Glad to see people are getting so much use out of something that was deliberately designed to be as awful as possible. There was a breif discussion about adding other metal-less land vehicles like chariots and and larger carts, but they never progressed farther.
I'm surprised how many of you like it. I've actually gotten around to building a few in game now, and they are every bit as slow as they are designed to be. The reason I made them that bad was to get the concept of a metal-less land vehicle past RD and in the game, and then, once it was in, use it as a springboard to get other metal-less land vehicles in game. Some RD members were opposed to the idea and it's effect on the iron economy that cantr has, but they didn't have anything more to object to about it than that, because I designed the cart to be slower than walking.
Enjoy it for everything it can be abused for!
Reality was never my strong point.
yes there is that
