Simply beautiful. Easy fast little-travel to some points. In addition to Teleportation Services is so good to wonder around the map with immersive ways.
OK I endorsed it. The idea is really cool, it's very practical, and my char does not get wet all the times. However, if one could make it actually move, that would be really sweet. Like it is now, it is not very immersive... :-)
+1 for a great idea!! I will happily use as is. :-)
But me too I would like to encourage you to make the boat travel in real time. Include an .ini file where the player can set the speed of the travel. 0=Fast-travel as is now, 1=same speed as normal swimming (default), 2=fast swimming... anyways something in this direction.
Attach some sound, maybe re-use some of the default water gurgling sounds. :-)
I love this idea. I use the rowboats mod that makes all the rowboats able to be piloted, but I like one that automatically carries me.
This brings me to the second point, would it be possible to expand this idea to making whole ships that automatically carry passengers from one city to another? there could even be several ships going and coming from all of the cities connected by water. I have Sides_sailing, but would love to take a boat ride with the computer controlling.
Thank you Emm. I ran it through TES4 Edit, and I was surprised at how many dirty edits it found. I know I did not mistakenly move that many objects, etc... So I suppose what they say is right, and the CS causes most of them.
A minor update, adding one more crossing between Memorial Cave and the South East Sewer Exit. Plus some window-dressing on the new docks, adding lights, more crates, barrels, etc...
On the question of compatibility, I can only say that I know it is compatible with the Bravil Internal Docks mod. The others maczopikczo mentioned I cannot say one way or another. But as some of the docks added are within cities, I imagine that mods that drastically change them would be incompatible.
The boats do not travel in real time. In fact, this mod was inspired by a mod that let you pilot rowboats. I found it so impossible to control that I wanted something brainless instead. The boats are just activators, you click on one and it teleports you to its opposite number. Just like a door to a new cell would.
I love swimming too, and the Jewel of the Rumare is usually on the top of my characters lists of things to get just so they can breathe underwater. But my current character insists that she is not getting her velvet gown and corset wet! So I had to make these boats for her instead.
Thank you for the link bencebence! I was thinking that having some real time elapse while in transport would be more realistic. I just was not sure about how to make that happen. You link might be just what I am looking for.

I've wanted something simple like this for a long time, simply for roleplaying purposes, and this mod is great. Thanks for making it.

Thanks for the Mod!
Just a friendly reminder though to clean your mod with Tes4Edit before uploading as there are a large number of dirty edits...
