Fishing!

Post by Hrosskell » Wed May 01, 2013 1:47 am

After a recent visit to Gundarlun and purchasing some fisherman-esque objects (a net and a gaff) I realized I couldn't actually fish with them. I haven't fished outside of Leilon in a while, but it made me curious as to how our current fishing works.

Do we have areas for different types of fish to occur? Do we have different working fishing implements? Would it be hard to integrate these things? I could see this adding some unique flavor for islander/sea-folk types, and some awesome recipes could come from the coded cooking.

As far as I know, only fishing rods are coded to work with fishing and you need to be in a water area in order to fish outside of Leilon which has special coding. Fish types are random between around three fish food types.

Correct, there are two fishing pole objects in the game and they both work for fishing in any water sector room on the surface. The nets are just nets.
