So... using a boat is now mandatory?

[Akrimus]

The boat has been changed to be more friendly to solo use. Okay, but it's still very awkward to control. Ironite has been replaced with Sharpstone, okay. But... what the hell? One piece now weighs 15 instead of 1? We need dozens of this resource or more. It's impossible to transport it on your own in the quantities we need. So you're forcing us to bring this awkward boat to resource clusters to load it up and then haul the resources back? Can you imagine how unfun that is? I like the game itself and have good impressions, but I don't want to play the demo anymore. And there are other biomes there. Do I have to transport stuff across the map on a boat? No thanks.

In our current playtests, we've decided to add some sharpstones in the new biome! But yes - currently you do have to haul and rely on the boat storage to haul things across the map. BUT! Eventually we will have TP from Spirit Anchor to Spirit Anchor (but not progression items).

We're continuously trying to find a balance between boat, skimmer and storage. We hope you will give it another try once we find a solution that makes the most sense.

Why not just make it possible to raise and lower the boat sails with W/S from the rudder as well / instead of the main sail, I played with a friend so it wasn't an issue but for solo play would make it easier, most other games that have rafts/boats use this method.
