Description
Are you tired of floating around on a makeshift raft? Are you still waiting for your flax field to grow? Or do you just not feel like building a huge sailboat just to get across a lake? This mod adds a sporty birchbark canoe that's perfect for your early-mid game transport or exploration needs. No need to use those awful crude oars anymore either, this mod adds craftable woodtyped carved oars that you can use to row around in style.
The canoe can carry up to 4 players or 1 player, 2 reed baskets, and a clay vessel or chest. It also has a rack on the side to store your carved oar. The birchbark canoe has the same travel speed as the sailboat and the raft. The birchbark canoe can be picked up and portaged in an empty bag slot.
The carved oar can be used with the vanilla raft if you're so inclined, and the crude oar can likewise be used with the birchbark canoe. The crude oar cannot, however, be stored in the bark canoe.
If you have suggestions, issues, or localizations you want me to include in the mod (with credit to you of course) please put them in the forum thread! https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/13586-canoe-mod/
Crafting
Canoe
Crafting a birchbark canoe is simple. Just combine 6 logs of any type you like, 10 birch logs, 4 portions of pitch glue, 4 coils of rope, and an axe in the crafting grid. 10 durability will be taken off of the axe and you'll have a shiny new canoe!
Carved Oar
The carved oar is crafted almost exactly like the crude oar, requiring 2 units of rope and 2 logs of any type, and a knife with at least 4 durability.
- add a few different types of small watercraft, kayaks, umiaks, coracles, sampans, etc.
- tweak and tune the rowing animations
- transition from a content to a code mod, allowing use of the game's shipbuilding system and control over a bunch of hardcoded stuff like boat speed
- add some more customization options like decals and decorations
- add a slightly faster (and quite expensive) small endgame watercraft
