You can add normal combat /pking by creating an instanced scene of two boats in proximity to another. Either at a distance or adjacent. Then players can navigate to approach or escape by using options at the tiller/wheel. Make the boat actions on a significantly slower game clock, like 20 ticks per boat action, then they can reasonably implement boat movements for a limited engagement scenario. The actions can be extremely limited because it isn't necessary to articulate every possible combination of two boats in proximity to eachother.

Interesting... very interesting. OP (or anyone) please check out my thread about "keeping old school RS old" and keeping any new content as NEW AREAS that do not change or to be strict interact with standard gameplay (on land I suppose) in any way whatsoever and tell me what you think. As you can see from it I am not opposed to the idea of new content such as Kourend Island simply that it ADD and not CHANGE (as in keep the integrity/content we know and love in OSRS the same, save perhaps an NPC or two and instead just add to the map essentially.).

Just some friendly, good-spirited criticism..

Tier 1: Small rowboats

Built at 1 construction, requires around 50 regular planks


Can hardly build a functional chair. Builds a rowboat instead. :D

Tier 5: Engine boat

...

Another must be shovelling coal into the furnace. If they do not, or do it too slowly, damage will be incurred to the ship. The faster coal is shovelled the faster the ship will go. There may be another player also shovelling coal.


Oh yay, CoalScape! Sign me up, cap'n. :P

Make the Mini-game or the start of the quest req. you to have 50 construction and 50 smithing..

Would this Skill allow you to have extra storage on your boat? Is this some kind of magical air Boat that would follow(invisibly) you on the surface? I think this would be an awesome update, to have your own personal Floating Tavern with some storage space. Hire your butler to fly your Mobile Tavern around from your house? He will follow you all over the Surface of Gielinor.

Make a whistle emote making the butler drop you a Rope Lift or Elevator cage if your construction level can improve your ride. I think this would be an awesome idea to travel the surface from above with your party.

If it hasn’t been said already, I’ll start with saying I think it would be pretty cool. I think the possibilities created from this are endless. I didn’t read all you have to say, so apologies if you, or anyone already said it, but I immediately thought of how cool it would be to have ship battles. Maybe you could board the enemies ship during the fight to finish them off. Maybe their could be a shipyard in the game where you could build and customize your ship to your specifications in a fashion similar to building your home. Maybe the battles could involve giving players the ability to create their own fortresses, and people are tasked with conquering, or repelling the invading forces. I just think your idea is really good all together, and I hope it becomes a reality Long live RuneScape
