Fast Travel

[Nanook 2]

((Ok, so I have my soulstone all set up at Khaz too get me there whenever I need to, one problem I can't get back. Khaz is in the middle of no where, so I was thinking, once you have your soulstone stone all set up is there anyway we could set up a fast travel back to spawn or where ever and not have it leading back as too not give away our whereabouts. I know donators can have multiple soul stones so they have no real need of this but at the moment non-donators have to kill themselves to get back to any other civerlization (unless they can remember the way back and be arsed to walk it). If this is possible great, if not I'll have to pester my mom to make the donation in my name which will not happen no matter how much I beg.

Any opinions (especially Kings) or solutions I'm missing are valid.

Though I am not a dawrf, I must ask. Why to spawn? You can just link it to another city rather than the spawn location []

[Nanook 2]

Well spawns kind of a base to travel to all the different locations in Asulon but I used spawn as a example not saying it couldn't link to other nations (probably not the Orcs at the moment).

Also keep in mind that horses only travel 400 blocks, and there aren't any oceans around spawn for boat travel. So you'd probably use up all of your allocated horses to get to spawn. []

Then other races could TP into the city!

Give away your whereabouts. It'll be better for your nation in the long run. Hidden or hard to find nations die, look at the Vale prior to Petyr's revival, the dwindling orcs, the ghost cities of Normandor and Elandriel. If it's hard to get to, it slowly dies, if it's hidden, you're doomed. No point in hiding your city from RPers on an RP server.

Besides, the minecart system would be located just outside the city to prevent enemies from using it to enter the city. The advantage with the minecart system is that people can travel to the capital, without knowing really where it is (since you just travel underground).

[Lago 2572]

Could work, provided it is very, very obvious where the minecarts are, and you make sure that there are always minecarts at each end.

I don't think they would need minecarts as it will be a TP based fast travel though.

[Ined 4]

Yeah. In RP we would use minecarts, but the actual stations would just be a little tunnel with some tracks and then just a teleporting area at the end of the tracks or something like that.

[Admiral_Ackbarf 67]

I think a minecart-type transportation would work perfectly. The carts can lead very close to the capital but not completely inside.

I still prefer an actual minecart track that would be free rather then a TP based one that needs money.

That would be extremely expensive to build
