Pontoon bridge

Pretty simple: You connect dinghys to make a Pontoon bridge.
This would make a way to create bridges over great water pools and also give a real use for dinghys.
This kind of bridge should be rather (time-) expensive but robust so it isn't destroyed instantly

 

Not exactly sure why this is in Suggestions instead of Classes And Mechanics since it isn't a suggestion, just you saying that people should put dinghies together more.

 

@Galen ^^^^^^^^

 

there should be a mechanic to fix dinghies so you can build on them / drive with a catapult over them etc.

 

Oh, okay.
That'd be interesting, but I'm not sure if it'd be easy to do.
But maybe so. It would give meaning to a Water map other than "WARBOAT!" or "TRAPBLOCKS" or just plain "RAGE!".

Galen, disregard, totally misunderstood the OP.

 

Well your suggesting when dinghys connect they make a bridge? And this bridge welds together?

 

yes

 

Well this seems like a lot of work for devs and I'm not sure they are looking to add stuff like this,

They want to balance the game not add more stuff to balance

 

Not sure it is necessary, but it is very cool. Geti has mentioned the idea of upgradable boats before, but I'm not sure he will add them, or at least not until things settle down and he has more spare time.

 

I've always liked the idea of placing a catapult on a boat! The only real problem I see is:
1. We're gonna be able to remove the bridge if we want to?
2. Could trap players below it.
3. Sometimes, I have trouble getting back on a boat as a builder.

 

1. you would be able to break the boats or to remove the connection between them.
2. small gaps between the boats, you would still be able to drive over
3. that's a boat problem in general (maybe ladders like on the war boat)

 

Hmm, I don't think Geti seems to want to add in more content to the game, Just releases of new builds [tweaks].
So I doubt that he'll add this into the game. Although, I know that boats need added priority but I dont think that this is the right way to go about it.
