Helpfile for use of Caravans

Post by Velius » Wed Nov 07, 2007 1:18 am

I don't understand how to use the caravans :oops:

Would it be a good idea to make a helpfile for others who also don't understand how to use caravans to travel?

Thanks

There was talk of one being written.
Madness does not always howl. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "Hey, is there room in your head for one more?"

In short:

a) get to the caravan field in your starting town
b) check the signs to see which caravan you need to use, and when it departs
c) buy a token

A token means a free trip, from anywhere to anywhere. You can give the token to someone else at this point if you want (here's a free ticket).

----

d) go there BEFORE the caravan departs
e) give the token to the seller
f) wait in the room with the caravan
g) enter the caravan (go up) as it comes in

Do not leave the caravan at this point - if you exit it, you will need to get another token.

----

h) wait in the caravan till you get to your destination

Travelling with other people will reduce the boredom.
You might also meet some interesting people while travelling (PCs are not the only travellers in the world - though the NPC comings might depend on whether or not a bug has been fixed).
