Anyone ever thought of taking a boat out to sea and kiling everyone? That would leave a nice black dot in the middle of the ocean.

On the location pic you can see boats....
Has anyone ever tried to navigate in formation?
Many ships, one black dot.
There has to be boats out there were people have starved.
If shipping were used more often it would eat away at the extra food in some places.
It would be nice if one could fish from a boat.
A small fire pit wouldn't take up that much room if it could be built.
Or hunting whales for oil and meat?

Yes, there are boats with everybody death already ... some quite far out, actually ...

But massive ship battles would be cool if the ship could shoot projectiles like cannons.

It would also be cool if ships could collide...like if too many try to dock at once...or if you just feel like smashing a small little canoe with your huge battleship...

That'd be cool as well. But if ships could alsomboard other ships we could make pirates and Cantr would get a lot more interesting. Not that is isn't allready. Cause Cantr is! Interesting I mean! Very interesting! And fun! *hopes Jos is not watching*

I'd prefer to see balistas and other medival type weapons rather than cannons, but yea ship battles would be good, boarding actions etc, but I think for that kind of thing to work best violence would need tweaking first.

Of course but I'd love the idea of pirates.

I'd really like to be able to board another boat out at sea, that would make a few things really interesting.

Another thing that would be cool, the ability to swim short distances, so that when a boat is at anchor you could swim over, climb the anchor rope, and pirate it...or you could do that between 2 ships...

The only thing with boats and that is it's really hard to navigate them, it's not like on the roads where you just click and let it do the work. With a boat you gotta know which lighthouses are where and stuff like that. I mean once you know it's all fine but if you don't know it makes it very hard, plus when I look at the little map and then go to change course it has different directions with a number beside them but you would think the top of the map would be north but it's not the top for me is west!
In other words we a compass to be implemented for boats and boats alone because land lubbers don't need them.Anyone seen a map which gives the directions sailing from one place to another?

That's also true. I was so confused when I was trying to navagate a boat. I couldn't do it to save my life.
