| Cantankerous, posted on Wed Dec 11 11:46:37 2024 | | Posted by: Kake | | Category: Waterways (domain pages) | In a few weeks' time, we will be changing all bathroom furniture so that the "fill" command will only work when the furniture item is "plumbed in", i.e. placed as furniture. The reason for this change is that the existence of portable items providing unlimited access to water creates issues with balance that make it harder to (a) maintain existing systems that use or are affected by water and (b) implement new systems that use or are affected by water.
We are aware that this change on its own would make dragon-wrangling on the sailing mission become substantially more annoying and fiddly, and so we have upgraped the SS Unsinkable's water tanks to compensate. Specifically, you can now use a hammer to "decant" these tanks into fire buckets or other vessels.
Please try out this new functionality, get yourselves accustomed to using it, and make sure all your sailing friends know about it. You have at least two weeks from the date of this blog post before the bathroom furniture change goes live, but please don't leave it until the last minute to switch over.
In other sailing news: Niknax has sourced a few new items for his shop, and will be stocking them in rotation with his existing items from now on.
