Upcoming: Water update

Quote from Meltron

I don't know anything more than you guys and of course I would like to be wrong. But actually it could be that the update simply needs a lot of effort and is therefore taking longer Again, not saying that it isn't going to be awesome, but the water might not be in the condition you want it to be yet.

Naturally. I'm expecting the update to be on the lower end to gradually be polished into the higher-end stuff. Everything simply needs to be put into place, yet in mine (and possibly others) getting all to excited seeking the late-production content :P.

I'm being both patient & impatient. I'm wanting to colonize these islands. This wait is becoming harder the more it dips into May. I want to get back into Rising World.

Day 35: Still no water, my friends and i are slowly dying off. Dehydration set in last week, are we're all withering away to nothing. We pray that our merciful god, red51, will soon bless us with the water that we so desperately need.

The great Red one has been away for a week. Surely he is high up in the mountains, stirring the rain clouds of creation and shall return to us with bountiful blessings. Nay only recently have we cultivated the watermelon. May its sustenance sustain us in these dry times. We wait anxiously for thy return.

You should've grown some watermelons in the desert.

maybe a watermelon forest!?

Watermellon forest? Interesting idea. There's a lua script that spawns random vegetation. I've been meaning to give that a try.

Last I heard from Red on Steam is that it should be early next week or the week after. Keep chewing on those watermelons!

*fizzle fizzle fizzle* Water and servers do not mix.

This looks nice to build.

Your pets will be happy, as we see evident last time your cats had a bath.
Our cat's clearly are overjoyed and can't wait for the water.

I'm actually going to build that in my world, more so when we have some type of boat to make use of. Give me a canoe or a papyrus boat then I'll go full steam into making numerous canals, where appropriate. I also love how that canal appears

I want to stop harping about boats, yet they're necessary.

Atleast papyrus is closer to reality than bamboo! ;-p

Hopefully Papyrus is closer because it would make things partially easier. You can simply carve a damn canoe out of a damn tree also. It shouldn't be that hard....

I had to Google up bamboo to find the Vietnamese & Thai making funky and neat boats out of them. One was a basket boat (bamboo boat <- Image search), with another being a slightly 'luxurious' take on them.

-> Tourist (Vietnamese) river boat:

From what I can see you'll need bamboo, some wooden furniture, and some specific stone carvings for the roofing. Then again, there's variants so you can get away with basic bamboo everything. You'll simply need wooden furniture, and then anything more complex & fancy on the variations. Red51 could use this to experiment with storage chests & everything else moving to see if the game can handle moving storage chests. This could be the 'prototype' for everything onward for all the other vehicles and such. It can hold torches/lanterns, among other things. Simple, yet complex at the same time. It's meant to hold many entities also so that should be interesting to see for those long journeys on rivers and similar.

If we do get this, I'm expecting this after a simple wooden boat, canoe, and/or a Papyrus boat. Red51, you can blame Mojang for me constantly harping you about this. Blame Mojang for failing to give variety to their boats; Wurm Unlimited/Online knowing how to do boats.
