Hi my name is Stephen or otherwise known in the minecraft community as Commanderwolf97. but I think it would be cool for SMP a large boat that can hold more than one person. you could have two different types one with a cannon that shoots obsidian cannonballs and one that is more like a freighter. the ships wouldn't be too big but big enough for like 3 people. the cannon would take out one block and explosive cannonballs would take out 2 or 3 blocks ( this idea is rough and could be changed in any way) and Noch could add lots of things to accompany this thing such as new mobs (pirates?) and items (grappling hook?).
Sound like a cool idea. Maybe there could be speed boat and people would race instead of grief. :smile.gif: If Notch doesnt add it ask some mod majer to make it. Good idea though.
Problem is how the game currently works, some lag would cause some people to fall off or behind. Look at how the normal boats work right now. Not too well. Maybe for single player yeah I can see it. Just to have the luxury of having one.
But due to some complicated issues with SMP boats right now and server lag, and players around the world in general, it's not something to be expected for a very long time.
Good idea, been thought of before, but nonetheless.
