updates contains boats ...
Now I'm rooting for waterfalls.

Still nice update.

Me and Poseidon will be riding the blue highway! Thanks for the new toys.

Awesome.

Im a content person.. I love players being able to have content options.. Thanx for the update guys

Thanks for that! Now swimming must be considered very carefully.

I like the swimming animation, but he just pops up on top of the water and takes a nap when ko'd Very cool update though
