Boat: Difference between revisions

To have a [[Blockhead]] put a boat in the water, it must first be selected in the [[Inventory]]. Tapping on or just above the surface of a body of [[water]] will place the boat there. Tapping on the boat will bring up a menu with two options.

The first option is 'Remove' and will return the boat to the Blockhead's Inventory. The second option is 'Embark' and will place the Blockhead in the boat.

To travel in a boat, tip the device in the direction you want the Blockhead to go. (e.g. Tip to the left to go left.) Speed is controlled only imprecisely by the degree of tilt. Level the device to stop.

Tapping outside the boat will cause the Blockhead to climb out and go there, leaving the boat where it is.

Running aground (boating into a solid block at the same level as the block's upper surface) can make the Blockhead disembark and may return the boat to Inventory.

As of [[Game updates/20131010|version 1.4]], a Blockhead may [[Fishing Rod|fish]] while in a boat.

Boats cannot cross [[ice]] or other solid [[blocks]].

Prior to version 1.4, a Blockhead in a boat would not pick up floating [[item]]s even when passing through their space.

[[Shark]]s cannot attack Blockheads in a boat, but they may chase a boat.
