AnonymousKoala Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 As pretty much everyone who met Packim know, he can't catch up to you most of the time at least. Now, it would have been okay-ish if he didn't just suddenly stop when you're too far from him. Chester didn't stop, so whenever you did stop to camp for the night, he would eventually find you. There's also the solution of making him scale to your speed, and making him teleport when he's too far. But whatever solution is chosen, Packim needs to be fixed. I took Chester with me whenever I needed to travel, but Packim is litearly the opposite. You end up making him fire packim, leaving him in one place, and never taking him with you.

PanAzej Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Agreed. Just agreed, no more needs to be said. Hopefully we get this next update. And damn fix to RoG mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you can't deny there's a lot of balancing and bug fixes left to be done, not to mention Sea Combat being...horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can crash in so many ways. Balancing? Not sure about it right now, but sure. I haven't played SW a lot lately, but better balance is always welcome... I'm still kinda disappointed that we got mostly reskins of the main game. Monkey reskins, pigman reskins, merm reskins, and all that stuff. No adventure mode. It's still a nice game, though. I'll play more of it, when it doesn't crash every 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of the reskins for mobs(If not all of them) at least get some extra, new, cool ability. Like, Boars aggro when you're just near them for too long, monkeys steal from the ground and cant open containers, unlike splumonkeys(as well as are befriendable), fishermerms are passive and are in fact great allies, crabs turn into shifting sands, etc. Reskins of craftables though pretty much end up as reskins, or a lesser version, which I am less of a fan of.

Asparagus Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 IDK, Packim has a lot of advantages as well as being a loyal and durable combat partner when fed enough obsidian... I just think the current buffs he has is already good and balanced... Pros Can go on both land and sea Is a moving storage unit can be upgraded to either a moving storage unit with more inv. space than usual a storage unit that can engage in combat Cons Eats fish based food items Cooks raw food (which is a bit of a neutral perk?) and burns cooked foods to ashes Being upgraded to having extra inventory slots requires a constant fish supply (which is really not that hard to get) Gets dumbfounded and stays put when losing sight of his precious fishbone when the player as upped his speed by means of a Walking Cane and/or Shark Fin Hat(I keep forgetting what it's called) But, there is a mod out there that can mitigate this for players who do not want to keep leaving Packim behind: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=598101903&searchtext=packim Basically, you can give a suitable fish item to the Fish Bone and Packim will be teleported to your location with a "poof" hope this alleviates the stress of losing him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WillPwn4Food Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 What's strange is that when I'm sailing on coffee he keeps up no problem... I don't understand how his tracking lua works but there's something fishy going on. Blasting off with an armoured boat, walking cane, and coffee while riding waves all the way to my destination, I always can count on him to arrive shortly after. When mild season rolls around and I'm sailing at non-wreckless speeds again, though, he literally ALWAYS gets left behind. I don't get it. Can confirm that packim teleport mod is a great one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voyager156 Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 I recommend using this mod - just set the higher speed: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=588818955&searchtext=packim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure about anyone else, but Chester stops for me when I get too far away from him (which tends to happen when I'm using a Walking Cane). It happens a lot, and it's incredibly frustrating to have to either halt my progress to wait for him to catch up, or backtrack to pick him up when he stops.
