Being able to make more than 6 cannons(since throwing the cannon to a new location makes set ups hard to do. (anyways you have to load the cannon balls)<br \/>\n 6. An elevator!!! if you could make this then transporting items up to the top of the tower would be easier<br \/>\n since i mass build my cannons in about a minute.<br \/>\n 7. changing how to get onto ladders, i feel its really hit or miss if you get on by hitting the up arrow, cant you do a automatic grab if you press up when you are on it?<br \/>\n 8. also creating a big wall maybe like a 2&#215;1 or a 2&#215;2, adjusting the costs accordingly?<br \/>\n 9. being able to scavange better stuff from the ships? like a cannon dropping out? or ammo?<br \/>\n 10. Creating a health system for the cannons and walls with the ability to repair by just putting in more materials. or a destroy option<br \/>\n 11. make wood more useful , when i first saw the bridge thing, it looked cool<br \/>\n 12. last ditch weapon? rocket launcher if all the cannons are killed 1 hit from meteor and airships coming?<br \/>\n 13. an ammo count of your cannon balls, you still have to pick them up, but i usually stack them in 1 area,, so they overlap and i dont know how many i have maybe 6 maybe 5?<br \/>\n 14. sea pirates, so you would have to protect from above and below,<br \/>\n 15. respawning fish in the sea so theres more health, they dont respawn, so i get stuck later around 10k since i get hit by the airships when moving my cannons.","spam":"N"},{"author_name":"snowyowl","time":"May 16, 2010 10:52 am","epoch":1274025120,"text":"The fish do respawn, actually.
