Probably too late but I'd still like a beefalo tool bag


Recommended Posts

Had this idea way back when we were still guessing about what the year of the beefalo would introduce. A Saddle bag "belt" for beefalos that can only carry beefalo accessories. 

Beefalos are great with a piggyback because they negate the speed penalty, right? But then we have to dedicate a few slots to the beef, whether its a brush, a bell, a war saddle or glossamer saddle, and a saddle horn. Obviously you can just not carry all of that but encouraging saddle swapping on the fly would be pretty cool. I also suggest requiring a bearger pelt to gate it behind a minimum of 1 year of progress so 3 slots don't sound as absurd.  

Bonus if it can carry grass/twigs and manure.

You don’t need a saddlehorn to swap saddles! The item effectively has no use. 

You can put a different saddle on a saddled beefalo and the original saddle falls off without losing durability, as if you used a saddlehorn on it.

a bell

A beefalo always follows the bell. So the whole point is you keep the bell on you so that your beefalo follows you. Keeping it in a saddle bag wouldn’t make any sense and I don’t know how that would work.

Do you use the brush/keep it on you once the beefalo is tamed? There’s really not much any need for it then.

The big thing is the saddlehorn. I don’t think klei would be willing to just remove it from the game but I don’t know what else should be done. It would make sense if swapping saddles without the saddlehorn costed durability but I’m not a fan of that and would have similar issues as the ones you’re having.

I prefer to drop the bell and not have it follow me. So id like to store it on the beef, I can just pick it up nothin major. Id still like to store the saddle in the beef.

I use the brush before a long fight sometimes to get its obedience to 100. Nothing big.

If nothing else id like for poop to auto deposit into the saddle bag. Maybe store grass in it.
