[suggestion] Walls for the sea?


Recommended Posts

So we can - for example - cordon off a cove and create fish/jellyfish farms or protect resources, herd ballphins close to shore, etc. I was thinking something like a "net wall" that work like sandbags in that they'd degrade and need time/resources to maintain them for balance.

not only should there be a sea wall, but a pier that you could build out into the water so that you could walk out some distance into the ocean.  if placed correctly you could harvest certain sea items (seaweed/mussles/sea traps/jellys) by walking out onto the pier.  (maybe with that add the ability to harvest & replant certain sea items for farming).  there would be a limit to how long a pier could be, so you couldn't just build out forever, but if two islands were close enough, you could connect them with a pier.

yeah... something like this:

there would be a post that you could build and place in the water... this would function like a wooden wall on the water, but then you could place wood flooring (or some new craftable equivalent) on top of the posts and create a pier out into the shallow water that you could walk on.

this could be used to create a harbor / cove type of area where you could build ocean farms of some sort (assuming we had the ability to relocate seaweed / mussels / wobsters).  it could also be used to connect nearby islands with small bridges.  it would need to be restricted to shallow water only and perhaps it would be limited in that you could walk over it but couldn't build anything (or maybe just certain things) on top of the pier.  also maybe they would be damaged easily during certain seasons so would need constant repair & upkeep to balance it out.

but i just think about the crazy gigantic bases that people create (in non shipwrecked) after 100's on days and i image an island/ocean themed version of those bases including multiple islands & bridges & harbors & piers and all kinds of crazy stuff like that.

 

I know it's an old topic, but I want to mention one mod that got released some days ago which makes it possible to replace sea with sand. So you can build your own islands/peers. It's not 100% working yet. You have to save and quit once to use the new land and can't place boats on new shores, but anything else seem to be just fine.

I think it's a really cool mod that opens many oportunities to get ceative!
