Zeppelins.

[LordPatrick]

How many people even know they exist in GK? I flew over Bomboria in one after I learned about them a few days ago; it seemed that no one knew they existed, and anyone who did, didn't care. Infact, two people tried to destroy my zeppelin, but thats besides the point.

I heard one can put a zeppelin in a sack of holding. Er, while that would be nice... I have no idea what to do.

My main problem is that I like zeppelins; I store my stuff somewhere, become light and drift around. Good fun. But they serve no good use! 5 boards, 4 small nuggets and 10 cloth to make one... the 10 cloth is the tough part, really. It says they are for going to other islands, but so are boats. And boats are easier to make, faster, and are much more difficult to destroy. They also don't have a weight limit.

it seems as of now the Zeppelin is useless. You *could* go to another island with it, yes, but you land it and someone will take it eventally. You can't have much weight on you, so it eliminates using them to speed up mining... and people destroy them in a couple hits. Especially people who have 5.0 movement speed and +10 weapons.

I have two suggestions; either make the zeppelin easier to make (Cloth isn't exactly easy for me to come by) or make the zeppelin attached to the user. Maybe, when the person lands, the Zeppelin goes into their inventory; without air in it, I don't think it would be *too* heavy. Perhaps, if someone 'destroys' the zeppelin, it makes the captain land, and the zeppelin goes into their inventory, and needs repairing (Perhaps 10 boards or so, or bringing it to someone?)

When the player wants to fly the zeppelin again, it could become equipped, and the player would have to pump it with air (somehow...).

I simply think that Zeppelins hold great fun and potential but are overly ignored... I'm sorry if any of my opinions have offended you in any way, as they are just that; opinions.
