-Variant Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Teamwork makes the dream work, as they say. Hey all, good morning/night as you read. This is something that's been on the mind for quite a while now, long ago we were introduced to the marble pieces, the first of the heavy objects kind. Honestly one of my favorite additions at the time! I had expected it to be a one-off sort of thing but RoT goes to show the concept is ever important, there's quite a few instances of heavy objects (Marble pieces, sculpting, Antlion boulders, and now giant veggies.) and I'm not sure if they plan on stopping. The main ways of getting them around seem to be boats and beefalo, (There are other ways however) though I had the idea of introducing more ways of easily lifting them around that'd be more... player/character specific! I've made a mock up of some general ideas in the spoiler. Let me know if this is something that has potential to be looked into or not, curious to see how everyone else feels on it. Spoiler In general every character could potentially have a unique way of lifting heavy objects around. Some examples would be Woodie's Weremoose form, the lifting machine Wilson mentions in his heavy objects quotes, Wolfgang in mighty form, and Big Bernie, ect ect. If not a new method for each character, something far simpler/more generalized could be nice, maybe multiple people can interact with a heavy object to help each other lift it together? It'd still be possible solo for sure, but it'd be a nice way to encourage some extra teamwork.

Zeklo Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 It'd be a bit weird imo if each character has a semi-easy way of lifting stuff—heck that's one of the perks of Walter with having Woby from the start. I wouldn't mind the 'group heaving' idea though. Dunno how feasible it would be, and I'd definitely want at least one other option for solo players. When it comes to crops specifically I'd love a wheelbarrow or something similar.

Frashaw27 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 While I don't think that all character need to have some new, unique lifing animation, I do think that Maxwell should have puppets to do menial tasks like this. The entire point of Maxwell making puppets is so that he doesn't have to do any or much menial work, and as such I think he would make puppets such things as carrying or rowing as those are also menial tasks that he has too big of an ego to do with an alternative present.

Mike23Ua Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 I just want to be able to use a Boat Winch on Dry Land (which you can if that hasn’t been patched out..) to pick up these new gigantic crops with the Winch and have it then dump said gigantic crop over into a Wheel Barrel so I can roll it around at a faster rate of speed. No more dropping my backpack on the ground to very slowly move around heavy objects or having to completely rely on Wolfgang the Strongman I mean with each update we get things like Watering cans and automated sprinkler systems.. (pretty sure the Spittle Fish fueled Boat Pump counts as a Sprinkler) So why can’t I have a Winch lift and place heavy things into a Wheel Barrel?

0xF741B84C Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I really like the idea that every character has their own animation for carrying things, but without any bonuses. I especially like the Wolfgang and Maxwell one since here can be applied the “different animation, but still going slow” without questioning why they are going so slow. Wes helps himself with balloons but still drags it uneasy on mimic rope.
