Personal caravan deployment radius in Alpha-2.

Deploying a personal caravan in Alpha-2.

It's important for me to find a place that's relatively obscure so as not to attract any unwanted eyes. – Steven Sharif

Personal caravans prepared and launched at caravan master NPCs located at caravansary service buildings that are present at Dorf (Stufe 3) or higher nodes.

When you want to launch a caravan you have must first have a caravan that's constructed at the caravansary. – Steven Sharif

• Once a caravan is constructed it will be hosted at that caravansary. Players will be able to select from a list of available caravans via a UI screen, which will show the available storage compartments for each caravan.

• Cargo for shipment is stored at the caravansary, not in a player's inventory. Stored cargo is visible via the warehouse UI.

• All types of cargo can be shipped in caravans. The only constraint is available size (in the Tetris inventory system).

• Once a caravan is constructed and loaded with cargo, it is in a launch-ready state and can be launched in the caravan master UI whenever the caravan owner is ready. Launching the caravan will place a caravan item in the owner's inventory.

You're going to have a little caravan item and when you right-click it you're going to be in deployable mode for you to be able to place that- it's a representation that you're summoning the caravan so that people around you know that you are launching a caravan. – Chris Justo

• Once launched, caravan owners will see a visible radius around the node, beyond which the owner can begin deployment of their caravan. Deployment takes approximately two minutes by default, but can hastened through upgrades to the caravansary building.
  • Previously the concept for launching a caravan involved an overhead map UI of the node. The developers moved away from this in favor of a more immersive in-world approach.

• Personal caravans can also be summoned in the open-world from caravansaries in nearby nodes. This will also begin a deployment process that will take an amount of time based on the distance from the caravansary, the caravan's components, and any benefits or buffs from upgrades, node policies, or relics.

• Personal caravans are capable of transitioning to/from naval caravans.

• Previously it was stated that personal caravans can be launched from any point of storage.
