      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too!

      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Give donkeys/mules "back" slots

I love the addition of back slots, and I'm particularly fond of the woodcutter's backpack idea. Restrictions like these are fun because they lead to choices, because the player can only carry one huge item at a time. However there are times (such as when relocating a base) where carrying one barrel at a time is somewhat tedious.

 

Since it is somewhat difficult to find a donkey in TFC, I think it would be fair if they had, say, two "back" slots. Donkeys would then be a unique way to increase how many things you can move at once, and it would be a believable way to encourage their use as a beast of burden. Making Donkeys more valuable would also entice players to go exploring to find them, which is generally a good thing.

Are donkeys currently unable to carry barrels and large vessles because of not having back slots? overburdened?

I'm not entirely sure. I haven't been able to find a donkey in my world yet, and while I can spawn them in creative I can't seem to find a way to force Familiarity enough to open their "inventory". I haven't had much luck feeding them, either, I'm not sure if their hunger is going down too slowly or what.That said, I suspect they are currently able to, without overburdening, which is probably a little unbalanced.

Hey look the op referenced my idea, I'm glad everyone likes that ^^Personally, love the concept of more back items, and utilizing a donkey or mule to suck a purpose has already been brought to my mind, incedently I actually have a family of donkeys nearby in my first world I've been playing so far. I don't know if they actually have "back" slots as much as they do just have chest ones.

Think he means the addition of giving them back slots in place of chests, that way they can carry things like 2 barrels for example. That's just my guess though.

Ahh, ya I interpreted it as add a back slot along with the chests. I like replacing the chests with barrels idea better, it solved the inventory problem and would allow you to carry liquids. ya cool.

Serves the same function as the chests, with the addition of sealed barrels if needed. Still have the active inventory space too. ^^
