Hello fellow Theonians!
Just wondering if there is any interested developer who'd be able to make a ferry port (small, medium and large...no pressure lolz) and some working ferries that'd actually transport people from one island to another. Kind of like the bus transport thingy lol. I have like two small islands far, far away from the main island. I'd love for this to be in time for the Centurial 400th year celebration (I sound so North Korean ahahaha)... No pressure, if interested, then your welcome. Idc about credit. You can take all of theit credit. The idea, trademark and whatever legal rights lmao.
Thanks in advance!

I could do it. Just give me about a week, it'll be somewhat easy to do.

How will you do it? I am thinking it will work similarly to your trams, but with a ferry terminal instead of a tram station, and with transperant "rails" that goes over water.

Well I've run into a problem. Roads cannot be placed on water, so that needs to change for my idea to work.

Maybe you can use transperant bridges.

Well, you could have
and
Code: Select all
"bridge frames":[null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null,null]
.

How would I get the road to connect to buildings then?

Build two tiles on land. One for the road, one for the ramp which would be invisible.

Suggestion, use the water texture for the road. I also thought on making a plugin similar to this. Well, let me help too.

I have no clue how to do animation, so if you can map the water animation to the road then I can move on with coding the rest of this thing.

Use the water texture and put it on the road. The road will have... Let's say "flag:boats". Means, that someone will provide boat textures that has a .json for a car. If you don't understand... I'll say it again later
