Hi ^_^

How about adding a cart with big inventory that can be pulled by an Ox/Bull .It'd be reasonable if it has it's issues , like it needs rare materials to be built, requires level 100 carpentry and it has lower speed than a horse cart but has more stamina.

I just think a bull or cow should be able to be hitched to a horse cart. It should just be slow, like walking speed slow. But the stamina would be good, like hardy warhorse good.

The whole purpose of the Ox cart is to have more weight.

i can see where you are comming from. Being able to move more items at a time, perhaps at a slower pace, sounds reasonable.

At the same time, Horse carts currently have 3000 as a weight limit AND fits other containers (4 filled wardrobe's add 2000 capacity) with the 'put in cart / pull from cart' options. So in theory you could fit an entire warehouse in there, essentially making this equal if not better capacity wise to an actual building that cannot be moved at all.

So with the latter calculation, i would have to disagree with your request. Simply because the current warehouse and storing options are not balanced to allow such a change.

More space will make everyone happy. I don't think anyone enjoys spending more time on transportation. Even in big guilds Guildmates aren't always available to help transfer stuff or everyone is busy doing whatever. It will also help the hardworking guild foragers be more productive and more drawn/motivated to forage because they will have to do fewer transporting trips of ores and goodies. As a carpenter I'd be happier to be able to carry say 10 logs instead of 6 per trip. It'd also be more exciting and lively to have more variety in the game.

I'm not stating i do not like the idea. i am simply stating that the storing system will need an overhaul if this is implemented.

ox cart with 5000 stone as limit and capacity for 10 logs, would remove the need for any warehouse to be build ever. As it is probably more space efficient and you can move it if the area is full or not suited.

Let's place try placing it again in the here and now:
A horse cart, has a weight limit of 3000.
A horse cart, can carry 6 logs.

6 logs from a high quality oak, has a combined value of 7.200 wood.
7.200 into boards or billets already surpasses the capacity of a normal warehouse by 1.200, and combined with the 3.000, will total to a storing capacity of 10.200 stones, which is 2/3rds of the capacity of a large warehouse.

a storage of 10200 stones on space of 1x2 compared to 5000 on 3x4 or 15000 on a 5x9 is completely unbalanced as it is for processed resources.

Now, lets do this with an ox cart as you suggest, in the here and now.

10 logs from high quality oak, has a combined value of 12.000 wood.
This alone is 2.5 times the capacity of a regular warehouse and 4/5th the storage of a large warehouse.

Now we add the regular carrying weight of its inventory at 5.000.
This will total at 17.000 (17k) stones in weight. and is 2.000 (2k) more than a large warehouse.

As it is a 1x2 area (probably) it will fit 6x on the space of a warehouse which will equal 102.000 (102k) of processed billets or boards, and 22 times on the space of a large warehouse which equals 374.000 stones of processed woods.

I hope the math here shows you that this request as it is now, with the current game mechanic, is completely unrealistic.

oh, i forgot about 1 thing in my calculations.
You are able to stack carts too, so do this x3 -5, depending on your stacking skills.

a total of 1.122.000 to 1.870.000 storage capacity compared to 15.000 for a large warehouse.

Well they can increase the warehouse storage and as I mentioned earlier the Ox cart shouldn't be easy to acquire.
