No waffling. Straight to the point:
4 ways to travel - air, land, sea, portals.
Air:
Movecraft!
Airports in each town.
Planes, airships, balloons, etc.
Need a licence to fly-
Private: Transport yourself and friends, land at home. Cannot be used for income.
Commercial: Use for business. Transport others. Only land at airport.
Monthly charge on licence. Small amount for private, bigger for commercial, depending on business.
Airways are protected. No PvP.
Land:
Paths and trains.
Paths are pretty self explanatory. Free.
Roads are protected from PvP.
Trains (mine carts)
Stations in every town.
Separate lines depending on destinations (have to see where towns are located first)
Mine carts stores at station, take as you please?
No PvP on tracks.
Sea:
Movecraft!
Every town has a harbour
Boats, yachts, ships etc.
Waterways mapped out (and created) and marked (with torches)
Same licensing as air travel
No PvP
There's something else in my mind, but it's currently eluding me...
Portal:
Stargates!
One in each city
A nexus of stargates.
Only one official one in each city connected to the central nexus. No personal ones.
Free transport.
I can probably think of more point for these, but my head hurts.
Also, excuse the poor writing. I'm on my phone at 8am
Please, read and discuss!
