@Nordfriese. What about the possibility to destroy ferries or have decay if they are not used? Currently, ferries are the only objects in Widelands that can't be removed. Top Quote |

Ok, implementing this. What should their unemployed lifetime be? 10 minutes? Top Quote |

Has anyone tested setting a target quantity for them. rather then having them rotting around I'd ike to have them produced just in time. Top Quote |

10 minutes seems to be a good.
This could be incorporated with the decay Nordfriese is implementing. Having only the target quantity wouldn't solve the problem that they stay on the map forever. One more question. Currently, the production time is 20 seconds + the time it takes to deploy the ferry. Could we increase the production time a little? maybe 30 seconds? Top Quote |

I added a 10s working anim to the shipwright while he´s building the ferry Top Quote |

The ferry-branch has finally been merged into master. For those interested in testing install the latest flatpak or download the latest development builds for macOS or Windows. Top Quote |

But keep in mind that the flatpaks are not compiled with the debug switch. So, your output will not be as detailed as it could be. Top Quote |

As far as I understand the idea behind waterways, the map author can set the max length for waterways. We need to somehow tell the user what the waterway length for a specific map is. On Archipelago Sea the max length is 2. But I tried to build a waterway with 4 units and was wondering why I couldn't connect 2 flags and only got the cancel road building window. I first thought this was a bug. And I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who will think so. Top Quote |

+1 could be done in map choice window and should be explained in a tutorial. Top Quote |
